PREPARATION AND ASSEMBLY

The backhoe is shipped from the factory in a basic, universal configuration that allows it to be mounted to
any model tractor / mini skidsteer with the appropriate mounting kit. This section covers the mounting basics.
Complete mounting instructions for your model tractor / mini skidsteer are covered in the mounting
kit instructions that came with your backhoe mount kit.

4.7.1 FOUR POINT OR BELLY MOUNT SUBFRAME KIT

On tractors, dynamic loading during operation can introduce high structural loads into the tractor frame and require
a reinforcing subframe.
A Wallenstein subframe is designed specifically
for your tractor model. The subframe, which you
have received as part of the backhoe, must first
be installed before you can install the backhoe
to your tractor.
If you intend on using this backhoe on a different
model tractor, contact your dealer or the factory
for details on the subframe kit for your specific
tractor.
Your model-specific subframe comes with
installation instructions that illustrate how
to assemble the subframe to your tractor,
and how to assemble the backhoe to the
subframe. Follow these instructions carefully.
Never operate the backhoe without the toplink
installed.
WARNING!
Risk of crushing injury or
death! Do not operate the
backhoe without toplink
installed.

4.7.2 TIEBACK KIT

For Mini Skidsteers, a model-specific Wallenstein
Tieback kit is included with the backhoe. The kit
comes with installation instructions that show how
to install both the tieback and backhoe. Follow them
carefully.
If you intend on using this backhoe on a different
model of skidsteer, contact your dealer or the factory
for details on the tieback kit required.
