I bought this Long backhoe this summer and had a couple tile holes to fix. I do understand that 3 pt. backhoes can be dangerous. I assume the danger occurs when you would be pushing with the bucket and the 3 point arms and upper link could raise up pinning the operator to the tractor. This backhoe is equipped with the straps (pictured) which will not let the 3 pt. hitch/backhoe raise. My question is when you get it all hooked up do take the weight off of the 3 pt. hitch lift cylinder(s)(either interal or external) and let the straps hold it in place? If you didn't lower the weight onto the safety/stablizer straps couldn't that be hard on the internals of the 3 pt. hitch or even bend the safety/stablizer straps if someone pulled the 3 pt. hitch lever to raise position? Thanks.
