SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
1
The following precautions are suggested to help
prevent accidents. A careful operator is the best
operator.
BACKHOE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Read the Operator’s Manual carefully to acquaint
yourself with the backhoe. Working with unfamiliar
equipment can lead to accidents.
2. Use the handholds and steps when getting on and
off the backhoe.
. Replace safety and warning decals when they become
illegible.
4. For safe operation observe proper maintenance
and repair of all pivot points, hydraulic cylinders, hoses
and main attaching bolts prior to each day’s operation.
5. Always be sure of water, gas, sewage and electrical
line location when operating the backhoe.
6. Watch for overhead and underground high voltage
electrical line before you start to dig.
7. Operate the backhoe controls only when properly
seated at the controls.
8. Do not use the backhoe for a hoist.
9. Never allow anyone to get under the backhoe when
the boom or dipper arm is raised or stabilizers are
raised.
10. Always be watchful of bystanders when lowering
the stabilizers or operating the backhoe.
11. To prevent upsets, avoid full reach and swinging a
loaded backhoe bucket to the down hill side when
operating on a slope.
12. Always lower the bucket to the ground, shut off
the engine and apply parking brakes before getting off
the unit.
1 . Never attach pulling devices to the ROPS or
backhoe for pulling purposes, as the unit can tip
rearward.
14. Keep the operator’s platform free of debris.
15. Adequately block up the backhoe when it is
detached from the tractor.
Whenever you see this symbol it means:
TRACTOR SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not start the engine while standing beside the
tractor. Always sit in the tractor seat when starting the
engine.
2. Do not get off the tractor while it is in motion.
. Use an approved roll bar and seat belt for safe
operation. If your tractor is not equipped with a roll
bar and seat belt, see your tractor equipment dealer.
4. Always use the seat belt when the roll bar is
installed. Do not use the seat belt if the roll bar is
removed from the tractor.
5. Do not permit anyone but the operator to ride on
the unit. There is no safe place for extra riders.
6. Lower the bucket to the ground, shut off the engine
and apply the parking brake before getting off the
tractor.
7. Do not operate the tractor engine in an enclosed
building without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes
can suffocate you.
8. Never leave the unit when it is parked on an
incline. Always park the unit on level ground where
possible. If the unit is parked on an incline, always
lower the bucket so that the cutting lip contacts the
ground, apply the parking brake and securely block the
wheels.
9. Use care when operating on grades to maintain
proper stability. Also drive at speeds compatible with
safety, especially when operating over rough ground,
crossing over ditches, slopes, or when turning.
10. Use SMV warning signs on the tractor when
traveling on public roads both day and night.
11. Use the flasher / turn signal lights when traveling
on public roads both day and night unless prohibited by
law.
12. Never pull from the tractor rear axle or any point
above the axle. Doing so may cause the tractor to upset.
1 . Always check overhead clearance, especially
when transporting the unit.
14. Do not lubricate or make mechanical adjustments
while the unit is in motion or when the engine is
running.
15. Never make repairs or tighten the hydraulic hoses or
fittings when the system is under pressure, when the
engine is running, or when the backhoe cylinders are
under a load.
16. Always wear safety glasses when servicing or
repairing the machine.

GENERAL INFORMATION
2
The BMC Series LD6, Fig 1. and MD8, Fig 2. Backhoes are shipped complete (crated) less mounting kit and
bucket. To mount either of the basic Backhoes to a tractor, a mounting kit (for a specific tractor model) is required.
Also required is one of the three bucket options for the LD6 and one of the four for the MD8. Items unique to each tractor fit
up (pressure / return hoses, seat assemblies, mounting bolts, etc.) are included in the mounting kit for each tractor.
The BMC Series LD6 and MD8 Backhoe can be installed from the crate to the tractor in a matter of a few hours. The
BMC Series Backhoes should be installed on tractors that have a front blade of front loader that will stabilize the
front of the tractor. Installation of the front blade or front loader is covered in the appropriate manual.
The LD6 and MD8 Backhoe general specifications are listed on page 41 and 42. The Backhoes are identified by name
plates as follows:
This manual is divided into five (5) major sections:
Installation of LD6 Backhoe (Page 6)
Installation of MD8 Backhoe (Page 1 )
Installation of Buckets (Page 20)
Hosing of the LD6 and MD8 Backhoe (Page 21)
Operation of the Backhoe (Page 26)
Maintenance of the Backhoe (Page 6)
The mounting frame, seat and backhoe / tractor hydraulic interface is covered in the mounting frame installation
sheet. During assembly and when ordering parts, the right side of the backhoe is the same as the right side of the
tractor, facing forward in the tractor operator’s seat.
Your local tractor and equipment dealer is responsible for the proper assembly and pre-delivery servicing of the
backhoe.
