Where is the NATO receptacle typically found on a backhoe loader?

The NATO receptacle, which is used for refueling the backhoe loader, is usually located behind the battery box. This positioning allows for easy access while ensuring that the receptacle is shielded from direct exposure to elements and potential damage during operation. By placing it behind the battery box, manufacturers can also facilitate a more organized layout of the machine's components, keeping the area near the rear of the machine clear while maintaining safety and efficiency during refueling practices. This strategic placement is designed to enhance operational safety and streamline the refueling process without obstructing the operator's access to other critical controls and functions within the backhoe loader.
