Cat® Backhoe Work Tool Attachment Overview

[@syclone73]

put a electric over hydraulic control valve on this antique attachment . this would allow the operator at the flip of a switch to control the backhoe using the skid steer controls just like a mini excavator or a real backhoe . operator could then sit in comfort with the door closed to operate the attachment .

[@PolarBear00777]

syclone73 Totally agree! I have a backhoe attachment on my CAT 236B and it would greatly improve my comfort and visibility if I was simply able to use my in cab joysticks to control the backhoe! We do it for every other attachment so why not this one!

[@syclone73]

unfortunately the 236b has hydraulic pilot controls .the newer c and d model machines could be retrofitted with a kit to control this attachment . there is another option to use there existing caterpillar radio control box . this would allow the attachment to work with the older cat machines and competitors machines by only requiring power and ground to the attachment .

Two years later and this has came true

Someone should tell that operator that he can dump the bucket instead of pushing the arm up in the air.

@@catconstructiontrade thanks Paola, that is exactly the problem. A local dealer says it would fit, CAT chat-bot said it wouldn't.....

[@bozoone4464]

Why don’t they put a real operator on there. Pretty cool though

Хороша конечно экскаваторная стрела, но ради этого надо снимать дверку и пыль накопится в кабине, неприятно будет... А электроуправление почему не сделали??? Можно тогда и не снимать дверь...

[@juancamion5167]

La posición de operar el aguilón es muy incómodo los controles deberían llegar más SeRCA del cuerpo cuando uno está sentado al igual q el asiento no posee apoyacabeza

[@zachcholas1652]

They never have operators in these videos

[@46rambo49]

it's a band aid doing little well and a lot not as well.
