COMMONLY CALLED “CAT” OR “JOHN DEERE” PATTERN CONTROLS. WOODMAXX BACKHOES UTILIZE A PROPRIETARY VALVE SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS THE USER TO CHANGE CONTROL PATTERNS BETWEEN SAE (SOCIETY OF AUTOMOTIVE ENGINEERS) OR ISO (INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR STANDARDIZATION) WITH THE FLIP OF A SWITCH. THIS IS HELPFUL IF YOU ARE ALREADY ACCUSTOMED TO ONE PATTERN, OR IF THERE WILL BE MORE THAN ONE OPERATOR USING THE SAME MACHINE.

REPLACABLE HARDENED BUCKET TEETH

THESE HARDENED TEETH WILL LAST A LONG TIME, BUT ARE A BREEZE TO CHANGE WHEN THE TIME COMES.

SMOOTH HYDRAULIC CONTROLS

ALL WOODMAXX BACKHOES ARE EQUIPPED WITH A SELF-CONTAINED HYDRAULIC PUMP AND TANK. NO NEED FOR HYDRAULICS FROM YOUR TRACTOR. THIS DESIGN IS SUPERIOR BECAUSE IT ENSURES THE PROPER FLOW AND PRESSURE ARE ACHIEVED AT 540 RPM PTO SPEED. THIS ENSURES THAT THE HYDRAULIC VALVES OPERATE SMOOTHLY FOR THE OPERATOR. SINCE ALL TRACTORS PUT OUT DIFFERENT HYDRAULIC FLOW AND PRESSURE, IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO MATCH A BACKHOE TO A TRACTOR CORRECTLY. OVER FLOW AND PRESSURE, OR UNDER FLOW AND PRESSURE IS ALMOST ALWAYS ENCOUNTERED. THIS IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE WOODMAXX WM-SERIES BACKHOE. ALSO, THE HYDRAULIC PUMP MOUNTS DIRECTLY TO THE PTO SPLINE OF ANY CATEGORY I OR II TRACTOR. NO PTO SHAFT MEANS NO SHAFT SIZING REQUIRED, AND NO POSSIBILITY OF THE SHAFT BINDING OF JAMMING. THIS DESIGN ALSO MAKES MATING THE BACKHOE TO THE TRACTOR EASIER, JUST ATTACH THE PUMP TO THE PTO ADJUST THE BACKHOE HEIGHT USING THE SUPPORT LEGS AND BOOM, BACK THE TRACTOR IN, AND ATTACH THE PINS. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE WITH BACKHOES THAT UTILIZE A PTO SHAFT TO POWER THE PUMP.

180 DEGREE BOOM SWING

THE BOOM ON OUR WM SERIES WOODMAXX ALLOWS FOR 180 DEGREES OF SWING FROM ONE SIDE TO ANOTHER. THIS ALLOWS YOU TO DIG INTO THOSE TIGHT SPOTS AND DUMP THE DIRT WHERE YOU WANT.

JIC HOSE  FITTINGS

WOODMAXX WM SERIES BACKHOES UTILIZE JIC (JOINT INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL) HOSE FITTINGS AND ARE RATED FOR 5000 PSI. FOR YOU THIS MEANS THAT IF YOU EVER NEED TO REPLACE A HYDRAULIC HOSE, THAT YOUR LOCAL TRACTOR SUPPLY OR NAPA CAN MAKE HOSES WHILE YOU WAIT. JIC FITTINGS ARE WIDELY USED IN HYDRAULIC FLUID TRANSFER AND TYPICALY VERY EASY TO COME BY. NO TRYING TO CHASE DOWN AN ADAPTOR BECAUSE OF MISMATCHED THREADS. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED WHEN SHOPPING FOR A BACKHOE. THEY WILL ALL NEED A HOSE SOONER OR LATE!

WOODMAXX WM SERIES BACKHOES USE A SPIN ON OIL FILTER THAT CAN BE CROSS REFERENCED WITH NAPA, BALDWIN, WIX, AND OTHERS. THESE EASY TO CHANGE SPIN ON OIL FILTER MAKES SERVICING YOUR WM-SERIES BACKHOES A BREEZE.
