Gettin the 7610 dirty

[duce50]

I wanted to express my thaks to everyone out there that assisted my decision on a Kubota, and a Markham tooth bar. Over the past weekend I moved about 20 ton of gravel and crushed lime at my new horse barn. The 7610 did well and I enjoyed the work. I did have to use a 55 gallon drum on the rear (filled) for counter weight and after about 15 minutes learned the best way to scoop. She'd no skidsteer, but she did well. I now have a whopping total of 11 hours on the ticker and I'm looking forward to many more.

Thanks again.

You will find with time you can do a lot of digging, when you work with a skid steer of equal capacity the tractor becomes very enjoyable.

You should be digging in low range with about 1/2 throttle minimum if not just a bit more to 3/4 when broke in. Practice makes perfect to getting the bucket to the best position to fill it quickly. Just have patience as the job will get done. Good Luck!
