Bare with me here as I am a hobbyist with my backhoe and not a pro like you all. :notworthy I have been working on digging my pond for the latter part of the summer and continuing as we speak. I have been able to keep the water level down so I can continue to dig pretty well. I am working on the deepest part right now and my pumps cannot keep up with the water. I am affraid to submerge my digging bucket to continue to dig. I've heard people say since the hydraulic system is pressurized, water cannot leach into the system. I've heard people tell me not to do it. :spaz My bucket cylinder has a small weep and it makes me nervous to dig with it underwater.
I need some honest opinons on this matter from some of you if you would please. Is it safe to dig underwater or not?
Thanks again.
