CID's X-treme Back hoe is an excellent tool for digging ditches, removing stumps and digging footings. With the option of adding a thumb, you can move logs, chunks of cement or just about anything else you can think of. Buckets come in sizes of 8", 12", 16" and 20". The bucket is powered by an American made 3" x 16" cylinder. With 7' of digging depth and 14,000 lbs. of ripping force, it is an aggressive digging machine.
