2024 HARBOR FREIGHT BACKHOE assembly in 7 minutes

[@bud1412]

Great, thanks the lousy directions would make it hard, your video really helps.

Glad it helped

[@def1791]

A lot of harbor freight products have very poor instructions for assembly

[@bespokebudgetbuilds]

@@def1791 for sure!

I'm considering buying one. Honestly thought Harber Freight would assemble it for you before you picked it up. For my needs I was considering leaving it hooked up to a Gator or riding mower to move around easier.. Seen another video of a guy that put wheels out on the front arms to keep it more portable.

@@Jonathan32177 it’s pretty hard to just “crawl” with it. I have a gator and thought the same thing. It might also help to have it hooked to something to get more weight on it.

Your wife a beautiful person great helper

[@mythrail]

is it compatible with mini excavator attachments?

[@bespokebudgetbuilds]

I’m not sure. There are no auxiliary hydraulics.

But where’s my 10mm socket 🤣🤣

Why waste thousands of dollars on a wimpy Chinese piece of junk?Just rent a real one !

[@bespokebudgetbuilds]

@@brucedale4465 I think there’s a point where it does make sense to buy this machine. It does decent for just digging trenches it’s just painfully slow. It’s not mine, I plan on buying a small four-wheel-drive tractor with a backhoe attachment. If it weighed another thousand pounds and you put another hydraulic pump on it that was faster, it would be so much more usable. I used it last week to take down a hill for a driveway and even though it’s really not the right machine for that it did pretty good. I live in a area that has tons of rocks, and I’m honestly surprised at how well it does.
