5 Ways to Utilize a Backhoe Loader

The backhoe loader or simply called backhoe is one of the most versatile heavy equipment on any work site. Since it was first produced in 1953, the backhoe became one of core heavy equipment for construction, agriculture and clearing projects nowadays. It is sometimes described as a mechanical shovel and here are the five ways you can utilize the backhoe.

Clearing Trees – The backhoe’s durable arms could not only dig and break soils but it can also clear out vegetation and trees in a work site.

Digging Trenches – The backhoe’s bucket is great for trenching certain areas on a work site. With its bucket teeth, this would help in digging and gathering soil. The backhoe can also be maneuvered down a line to trench the soil for piping.

Grading Roads – Backhoes can also grade roads easily. With the opposite end of the bucket plowing the land, it can smoothen and plane the roads.

Cleaning the Work site – In a work site, it is common to see piles of rock and dirt or even removed vegetation and trees. A backhoe can easily clear those piles of dirt and trees by pushing it away from the area, clearing more space for the site

Clearing Landslides – In a tropical country like the Philippines, typhoons and heavy rains are common. These cause landslides that cover roads, pathways, and properties. With backhoe, you can easily remove piles of rock and soil to clear out the areas affected by landslides.

Being so versatile and useful in construction and agriculture sites, it is important to find a reliable and durable backhoe.
