It does have a leak on the backhoe but I believe that’s suppose to be fixed.. Am aware it’s a repower but do you see what I am talking about by the downriggers there’s a set of foot pedals on the inside that I think do something? Whether it’s move the downriggers up or down or move the backhoe left to right?

The foot pedal is a custom addition. The top of the operator controls are not visible so this is a guess based on the side profile where the levers can be seen. There would have been 6 levers as new. The 2 out side levers of the 6 controlled the down riggers. One of those looks like is missing.

Another addition is something I have noticed on other back hoe sub-frames. The top link flat bar, attached just rear on the front wheels, angling up to the top connecting point of the hoe has been beefed up. The original top link was probably made of a 1-1/2 X 1/2 flat bar. It was not stong enough and would bend, letting the hoe tower tilt back into the operator seat. The solution on the one in your picture was to double plate the flat bar connecting link. Mine had an angle welded to the sides and notched to make clearance points. I have not came up with a plan on how to do a clean upgrade on mine, but it will not be put back together as originally built.

My bet would be the foot pedals are connected to the swing circuit. Case had larger machine early on that worked that way, and perhaps the PO was more familiar with that pattern.

Yep, my 680 swings that way. Gives me shivers when one of the pedals gets stuck depressed. :109:

@Merchlewitz on the big backhoes it's factory default. On yours it appears to be custom. It's a nice feature if done well. :thumbsup:
