Abstract
A backhoe is mounted to a rear portion of a loader by means of a locking sideshift mount. The sideshift mount includes a main frame fixedly mounted to the loader, and a slide frame which is slidably mounted to the main frame for transverse movement between the left and right sides of the loader. A pair of locking apertures open downwardly from a lower surface of the slide frame. A pair of stabilizers are mounted to the rear portion of the loader, adjacent the left and right sides of the main frame. Locking pins on the stabilizers extend upward and are cooperable with the locking apertures. When the slide frame and backhoe are positioned on the left or right side of the main frame, and the stabilizers retracted by hydraulic cylinders, the locking pins will engage the slide mount and prevent movement of the backhoe.
