[QUOTE="SkidRoe, post: 78070, member: 3290"] Actually with this style of hoe, you actually drag it!! Since you have limited stick breakout force, backing up is your only recourse. From what I have found, most of the digging power comes from curling the bucket and lifting the boom. It takes a bit of effort to get the trench to depth, but once you are there, it digs pretty well. I was able to get Dad's unit up and running on the weekend on the 773. It has a lot more stick breakout force than the one on the mini machine. For the $500 a piece it cost to built them, we are plenty pleased with both of them. But yes, I will agree, for serious trenching, rent a mini-ex!! SR [/QUOTE]
