Have been bouncing around the idea of getting a backhoe to do some minor off and on work around my own yard only. It will be used on a Ford 801 diesel. (about 45 hp) I have rented in the past but having to reserve in advance; schedule time off work; and take a chance it does not rain just before hand has been a problem.

It has a PTO pump so I assume it has on board hyd sump. The digger sticks look to be about 5 to 6' long so it should dig about 10 ft. I took a picture of the model # but it did not come out. I think it said model 11_ _. I could go look again if that makes a differance. Please give me some pointers.
