I've seen that type but never ran one with that set up or at least can remember, been a long time since those days. I have run most models of Cat, 416,420D 426, Case 580's, Ford 555, 655, JD 310,410 Dynahoe & JCB, as a full time operator, and aside from utility work on the street, don't think I would want the vertical type.
The fold down type, allows you to run one side up onto a bank, while the other is on flat ground, you can get em up clear out of the muck or soft conditions, or leave em down for quick use to stabilize if you are on a slope and it gets out of hand. I swing the hoe to the high side and sometimes extend the stick out to counter balance on a slope, to get through or whatever, I also let those outriggers ride low, just in case, have planted them a few times, never came close to going over, but certainly have tested the boundaries just the same. A rubber tire hoe is something to master, they don't like slopes, most are a bit tippy, nice to have that working radius with the fold down outriggers.
