Case D100 backhoe

[Eugen]

@JSinMO I've never seen this page before in any D100 manual. Thank you Jeff! Soo, 5200 lb digging force for the bucket seems to me a lot more realistic than 10k.

@thebuildist , Bob, looking back at what I wrote I realize that it's way more exaggerated than it most likely is in reality. My imagination gets carried away sometimes. Probably my biggest fear is getting stuck in mud; that would happen with a factory 646 tlb just as well, and indeed with 4x4. What am I saying, just tracks help in those situations..

@thebuildist I think flippable outrigger feet are a great idea. I just happen to have broken the pin that holds the foot onto one of my stabilizers. Not sure if you need it but I thought I would post some pictures and measurements for reference. IMG_4432.jpeg

Also here are some of the numbers on the D100 hoe from the manual. IMG_4438.jpeg

That manual is in our technical library here.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for posting this. I seen these spikes before somewhere and was thinking if fabricating some. I believe they are the ticket to stabilize the hoe. Harry
