The HOC8700 backhoe attachment defines the term value. The unit is composed of heavy duty steel welded together to ensure maximum durability. The high quality of this product ensures longevity and performance under the most extreme conditions.
The HOC8700 has a three-point hitch. This backhoe will operate on category 1 or 2 tractors that has at least 25 horsepower at the PTO. The HOC8700 offers a full 9' digging depth and is equipped with a 3-Tooth 12 inch bucket.
Hydraulic Valves
HOC backhoe attachments are equipped with top-of-the-line hydraulic control valves made of the best materials for long term reliable use.
Easily Replaceable Wearable Parts
With time and heavy use, the wearable parts such as pivot points will need attention. As part of recommended maintenance, parts such as pin, pin boss and bushings should be replaced when worn to support longevity of the unit. The HOC backhoe attachment is designed for easier replacement of these wearing parts.
High Quality Aluminium Gear Pump
HOC backhoe attachments are equipped with a high quality aluminum gear pump. The pump is designed such that there is no need to add oil as the lubrication is provided by the pumped hydraulic system that oils the pump.
Quick Attach
The HOC optional quick attachment makes switching between the ripper and various bucket sizes incredibly easy.
Hydraulic Thumb Option
The hydraulic thumb allows to easily pick objects like rocks, landscaping materials like tree remains and bushes. You can choose the hydraulic thumb upgrade for only $600.
Rubber Pads Mounted on Stabilizer Legs
The heavy duty rubber pads enable stabilizer legs to reduce damage to the ground and are included free of charge.
Heavy Duty Replaceable Bucket Teeth
These heavy duty teeth are bolted on the bucket and can be easily unbolted and replaced as needed.
Standard Hose Fittings
The HOC8700 uses standard fittings which are readily available at your local hardware store.
Smooth Hydraulic System
The hydraulic pump and tank included in this model is self-regulating and does not require hydraulic draw from the tractor. This ensures proper flow and pressure. The hydraulic pump attaches to the PTO spline of any category 1 tractor eliminating the need for a PTO shaft. This design is much easier for an operator attaching the backhoe to their tractor.
180 Degree Boom Operation
The boom on our HOC8700 allows for a complete 180 degree rotation from left to right and the superior design also enables the operator to reach into tight places with ease.
Powder Coat Paint
The HOC8700 backhoe attachment comes with powder coated paint that would offer years of rust free protection.
