Backhoe Loaders Buyer's Guide
- Tier-II engines provide more torque and horsepower with better fuel economy than older diesel engines. However, they're mandated on all new backhoes, so don't be too impressed by dealers who pitch them as a feature. If you're shopping for used backhoes, though, you should be aware of the difference.
- In environments that are particularly tough on air-filled tires – such as demolition sites and recycling operations – foam-filled rubber tires are a good option. They're more expensive, but will save you the expense and downtime of blowouts.
- Be sure to talk to other companies in your industry to ask what types of equipment they're using and where they got it. Hands-on experience with the vehicle you're considering is by far the most valuable information you can use in your purchasing decision.
- OSHA rules require specific training and safety procedures for all heavy machinery operators. Make sure your dealers can either provide the necessary training or recommend a third-party source.
