Go with a sub frame mount....you won't regret it. Especially when you wanna walk the tractor around.

This would be tough on the 3 pt. Or most BH's for that matter.

If that is true, I would think they are the newer, smaller backhoes. I have a Bradco 511. The biggest Mahindra has branded. It's as tough as the 6520 4WD it is mounted on.

A lot of uneducated customers think that they are going to buy a small backhoe, and plan on just plucking out tree stumps in one swipe. I have experience with many that don't think I know what I am talking about when I tell them they are expecting way to much out of the backhoe.

Everyone should figure out what size tractor and backhoe they need, then buy one size bigger. So people should buy 2 sizes bigger. I wish I would have went with the 7520.

When I was shopping for my first tractor the Kioti dealer told me that if I was going to dig anything more than flowerbeds with the CS2410 I would not be happy. He told me that he had been getting many returns due to failures on that model. Maybe he just wanted to sell me a larger (more expensive) model but that is what he told me and that was enough to steer me somewhere else.

The frame-mounted BH that came with my Kubota BX25 works fine, and is plenty tough enough.

But would it be big enough for your needs?
