Case 580C Backhoe is a medium-duty backhoe manufactured by Case IH, an American agricultural machinery manufacturer. It debuted in 1975 as a successor to the 580B, which debuted in 1965. The redesigned 580C Case had a closed cab with integrated operator controls and a full-width operator’s platform. Case 580 backhoe is a small tractor with a backhoe attached; they are not intended to be used as tractors in and of themselves. They have a low center of gravity and are simple to handle as a result (which also makes them harder to tip over).

I'm using a 580C. It's a fantastic machine, and I adore it!
The brakes are the major disadvantage of these backhoes, in my opinion. They are ineffective, especially when trying to back up steep slopes with a bucket full of stones or mud.
Another thing to bear in mind is that they are lightweight slopes that may be hard on tires if not properly maintained. If you leave them sitting for lengthy periods of time without operating them on a regular basis, excessive heat will build upon the interior of the tires, leading them to blow out prematurely.
I hope this was helpful!Case 580c Backhoe Review
