We are currently looking at a BCS 852/853 to use to supplement my 4 wheel machines. I have a small Kubota BX25 and a larger 50hp Kubota that does most of the work. I am thinking of getting the BCS for around the house to help out with little jobs. Mainly mowing on the really steep slopes and around trees down in the woods where the 4 wheel machines don't fit very well or would cut down too much.
I also been kicking around doing some small scale mowing/brush hogging jobs and thought this may play well into that idea. Not looking for big properties, mainly real estate work and local people that want to clean up the backyard or weird smaller spot type jobs. Not planning to make a living off this type of work, but make a few bucks to help pay for eqpt./etc...
Have you found these to work well for that kind of jobs? Any major downsides?
Also thinking of the stump grinder for around the house, maybe the power wheelbarrow idea would be handy in the garden and yard where it would be tough with he tractors or they would tear things up.
I have a tiller for the small tractor (42") but depending on what the wife decides a walk behind may be useful for tilling also.
What are your thoughts on these machines and the ideas/uses above?
THANKS
