A backhoe loader can do a lot of things, but a
machine of this size can never match the
strength of large dozers or excavators. When
extensive excavation or earth moving output is
required, for example in mining applications,
the larger, more powerful machines are
required. In these cases, however, backhoe
loaders are often still on the jobsite– helping to
support and clear the way for larger machines.

backhoe loaders very popular
machines in developing markets
Size can also be a drawback: backhoes
will never outpace a 30-ton excavator
