What is a "backhoe"?
A backhoe is a piece of heavy equipment commonly used in construction, farming, and landscaping to dig, lift, and move materials. It has two main components: a digging arm with a bucket on one side and a loader on the other. The digging arm is used for tasks like excavating trenches or holes, while the loader can push, carry, or scoop materials like dirt or gravel. Backhoes are mounted on wheels or tracks, making them mobile and versatile for various tasks. They are widely used for projects requiring digging and material handling in one machine.
