It covers the redesigned one-piece hood, front push bar, integrated quick hitch, and new HVAC cab styling, and it directly addresses a likely buyer question: no backhoe is compatible with the cab on any of the new 1M, 1E, or 1R models. Best for shoppers wanting a quick first look at the new styling and that key cab-versus-backhoe tradeoff.

No. There is not enough room for a backhoe with the cab on the 1E, 1M, or 1R models, even though a backhoe is available on the open station 1025R.
It has a one-piece solid hood with a front push bar that rolls forward, giving easy access to the battery.
The new quick hitch is integrated into the front frame of the tractor.
