What Is a Skid Steer Backhoe Attachment?

A skid steer backhoe attachment is a hydraulic digging attachment made for skid steer loaders and compact track loaders using a universal quick-attach system. Unlike a 3-point PTO backhoe for tractors, this type of backhoe attachment is designed for hydraulic-powered operation, quick hookup, and better maneuverability on active jobsites. It is a practical choice for operators handling drainage ditches, utility trenches, landscaping projects, and light construction work where compact machine access is important.

How to Choose the Right Skid Steer Backhoe Attachment

Choose your skid steer backhoe attachment based on hydraulic flow and pressure, machine lift limits, required digging depth, bucket width, and the type of jobs you handle most often. Operators doing deeper trenching or utility installation may prefer the BHS820 Pro for its added reach and bucket size. For lighter digging work, smaller machines, or tighter work areas, the BHS700 Pro may be the better fit. Before ordering, always confirm hydraulic compatibility and attachment requirements for your skid steer or compact track loader.
