A backhoe is a multi-purpose machine used for digging, trenching, backfilling, and material handling. The rear-mounted digging arm (the 'backhoe') is used for excavation, while the front bucket (the 'loader') is used for moving or loading soil, gravel, and other materials.

Its versatility. A single backhoe can perform the work of both an excavator and a wheel loader on a smaller scale. Because it is wheeled and can be driven on roads (with proper permits/precautions), it can easily travel between different job sites.

Backhoes are primarily sized by the dig depth of their rear hoe, which can range from about 12 to 16 feet or more. The size you need depends directly on how deep you need to dig.

Stabilizers are the two hydraulic legs at the rear of the machine. The operator lowers them to the ground before digging. They lift the rear wheels off the ground, creating a solid, stable platform that prevents the machine from moving or tipping during excavation.

A backhoe is a single machine with a loader on the front and a hoe on the back. A mini excavator is a dedicated digging machine with a rotating house (cab and boom) that offers 360-degree rotation, making it more efficient for continuous excavation in one area.
