Benefits and Features

The BH130 Smart Backhoe does more than just turn an indicator light on in the cab; although it does that, too. The first step is attachment recognition. The D3 host machine recognizes that there is a BH130 attached to the machine. This activates a dedicated machine display to allow options for the BH130 to be selected. And as a Smart attachment, the BH130 allows for pattern change. That is, the existing machine joysticks are re-purposed to perform functions on the attachment.

Used in typical backhoe applications such as digging footings, basements, and drainage ditches, utility trenching, back-filling, and maintaining slopes and embankments in construction, industrial, and landscaping settings.

Allows operator to use BH130 from within the safety of the cab, without the need to remove the door or any additional hardware.

Cat® 3-ton (35-35 mm pin diameter) excavator attachment can be easily used with the BH130.

With the BH130 Smart Backhoe attached, the host machine has two modes: Machine Control mode and Attachment Control Mode.

Auxiliary hydraulic lines provide auxiliary flow to the end of the stick to operate Mini Hydraulic Excavator hammers, augers, ditch cleaning buckets, thumbs, and vibratory plate compactors.

Operator can easily switch the backhoe control pattern to their preference. (Backhoe-SAE, Excavator-ISO). A left lit mode light on the BH130 indicates Backhoe pattern mode, while a right lit mode light indicates excavator mode.

The BH130 comes standard with thumb mounting provisions.

Operated hydraulically, the backhoe attachment can shift left and right quickly and easily without leaving the cab. Allows the backhoe to be used close to walls and other obstacles.

Tool mounted and sealed from the elements, this holder includes all the operation manuals and maintenance guides required for proper operation of the tool.
