Kubota L47 / checking out the backhoe

just making sure the backhoe goes on and off properly..!

[@FairlyInconspicuous]

Getting ready to take mine off for the first time. This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks.

Glad to help out!! Your welcome buddy

[@jtwindham3651]

Thanks im about to buy one.I haven’t been around a new one yet so that helped

[@ryanlynch2259]

Your welcome 🙏! Love that machine. Don’t let anyone borrow it..

It’s interesting to see the gauge pod move to the right. I guess that’s pretty handy for when you are on the backhoe.

[@ryanlynch2259]

I like that machine a lot.

[@roadglide1142]

That’s bigger than my BX lol 😂

[@ryanlynch2259]

Bx tractors are the best!

Definitely wanting to upgrade from my l3901tlb to one of these in the future. Any idea how much it weighs without the backhoe attached? I couldn’t find that info anywhere.

[@ryanlynch2259]

L47 is a awesome machine. I’m not sure about the specs.. but I do know it feels pretty good operating that machine,, it’s solid ..! not interested in the backhoe attachment?

[@Ryan_Maineaquaria]

@@ryanlynch2259 interested in weight without the backhoe for transport weight when doing 3 pt hitch work. Most of my backhoe work is within driving distance but I do a lot of grapple work for other people and there’s no need to haul around a heavy backhoe if it isn’t needed for every job.

Tractor without backhoe and front bucket is 7,200lbs. BT1000 backhoe is 1,598lbs. Not sure about the front bucket, but it's at least 300lbs. If you try and use the loader without the backhoe you're gonna find that the back wheels will come off the ground! A 400lb box blade on the back isn't even enough weight in my opinion. It's an awesome tractor. I've had mine for 5 years and almost 1,000 hours.

Dude, you just have to roll forward or backwards a little to change gears. Same with 4wd.

[@ryanlynch2259]

Yes sir ! Thanks 😊.
