Put this video up on heavy equipment society so they all can make a comment 😂 lol

Loved how on Facebook people were running their mouth about you not knowing what you were doing when you posted that pic in the operators page! Gotta love a backhoe!

Thirty years of working in swamps, I have a lot of experience in getting stuck. It took him 5 minutes to do what should have taken 1. He had the right ideas, he just couldn't put them together. I have a JD 510, no front wheel drive. From the start I would have pushed down with the front bucket, that would stabilize the front. Push down with the hoe and shove the back end over. Lower the stabilizers to the ground to stop from sliding back into the hole. Reach out and anchor the bucket in the ground. Raise the front bucket and stabilizers. Put the machine in low gear and start pulling, when it stops moving shove the stabilizers down to stop from rolling back into the hole. Put the shuttle shift back in neutral and reach out and anchor the hoe bucket again. Raise the stabilizers, put it back into reverse and finish pulling yourself out. One minute, two at most.

Yup exactly. I have 4wd and sometimes I don't even use it cuz the front wheels will dig themselves deeper spinning while you are pulling yourself out with the tail and running it in gear.

That makes me feel better. You actually know what you're doing and it still took some effort. I got my Case580SE stuck like this once and it took me about 6 hours. But then I don't have 4x4, that's like cheating. lol.

Dennis Hill if you have a front bucket and a good backhoe hydrological system you don’t even need wheels haha

I was thinking in the beginning that it was going to be a pretty short video knowing the level of skill you have. It was still fun to watch

Ah! The feeling of stuck and helplessness. Everyone should have to experience in life. I spent many hours stuck out mudding my Yota! It's fun!

I have found that if I put the front bucket down flat and get the front end up on top, maybe even tip it forward if pulling myself out, or roll it back a bit if I have to push myself and while pushing/pulling with the boom, move side to side a bit and basically "wiggle" it. Can make a huge difference

Thank you very much. Your Video helped me get out. I was about to call rescue truck until I saw your video. I learned that I need to use both the front Bucket and the backhoe to push and get out. Thanks to you and Bill Gate that brought us the internet.

Something Ive learned from watching.......If I lean to the left it doesnt help you out any faster lol

Good job. I sat here in front of my computer and twisted, grunted, tightened my muscles all in an effort to help but you pulled it off, ha.

HA. I literally found mr self leaning in and on the edge of my seat there towards the end. Great vid, thanks for running and grabbing the camera.

Hey man, great video. I was stressing out...note to self, don't go drunk backhoing!!! Thanks again!!!

Good job as always👍 keep up the good work! Really enjoying the channel👍

Not too bad getting it out. Growing up running backhoe's in wet area, lower your front bucket all the way down and then dump the bucket like 10-15 degrees, that will act like a mud mat and help keep the from out of the mud while your pulling yourself through.

I see you took the advice of all the awesome operators on Facebook

I wish I had been there to help. And by "help" I mean "watch".

nice recovery! just took ya some time and thinking. well done

Did that once in deep snow a few years ago, I got one of my co-workers to man the loader and gear shift while I ran the backhoe pulling it on to solid ground. There was a lot of laughter.

It'd give your pet snake a chance to escape while the backhoe's sat on it's belly Chris Lol 😂

on the bright side u did a good job mixing the dirt in ;)

Reminds me of the Octopus ride at the fair!!! Thought running front and back at once was impressive, but then you had to show off and add a third degree with the stabilizers.... Impressive!

A+. Don't listen to the haters. I wish you were closer because your work is top notch. Especially the pond work

HAHA. I just take another loader or something and tip it over 1-2 times untlll its good to go. Dont know why Letsdig didnt do that :)

“Well, Stanley, this is another fine mess you’ve gotten us into”.

I've done the same thing before but it was only the front end stuck so deep the axle was buried in the mud. Where I got stuck was like quicksand at the time you could walk on it and it was solid but if you stopped and stood there you would start sinking. At the time we did not know that it was like that. To this date there are two stacks of wood about 6 ft tall buried in that location.

Man, you are good in an excavator. Lmao! It's all good, at least you got out.

