I have a Bush Hog Model 762 3-point back hoe. Have used it for ditches, septic tank holes, lateral lines for drain field, digging out farn roads for culverts, digging holes for disposal of rocks and steel scrap, etc. I reall works well. Do not try to use on stumps - bad idea. Recommend you get it set up with seperate hydrolic pump, powered off the PTO shaft. Mine is set up that way, has its own oil reservoir. This feature assures plenty of GPM for the backhoe, and makes it movable to any small tractor; even those with poor gpm hydrolic pump ratings. That means you have a MUCH larger market to re-sell it to; people with their n fords, small MF, ACs, just about all of them. I keep mine off the tractor, sitting on my concrete barn floor, can install by myself in about 15 minutes or less, remove in 10 minutes or less. The secret is the level concrete floor.
Good luck with yours. Don't listen to people like "goofus" he probably can't operate a hand held shovel, doesn't know which way to face the shovel blade.
