Being new to the skidsteer backhoe business. I know very little. I thought I read somewhere ; dont lift your front wheels off the groung when putting your stabilizer bars down. Is this correct or should you lift the front tires off the ground. Thanks for your help

    It depends on the terrain your working in.It wont hurt enything if they are off the ground.Sometimes in tight spots like working beside a house I only put the outside rigger down.

    It should not be a problem at all. I see people do it all the time.
