Upgrading from B7510 to B3030 with Cab.

PSDStu · Nov 30, 2007

Looking to upgrade from my 7510 to a 3030 with Cab.

Have 24.5 acres, 5.5 acres are mowed with finish mower, and about another 10 acres are bahia pasture grass, the rest is woods.

Main reason I am upgrading is that I am getting toasted while mowing and bush hogging each summer here in Florida and would really like having an AC cab.

I am trying to decide whether or not to keep my 48" Woods RC, and 48" boxblade or to go ahead and increase both to 60"?

Going to keep the 60"Woods FM, Landscape rake, and 5 1/2' Tandem Disc.

I'm not oposed to keeping the rotary cutter and box blade but not sure if they would be to narrow for the rear of the 3030 with R4 tires?

Thanks,
Stu

Go big or go home

Seriously - I went from a TC18 (same size as 7510, less HP) to the B3030. 4' implements are about a foot too narrow for the B3030. You'll not be able to get close to trees etc. and you won't be making the most of your newfound HP.

I have no advice; just wanted to say that my body seemed to be turning green while reading your post. Congrats!!!

BTW, in examining the name of this town you live in "Marianna", are you sure you don't have some other purposes you're going to be using this tractor for??
