A year and a half in, the 7060 has been a great tractor.

I run a BP20 bale processor with it in the winter, I run a John Deere 530 baler with no problem in 6th or 7th gear, I run a 16' hay one with it, an old 917 flail mower and a post pounder. I towed home a heavy 16x 20 building with it on bin dollies about 20 miles.

The tractor has done everything very well. It has about 260 hours on it now.

The problems I have had are due to the guy who assembled it.

1. Hydraulic line on loader came loose while loading my gravel truck with loam.
2. Alternator belt cam loose.
3. Rad hose had very slight leak at thermostat.

The dealer changed in my area and the new dealer is a bit acreagey for my liking.

All in all, it is a great machine. I wish I bought the 8560 do the 1000 pto but power wise the 7060 has been fine. It handles big round bales with ease.

Good to hear it is meeting your expectations. Can a 1000 pto not be installed on the 7060?

I'm not sure if that can be added to the 7060 or not. I added it to my 9540.

I remembered your thread, that's why I wondered if the same retrofit could be done to the 7040/60.
