Most communities in the North have a Tractor Backhoe. These machines complete tasks with both the loader bucket on the front and the excavator attachment on the rear. They may be used for everything from loading trucks, digging, cleaning ditch lines, burying utilities, digging culvert emplacements and graves, and can be fitted with different attachments such as posthole augers.

The 2 week training offered by FCIT will focus on these tasks and customize the program depending on your needs.
