I need some advice. Do you guys think a B7500 (21 hsp, hydro, w/ loader) is enough to run a 60" Landpride 3 pt. finish mower? I would mostly be mowing some fields and an old orchard that I have reclaimed after mowing for several years with a brushhog. I might also try mowing my own home lawn with it too, though it may prove a little cumbersome to use the Bota for that. I currently use a 60" hydro. riding mower. Thanks for your help!

I think you will be fine. My brother had a 5' Landpride he used behind a 16 hp MF 1010- it was underpowered but he managed with it. I have a 5' RFM I use behind a B2620 (26 hp) and I never lack for power. It sounds like I use it the same way you are planning-I'm mowing acreage that I own-it was a former farm fileld that I used to bush hog, but now use the RFM on-it sometimes goes 2-3 weeks between mowings, but I still can mow it with my set up.

I agree. Should the growth get ahead of you just cut 30" at a time the next time. Where there is a will there is a way they say. :D
