Craig, do what I did. Buy yourself a shop compressor and use air pressure to blow out the dirt...you would be suprised what a good job it does and how many uses you will find for a compressor once you have one. I bought a really good one and it was only about $400. You can get then for around $100 too...<br>Works better than water, even removes grease and oil drippings and just about anything else.<br>Good luck.

Hello,<br>I am hoping to add a bachoe to my JD 5410 in the spring; so far I have only loodked at the JD 10A; anyone know what the equivalent Woods backhoe would be? Also, anyone have any idea on a ball-park selling price for either the JD10A or the equivalent Woods model? Anyone have any recommendations one way or the other (JD vs Woods vs any other brands?)<br>Thanks all once again.

I would agree that just about anything over 4 inches is fire wood..except the acres and acres of dead and downed pine/hemlock that I need to gradually cleanup. A lot of this stuff is dead and dry so I would imagine that it would not tax the chipper too much, as long as it would physically fir into the chipping mechanisn.<br>Anyway thanks for the response(s) everyone...how about some price comparisions or brand recommendations?...I know Woods makes good stuff, but they do tend to be expensive.<br>Thanks.

This was not a front mount, but a rear-mount pto setup...maybe we are not comparing apples to apples...I didn't price the front mount units.

JD Backhoe question: I am considering adding a backhoe to my JD 5000/ten series tractor at some point down the road. When the backhoe is attached, and you are sitting in the backhoe seat, is it possible to move the tractor? It seems to me that if you are trenching, you would need to hop in and out of the seats quite often in order to keep moving the tractor along if it can't be done from the backhoe operators station...thanks all.
