Been offline with ISP problems, but wanted to say Thanks for all the help. I bought the BX22 w/60" mower. I have mowed, loaded and dug merrily away. Yesterday cut down a 45' tree, then used the backhoe to dig out the root and a hole to bury it in. My neighbor who has a Kubota K-48?, and who uses it for living was really impressed with how smooth it operated and its capabilities. The only complaint I have is that I am 4'10' and even with the seat as close as possible, I can't sit back and still reach the pedals. All in all, very happy. :o)

Wow, first time I've heard that one. The seat on the BX is way too complicated to try to re-engineer for a petite operator.
Do you have any hiking boots? I have some machines that I can fit into with running shoes that become uncomfortable with boots just because of that extra inch of sole. Maybe that inch would help you out.
Or maybe an extra cushion velcro'd to the back of the seat would help.
You bought a very good and capable machine. It does have to best "touch" I have experienced so far on a backhoe.
