First day with the B7610

[Harvster]

A few pics of the first outing on the new 7610. Had to dig a hole for transplanting a fig tree. Had to dig out the tree by hand at the old house. It was so nice to be able to move it by chaining it to the front bucket instead of trying to drag it. It took us 20 min to drag it 30 ft downhill to get it on the trailer. I can't imaging trying to drag it the couple hundred feet to it's location at the new house.
Pics are 1.fig tree, 2.old hole, 3.new hole and tractor, 4.glorious orange friend.

Just seeing the shovel and rocks in picture #2 is making my back hurt...

Congrats on the new toy. I wish I had that backhoe on my B7610.

Looks just like mine,except for mine has a Woods 6500 BH.If i could do again though i think i would buy the genuine kubota BH,more ground clearance.

Don't get all the work done too fast. Boredom will set in quickly.

I bought a B3030w/Cab this summer, I love the cab because it keeps you warm or cool and out of the dust and weather. However, when I see what all of you guys do with your backhoes, I wonder if I should of went without the cab and got a backhoe instead. Nuts... another lose, lose situation!

By the way, Nice Tractor!

Teeravis1,

I'm a translocated yooper myself (Ontonagon) and if I still lived there I think I'd go with the heated cab.

Harvster, I grew up in Wakefield, not too far from Ontonagon. How did you get transplanted out east? I spent a few years in Illinois and just got back into the UP about 2 years ago.

After grad school I got a job in Delaware. I've been to Wakefield numerous times for hockey, fireworks over the lake, and of course passing through on trips to the big city (Ironwood) for movies etc.
