Read articles →This is a real-world jobsite video rather than a review: the owner uses the LS XR3135's backhoe and loader to cut back a bank and widen a gravel pad for a travel trailer, then backfills a low spot and preps for gravel. It shows the backhoe cutting an edge, loader shaping the slope, and backfilling, over roughly 1.5-2 hours of work, with some time-lapse cleanup. Best for owners curious how this tractor handles real earthmoving tasks, not spec comparisons.

The backhoe cleaned up the edge quickly, giving a nice fresh line that made for a quick cleanup afterward with the loader.
The owner used the backhoe to reduce stress on the loader, scooping loose dirt and shaping the bank without stressing either piece of equipment.
The project took about an hour and a half, maybe two hours, including cutting the bank, backfilling, and cleaning up loose dirt.
