TMG-SBH60 9-Foot Skid Steer Backhoe Attachment
Overview
The TMG-SBH60 is the larger TMG skid steer backhoe attachment, built for 30-100 HP loaders and supplied with a 15-inch digging bucket. The 9-foot class reach and 180-degree boom swing make it useful for drainage work, small utility cuts, irrigation, landscaping, and farm excavation where a skid steer backhoe can replace a second machine for occasional digging.

Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You want more reach than a compact backhoe attachment but still want to use your skid steer carrier
- Your work includes short trenches, drainage cuts, landscaping excavation, and occasional utility work
Skip if
- You need production trenching speed - use a trencher for long continuous runs
- You regularly dig below the attachment's reach or need tight excavation control beside buildings
Also consider
- TMG-SBH55 if your machine is smaller or the 12-inch bucket is enough
- Chain trencher for long utility lines
- Compact excavator for daily excavation work
Best suited to mid-frame and larger skid steers with universal quick attach. Confirm machine ROC and hydraulic flow before buying because the attachment weight sits forward of the coupler.

Care & Maintenance
- Inspect chain teeth after every use — worn teeth slow penetration dramatically and increase drive motor load; a full day's work can dull a chain in abrasive soil
- Lubricate the drive chain and boom sprockets before each use and again after every 4 hours of continuous trenching
- Check the boom bar for cracking or deformation after work in rocky or abrasive conditions — boom cracks propagate quickly under the bending loads of trenching
- Clean soil from the drive motor cooling fins and chain case after summer use — compacted soil on the motor causes overheating on long cuts
- Store the chain with teeth protected from ground contact — resting a chain on carbide tips on concrete chips the teeth before you've even used it
How to Connect
- Attach trencher boom using Bob-Tach
- Connect high-flow hydraulic couplers
- Test chain tension and direction before cutting
- Call 811 and verify all utilities located before first cut
