Fully-PF Backhoe Loader Version 2

Parts: 1967
Weight: 2,6 kg

 

After many requests for instructions for the PF Backhoe loader I built 1,5 year ago, I decided to rebuild the model, improve it and make building instructions. It has been my most complex Lego-project so far.

Technically, it’s very similar to the first version. That means there are 8 motors for 9 functions:

• Driving & steering
• Outriggers
• Frontloader & bucket
• Backhoe, dipper & bucket
• Backhoe rotation

 

Technical differences with the first version are:

• Front bucket now has the big LA’s instead of the mini LA’s
• Dipper is 1 stud shorter
• More compact design
• Speed controll for driving

 

Other improvents are esthetical:

• It now has a seat and steering wheel inside
• Panels in the front section
• Fenders for the front wheels
• Rear-fenders with round curve
• Roof with curved sides

 

I’m very happy with the end-result. The new version looks nicer and all the functions work properly.

 

Instructions

The main goal of this model was to make building instructions. It took a long time to make them, but they’re finally ready. They come as 254-page PDF-file, including parts list. You can buy them for € 10. If you have PAYPAL, you can send it to my Paypal-adress: info@jurgenstechniccorner.com. After receiving payment,you’ll receive a link and password to download and unpack the instruction files.
