will 709 backhoe work on a 763?

carl johansson · Aug 7, 2013

Hey guys,
I just came across a used 709 backhoe attachment that sure looks like it would be fun. but before i go any further toward lunacy, will my 763 carry and pump enough to run that 709 attachment (I do not believe my 763 is HO, if that matters)
and what would be a resasonable price for the backhoe attachment, used , in good condition?
thanks
congratulations Tazza, you are a true icon in the skid steer world, and have helped a whole boatload of people, including me, numerous times - thanks so much!

You'll need to get the large cast iron brackets that attach to the 763 under the "fenders" at the front of the machine. Those can be found on eBay for about $250 but shipping is going to be brutal. I purchased a decent 709 from local Bobcat for $2500 and I thought I got a good deal. Minimal slop in the pins, good hoses, 12" bucket and good seat. Expect to pay $2500 to $4500. Note that backhoe has an early version of a "quick change" bucket. You remove two bolts and a bracket, then the bucket can be slipped off. Handy, but not exactly "quick change".

Comments:

The 709 is characterized by the single bucket mounting position for both straight

wall digging and power digging. Offers ground clearance for a 6 inch curb. It will

not

fit 840s or the 873. *709 backhoes with vertical stabilizers and serial number

of 299 and below will not fit 753L, 763, 773, and 7753. Those with serial number
1199 and below will

not fit 853 or 863. Note: 730s, 740s, and 750s series

loaders with 54" offset rim option will

not allow mount clearance. Safety chains

must
be installed on this backhoe. If your backhoe does not have a safety

chain, contact Bobcat Company service for a kit at no cost.
