Case added quite a bit to its M series backhoe loaders, by switching to family 3 engines to meet Tier 2 emission standards. The new machines of the M series have quieter, larger displacement engines for better lugging capacity. They also have increased torque rise for faster cycles of loader and backhoe operations.
With 500 hour intervals of oil changes and easy to access transmission mounted hydraulic pumps,the M series is surely a force to be reckoned with in the world of backhoes.

Backhoe Loader
Also referred to as a loader backhoe, the backhoe loader is an engineering and excavation vehicle that consists of a tractor, front shovel and bucket and a small backhoe in the rear end. Due to the small size and versatility, backhoe loaders are common with small construction projects and excavation type work.
Originally invented in Burlington Iowa back in 1857, the backhoe loader is the most common variation of the classic farm tractor. As the name implies, it has a loader assembly on the front and a backhoe attachment on the back.
Anytime the loader and backhoe are attached it is never referred to as a tractor, as it is not normally used for towing and doesn't normally have a PTO. When the backhoe is permanently attached, the machine will normally have a seat that can swivel to the rear to face the backhoe controls. Any type of removable backhoe attachments will normally have a seperate seat on the attachment itself.
Backhoe loaders are common and can be used for many tasks, which include construction, light transportation of materials, powering building equipment, digging holes and excavating, breaking asphalt, and even paving roads.
You can often replace the backhoe bucket with other tools such as a breaker for breaking and
smashing concrete and rock. There are some loader buckets that offer a retractable bottom, which enable it to empty the load more quickly and efficiently.
The retractable bottom loader buckets are often times used for grading and scratching off sand.
The front assembly on a backhoe may be either removable or permanently attached. Often times, the bucket can be replaced with other tools or devices. In order to mount different attachments to the loader, it must be equipped with a tool coupler. The coupler consists of two hydraulic cylinders on the end of the arm assembly, which can expand and retract to allow different tools to be attached to the unit.
There are several types of backhoe loader brands, including New Holland, John Deere, and Case. Some will offer you cabs, while others won't. The newer types of backhoe loaders even offer you air conditioning, radios, and other accessories that make you feel like you are working with luxury.
Common with excavating jobs, the backhoe can serve many purposes. It can haul equipment and supplies in the loader bucket. Another great use is to cover up dirt when filling in trench lines or covering up pipe that was just put in the ground. The backhoe attachment at the rear is ideal for digging water pipes and sewer pipes.
The best thing about the backhoe loader is the fact that they are easy to operate. You don't
need to be a rocket scientist to fully operate this nifty piece of equipment.

Case CX700 And CX330
The company of Case has done it again, by introducing yet another spectacular excavator, the CX700, which weighs in at 70 metric tons and represents a newsize for Case, fitting perfectly between the CX460and CX800 models. Case has also taken advantage of Tier 3 technologies and upgraded the CX330, increasing the power and improving fuel economy, all while adding features that will enhance comfort for the operator and simplify maintenance.
Power
The CX700 is a powered by a high performance, fuel efficient Isuzu engine that is completely Tier 3 certified. With an operating weight of 153,400 lbs.and over 400 HP, the CX700 is capable of digging to 31 feet 11 inches with reaches up to 46 feet 11 inches.
The frame for the CX700 is based on the larger CX800 to ensure optimum durability and reliability, especially given the powerful performance specs the machine calls for.
New to the Case CX700 is a switch that will allow you to give priority to either the boom or the swing functions. The CX700 also offers retractable sideframes and an optional counterweight removal device,which makes transporting easier than ever before.
More durableThe Isuzu engine that powers the CX700 is fully electronic and uses a high pressure rail system that provides a 5% increase in HP and also gives the excavator 10% better fuel economy.
Several enhancements have been made to the CX330 upon releasing the CX700, including the overall reliabilty and durability of the machine, which includes the strength of the front idlers by beefing up the thickness and design of the center hub and improving the track seal design for increased life.
Upgrades
Several of the features that come standard with theCX700 are upgrades for the CX330 that will also be applied to other large Case excavator models that move forward. The key upgrades include ease of maintenance and servicing. Both the CX330 and CX700 models feature an easy maintenance system, lubricated bushings throughout the boom and arm, which provides extended lube periods of up to 1,000 hours. The engine oil filters are now mounted vertically in the pump house access area, which allows for easier access and servicing.
The addition of a modified oil drain plug with a check valve will make it easier than ever to change oil. Both the CX330 and CX700 both offer finer fuel filtration, up to four microns, which provides increased uptime and improved fuel performance.
The upgraded cooling system features a design that reduces the stacking of coolers for better cooling efficiency and also improves access to ease the removal of debris. In addition to this, the CaseCX700 also features a hydraulically driven, thermostat controlled reversible fan for improving the cooling of the engine and easy cleanout of the materials.
