weighing in the neighborhood of 800 lbs. How would my Kubota B2710 handle moving this around my farm? Tractor has fluid in tires and a front end loader.

I use a 6" Farm Pro (Jinma) with my B2910 with no problems .. I would think you would be fine .... provided you have a FEL on the B2710.

My B7800 lifts it easily but the unit is quite top-heavy. I also use a Pat's Easy change which moves it back another 3 inches or so, which makes the weight distribution even worse.

I find that lifting it all the way up can make the tractor quite tippy on slopes that I would normally have no problem with. I lower it until it just clears the ground, and drive very cautiously across such spots.

You might also check with other 2710 owners to see if your HP is adequate. I would consider the B2910 or B7800 as minimal if you are chipping near its capacity.

I'm one of the owners that have had good experiences with it overall.
