The main point is a practical safety lesson: hydraulic pressure left on the backhoe caused it to drift overnight and dent his garage door. He also shares a quick take on why he chose the T474 over the T25 and strongly recommends adding AC to the cab. No specs, no demos, useful mainly as a cautionary note for new owners.
An owner-operator sharing early impressions from his own property, with follow-up videos apparently planned but not yet posted at the time of this upload.
The owner had the backhoe suspended in the air and did not let all the pressure out of the hydraulics, so it drifted overnight and caused a divot on the garage door.
Put the bucket down on the ground and take the pressure off the hydraulics so it does not drift overnight.
Yes, the owner strongly recommends AC over heat only, since the glass cab amplified sun glare and got hot quickly without it.
He chose the bigger model for a bigger backhoe, bigger bucket and front capacity, and more horsepower to avoid lag on his steep driveway.
