An optional seventh valve section with control lever and hydraulics is available for standard backhoe units. This is required to drive dipperstick-mounted attachments such as hydraulic hammers.

Optional Auxiliary Hydraulics — Extendahoe Backhoe
When the 580K is equipped with an Extendahoe backhoe, the Extendahoe hydraulics can be disconnected and used like auxiliary hydraulics to drive dipperstick-mounted attachments. This is easily done by locking the Extendahoe in the fully retracted position with a pin. Then tee off from the Extendahoe hydraulics and use the Extendahoe section to drive the auxiliary attachments.