20 years experience and that's how you get out of that hole

Should have used your back arms to keep you from rolling forward. Got smaller bites with you bucket and boom cause the closer that boom and bucket is to you the more strength and hydraulic pressure to pull yourself. Pull your arms up when you went to pull or push and down when you needed to adjust your front bucket so it wouldn’t roll back into the hole and would be some what more level. You did good though man you got it out!!

This is the first Time I have seen you look like a rookie lol. Nice video though

You got some awesome skills chris

Thinking like an excavator operator. Should have used the outriggers to stop yourself fallling back into the hole when you repositioned your backhoe.

Only time a 4 stick backhoe is better lol You can push/pull with one hand while using the other hand to turn the wheels/push with the front bucket

The man is an artist!

Awesome vid. I like how it only took under 5 mins to get it out. Your an amazing operator.

I'm squirming in the seat, trying to help it along!!

Been driving tracked machines so much you've forgotten how to get the wheeled machines unstuck.

I kind of like the joysticks better. It was a pleasure operating a CAT with joysticks for a couple of days. But I have a small backhoe loader with a similar stick arrangement like in this video so I am able to see what I like best.

That was fun. Harry but fun never the less!

The struggle is real!!

Why didn't you set the outriggers when you were reciting at the beginning? Every time you reset it rolled back in the hole

That's entertaining!

All I have to say is ExtendaHoe! Works wonders in good old times like theses. lol

Nice job

Always fun trying to pull yourself out

Sweet!

That would make a great ride at disney world.

haha that was cool.

When I try that I just wallow down deeper and end up calling my husband to bring the big chain to get my 35G out.

next backhoe upgrade. an articulated one :D

It has the two little stabilizing feet, the bucket and the back loader. It makes me wonder, is it possible to make the backhoe walk on them like a spider or something?

Well it came out so it's all good. I know from what I've got stuck in here, like unexpected frost boils that break through and open up a swamp suddenly. There is no exact science to pulling a backhoe loader out on it's own, It either works or it don't L.O.L

The loader was holding him back a few scoops of dirt under the machine does wonders

Now for detailing, wash and wax.

It was never stuck in the first place. It is almost impossible to get stuck in one of those

@@simonsimon557 Showing track machines 360° but not 180° . I drove one for years. How can you get stuck when you have a back hoe and a powered front bucket ? You dont need the wheels, you just walk yourself out with the hydraulics.

If it happens too often you could build some smaller mud mats like the ones you use with the excavator.

If you just had 9 hands...

good job... stabilizers down a ways when lifting back end...?

You made it look tway too easy chris

No, you ain't stuck!

I was digging last year and the Case nose dived into a underground spring. The backhoe was getting swallowed... with the hoe pushing down and getting sucked into the ground we were able to stabilize the machine with 20ft logs. Nothing like watching the earth swallow heavy equipment. Now there is constant water running where the backhoe was, ungodly cold water.

Sounds sort of like when a dozer slips beneath muskeg. Can't stop it, and you usually never see the equipment again.

Got to try my hand on my friends sisters tractor mount backhoe digging a test hole make sure it worked still and then with 10 min of self tought experience she wanted lessons on her backhoe since she never used it. Little tricky tryin to move smoothly and in sink. You got it out thats what matters. I got my tractor stuck in the woods it took 2 1/2 hrs with a 4 ton come along to get unstuck but we all screw up you shouldn't have there well and i shouldn't have been where i was either just yours came out easier using the hoe vs a come along

I'm ignorant so here goes. It looked like your differentials were only limited slip. Do they not lock? Left rear and right front tires spinning...

Nice

Oh yes, I have been there myself, and my backhoe is 2 wheel drive.

Very nice again Chris, realy nice to see how you unstuck it letsdig18 😲😲😲😲😲😜😂😛😂😜😂😛😂😜😂😛😂😜😂😛

I've seen stuck before, and it looks a lot like that.

I did the same thing with my case. took two of us. one worked the back and the other the front. had to dig to bed rock. three feet deep for seventy feet long.

Never give up..just like life.

What year backhoe is that? Do the hydraulics lose much power after the machine gets older, even if it is maintained well?
