Zach, you supposed to use the outriggers and backhoe to remove backhoe from tractor. It’s why the pump has the extra feet of hydraulic hose. With pump running, drop outriggers and drop dipper so bucket is on ground. That is what holds the unit upright so you can remove. The rams will most likely settle in time, so when you reinstall, hook up pump first to tractor, it’s why you have extra hose..get the outriggers and dipper back to where you need them and hook up backhoe.

Obviously I know money doesn't grow on trees, but I think once you have this backhoe and realize all the things and different ways it can be helpful then I think you'll want to upgrade to a proper backhoe pretty soon. I haven't ran a 3 point before so maybe it's more capable than I think but I'm guessing even a older machine will have many more uses and might end up not hurting the wallet as much you would expect.

I use to work for a company that made powdered metal components. The dust was mostly iron, graphite, and zinc sterate. Really heavy and nasty stuff when it mixed with hydraulic oil leaking from the presses. I had a vacuum line made that would reach down into the pits under the presses and suck up all the crap so the crew didn't have to get into the pits and shovel. We took a piece of metal tubing about 10 feet long and put a 1/4" air nozzle into the side of the pipe about 6" from the end that pointed back toward the other end. We pumped 100 psi shop air into the nozzle. That created a vacuum to lift the powder and crap into the pipe then the air nozzle blew the junk up the pipe into a 55 gallon drum with a filter bag over a vent in the top of the drum. It worked great. You could do the same. Just make the pipe long enough to reach into the bins. It would work even better on the light stuff in your bins.
