my 580D

Bought this to install septic system and water lines on my farm. Really smooth machine with low hours came with forks and bucket thumb.View attachment 161343

If you have a moment could you send me a few pics of the thumb? I'd like to add one to my 580D

She old , ugly , worn out, currently undergoing and engine rebuild and repair as well as a reworking or the loader pivots.... but’s she’s loved and she’s paid for lol

Changed front bucket penetrating tips for a blade. Made it out of old rail road lower part of a rail. B\c mostly I work on the city streets and it will clean the mess better.

Middle part of a rail put on rear part of a jaw

Lots of utilities put in recently with the case 580k 4x4 extendahoe- electrical conduit, sewer line, water line, all at the new shop. The $350 I paid for two buckets (12” trencher and 42” muck bucket) have paid off many times over

Utterly unrealistic! I don't see cigarette butts, or tobacco spit. Clearly an imposter!
Every used machine I've ever looked at needed a hazmat team to pressure wash it first.

Made a doz. of these and gave them away here's my neighbor's son a few years ago he dug up half the yd.

Here's my 1972 Dynahoe 190

I still think there should be more of a choice for sideshift backhoes in usa/canada

I had one, not worth it.

I had one, not worth it.

This is a great thread and over here in Australia we rather like our side-shift machines' which in the case of CASE emanate from Europe.

If the unit is designed to have it
and you have any want or need or just have a preference and availability then go fer it.
Strapped to the back of a MF40 TLB ?
not so much

Evening all, Not my backhoe, but Council's road maintenance unit, the two crew wanted it secured so they left it just opposite my driveway overnight and I took this image.

Six years ago this machine was the prior role equivalent.

Can it be six years? I think daylight saving must have erased one month from our year for it to feel 'just the other day'; Then again it is true!

My "new" loader. 1971 MF50A as far as I can tell:

It came with some issues but we are working toward resolution. Many of the hoses are still 47 years old.

After bursting one on the hoe I replaced all the loader hoses inside the cab.
I could not imagine sitting in the cab with an explosion of hot hydraulic oil.
Lots of pedals and levers.

Could use some real tractor tires as well:

But she digs! The earth will be moved...

Not sure of years, but it surely got no more 4000h work

Not mine but I operate it.

I bought this 580D from a buddy of mine who's dad passed. His dad had Dementia and for some reason started randomly tearing machines apart. I brought this thing home in buckets and bought a manual and started putting it back together. Its a great machine and and has a ton of power. 4-1 and extenda hoe. Wife is operating it in this picture for the first time. This small hole is about 45 minutes work.
