1 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of a Wallenstein
Backhoe!
This equipment has been designed and
manufactured to meet the needs of a discerning
property owner planning on digging, excavating or
trenching.
Designed for sub-compact, compact utility tractors, and
skidsteers, Wallenstein gives you precision and power
at your fingertips. Digging depths range from 6'-4" to
11'-4" depending on your backhoe model. Wallenstein
is a rugged backhoe that’s ready to sink its teeth into
any task you give it, from landscaping to concrete
footings.
The over-arching design of the new curved boom
allows a deep dig without impacting the edge of
the excavation. This protects the backhoe from
unnecessary damage and prevents ground from falling
back into the hole. The 920XT features an extendible
boom, capable of hydraulically extending an extra 24".
Safe, efficient and trouble free operation of your
Wallenstein Backhoe requires that you and anyone else
who will be operating or maintaining the machine, read
and understand the Safety, Operation, Maintenance
and Trouble Shooting information contained within the
Operator's Manual.
The tractor must have a front bucket loader installed
before installing the subframe and backhoe. The front
loader is required to offset the weight of the backhoe,
as well as provide the stability required to operate the
backhoe safely.
This manual covers Models GE605, GX620, GX720,
GX920 and GX920XT manufactured by Wallenstein
Equipment Inc.
Keep this manual handy for frequent reference and
to pass on to new operators or owners. Call your
Wallenstein dealer or the Distributor if you need
assistance, information or additional copies of the
manuals.
OPERATOR ORIENTATION
- The directions left, right,
front and rear, as mentioned throughout this manual,
are determined when sitting in the operator's seat and
facing toward the boom.
