Small tractors doing big work.

Hooray for small tractors!

Sizewise I think it's more comparable to a B series than the BX, which I think it's a bit smaller, but I've never seen it side by side. I might be wrong.

Other than that, you get all the good stuff that make the operator more comfortable and more user friendly, like power steering, live PTO, all the eletronic stuff, suspension seat, synchronized gears in the gear model, hydrostat model, higher flow hydraulics and easier to add valves, quick attach loader, backhoes, etc.

A true 3 point hitch, that the B7000 doesn't even have unless you get the 3 point kit. These were made to be used with a rototiller that uses a proprietary attach system.

The list goes on and on. It's all I remember at the moment.

ptsg, sorry if I misunderstand. the 7000 didn't come with a 3 point hitch? It looks more capable for garden plowing etc with the tires, belly height etc.....

Girlwhowantstractor, are you really a girl who wants a tractor? I bought my mother a 2816hst in 2010 but she passed away only 2 years later. Its a little bigger physically in size for this thread I suppose. But she loved it. Wish I bought it sooner for her.

Yes, that's it. At least here in Europe, they did come with a rototiller that uses some weird system. However there is 3 point kits available to make the tractor more capable.

I have a Massey Ferguson 1705 and some of the things I have done with it will make you scratch your head and ask how did that little tractor do all that but just take your time and these over grown lawn mowers will surprise you.

My 27hp/24pto JD 3005 continues to amaze me with what it does... most recently, and likely again today, runs my dad's old MF 12 square baler.

This is my brother. Sometimes I had to stand on the draw bar to keep the back wheels on the ground.

My kubota l3301 has been fantastic. Does way more than it should. This picture doesn't do it justice but it has cleared a bunch of trees (pushed them over) to allow for better use of the land.

Snow moving for a 1/4 mile is a breeze along with shortening days off of my firewood cutting chore. Love this tractor.

Just wanted to open a little thread of sorts. I was always impressed while searching the net of all these really small tractors doing heavy work, or being worked hard over the years. Some of those videos in eastern Europe showing the guys with their little tractors are impressive. Some of those videos of the B6000, B7100's, or those little B1620 Kubota's just to name a few. Or some of those lesser know makes that are used to their full potential. Especially when the guys have all the attachments for them. Using the tractor plus the power source (pto) to perform work. Anyone got any pics, post them here. I'm talking maybe 25 hp or less.

I have seen some people take joy in forcing small equipment past it痴 rated capacity . It don稚 see the fun in early component failure and accidents that damage or destroy man or machine .
