My John Deer Horror Story | Working the Deere today on the Farm!
What happens here
The operator gets into the John Deere tractor and starts the engine. He then proceeds to safely prepare the Woods BH100 backhoe for operation by removing the pins that secure it in its transport position. This includes removing two large pins that lock the main boom to the backhoe's frame and a smaller pin that secures the bucket. Once the pins are removed, the backhoe is carefully lowered slightly to the ground.
Goal: Unlock and position the backhoe for active digging.
