I know this may seem silly to some of you, but I am a fairly new tractor owner. When I bought my RK37, last year, the dealer told me it would accommodate any attachment a skid steer would. That being said, I have been eyeing a wolverine skid steer trencher attachment. It appears it would mount ok, but I am not sure of the hydraulic hookup, or functionality of it, once hooked up. I have a lot of trenches to dig that will be about 1000 ft, each. By the time I rent a trencher, or pay someone, I would just as well purchase the trencher. Do any of you know if the trencher would function properly after it is mounted on the tractor? I have been thinking about the joystick function, and I do not know if it would operate all the functions, as necessary. Thank you in advance.
Will skid steer attachments fit on a RK-37 tractor?

Skid steer forks, buckets, Etc. may fit your tractors QA.
But your tractor will not run most skid steer attachments that are hydraulic driven without a lot of extra pumps, hoses, and $$. It simply does not have the hydraulic flow needed.

They do make 3pt trenching machines similar to skid steer type. Pto driven. Everything Attachments.

An expensive alternative would be an axillary hydraulic pump that is powered by the PTO. 2nd suggestion is rent a mini excavator when you have all your trenches planned and mapped. Depending a lot on width and depth, you could do a lot of trenches in a few weeks.
