STRENGTH IN DESIGN 
The WoodMaxx backhoe attachments are a perfect combination of size, weight, and power. Light enough to move around, yet strong enough to get the tough jobs done. Some backhoe attachments boost heavier
weight, but heavier is not always better. Additional unnecessary weight only
adds stress to the frame of your tractor. WoodMaxx WM series backhoes attachments are
manufactured using heavy formed q-235 (American standard ASTM A-36) structural
steel plate, the strongest plate steel available. The pieces are CNC laser cut
so that they fit together perfectly, and are then precisely welded. This fact
combined with the structural design allows for the perfect combination of
weight and rigidity.
5 BUCKET SIZES TO CHOOSE FROM
WoodMaxx offers WM-series backhoe attachments in three sizes to accommodate almost any category 1 tractor. Our WM-6600 with a maximum digging depth of 7', the WM-7600 with a maximum digging depth of 8' are compatible with tractors equipped with a cat-1 three-point hitch, and the WM-8600 that offers a full 9' digging depth is compatible with cat-1 three-point hitch and also some cat-2 three point hitches (please notice that a cat-2 top link is required to use this backhoe with a cat-2 three-point hitch. Let us know when ordering so that we can provide the correct top link).
ITALIAN HYDRAULIC CONTROLS 
WoodMaxx WM-series backhoe attachments are now equipped with hydraulic control valves that are made in Italy
by Hydro-control. Known for their high precision engineered control valves, Hydro-control
designs and manufactures directional control valves for mobile applications and
offers some of the most dependable products on the market. This is the highest
quality hydraulic control valve available for a PTO backhoe attachments, and offers
extremely smooth and reliable operation. Hydro-control has been involved in
manufacturing hydraulic components since 1969, and has millions of products
throughout the world in some of the most demanding applications. The hydraulic
control valves on a backhoe attachments are the heart of the machine; this is why we chose Hydro-control.
These control valves are second to none and offer extremely smooth operation
for experienced operators, but are also very forgiving for novice operators.
REPLACEABLE BUSHINGS 
Over
time the pivot points of a backhoe will wear and require pin replacement. This
is evident when the various parts that make up the boom, dipper, and bucket
become loose and rattle. Due to the high load application of the pivot points,
this is a common wear item for backhoes and excavators. Not only does the pin
wear out, but the pin boss will also experience wear, so simply replacing the
pin does not return the backhoe to its original condition. That is why WoodMaxx backhoes are manufactured with replaceable bushings that are pressed into the
pin bosses. So when the time comes to replace the pins, you can also replace
the bushings. This will return your backhoe to its former glory... You are
spending a lot of money on an implement so this is a very important feature for
sure. Without replaceable bushings there is no way to return the backhoe to its
original condition and you will have to simply deal with a sloppy boom. This
feature is usually reserved for standalone backhoes and excavators, but is
standard equipment with any WoodMaxx PTO backhoe attachment. Additionally, WoodMaxx is the only manufacturer of PTO backhoes that offers this option, and an
option that should not be overlooked when shopping for a backhoe attachment.
ONE PIECE GEAR PUMP 
WoodMaxx backhoe attachments are equipped with an extremely reliable one-piece gear
pump made from high strength aluminum center housing and cast iron end plates.
These pumps are equipped with an internal spline and are made to slide right
onto the 1-3/8" spline of your tractor. No need to add oil to these pumps since
the lubrication is provided by the pumped hydraulic oils. Roller bearings and self-adjusting
wear plates make these pumps far superior to any pump/gearbox combinations
offered by our competitors that leak oil on the floor as soon as you disconnect
the backhoe attachment from your tractor. Go ahead and compare, WoodMaxx is
the only backhoe attachment manufacturer to offer such a robust pump.
EXCLUSIVE SAE OR ISO PATTERN CONTROL SWITCH 
Commonly called "Cat" Or
"John Deere" pattern controls. WoodMaxx backhoe attachments 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.
GRAPPLE THUMB (MECHANICAL OR HYDRAULIC)
The grapple thumb is incredibly handy for picking up rocks, tree limbs, and brush. The mechanical thumb requires the operator to position the thumb by lowering and inserting a pin to secure the thumb. The hydraulic thumb is simply adjusted from the operator's seat. The mechanical thumb upgrade is available for $215. Or you can choose the hydraulic thumb upgrade for only $545. Both upgrades are available for a limited time.
RIPPER ATTACHMENT
The WoodMaxx backhoe ripper attachment is a single structural steel claw with a replaceable hardened steel tooth that focuses the force of the dig to a narrow point. The ripper is handy for breaking up rocky ground, tree roots, stumps, and brush. The ripper is available for only $440.
BACKHOE BUCKET QUICK ATTACH
This optional attachment makes changing your backhoe bucket quick and easy. Fits all WoodMaxx backhoe attachments. Also works with ripper attachment. Only $269. 
RUBBER STREET PADS
Removable/replaceable rubber street pads on the stabilizer legs help reduce damage to the lawn, blacktop, and concrete. Standard equipment on WoodMaxx backhoe attachments.
REPLACEABLE 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 of our WoodMaxx backhoe attachments for sale 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 attachment 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 attachment.
Also, the hydraulic pump mounts directly to the PTO spline of any category I tractor. No PTO shaft means no shaft sizing required, and no possibility of
the shaft binding or jamming. This design also makes mating the backhoe attachment to the
tractor easier, just attach the pump to the PTO, adjust the backhoe attachment 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
backhoe attachments 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 typically 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 attachment. They
will all need a hose sooner or later!
EASY ACCESS CARTRIDGE TYPE OIL FILTER 
WoodMaxx WM series backhoe attachments utilize a cartridge type oil filter that is positioned directly inside the hydraulic oil tank through an easy access port. Positioning the filter in this location provides for greater protection from damage and ease of accessibility. These easy to change oil filters makes servicing your WM-series backhoes attachments breeze.
RUST RESISTANT POWDER COAT FINISH 
WoodMaxx WM series
backhoe attachments offer a superior powder coat finish that is baked onto the steel. This
finish is thicker and much more durable than paint to keep your backhoe attachment free
from rust and looking good for years.
