The Woods looks like an awesome bh, but a several questions come to mind.
1) Do the 3-pt. arms have to be removed to attach either bh?
2) The Woods has a stabilzer spread of 100", the Kioti 76.8". The Woods wins, right? I dunno, many's the time I had to cozy the bh up close to the house and was grateful for short stabilizers.
3) The Kioti uses its own subframe, designed for its tractors, and the Woods has a "4-pt." mount, which is dealer assemled onto the tractor. Which is more convenient to use, and which is stronger?
4) The Kioti bh has these power numbers: bucket 3,550; dipper 2,225.
The Woods: 4,180; 2900
At first look this numbers make the Woods like the easy choice - BUT - What do they mean in real life digging? The numbers for both of these machines far outstrip my bh650, and I'm not sure the extra power of the Woods is worth the extra money. If it is, I wanna know.
