7' Tractor Backhoe with Curved Boom, Italian Original WALVOIL Seven Way Hydraulic Control Valve, 12" Bucket, Hydraulic Grapple Thumb, Self-Contained One-Piece Gear Pump&Hydraulic Reservoir included, for 25-45 HP, Cat 1&2 Hookup, BH700Pro

Fit depends on more than horsepower. The BH700Pro is designed for 25–45 engine HP tractors with Category I or II 3-point hitches and weighs approximately 1,091 lb with the bucket. It is a rear-mounted attachment—not a complete tractor or backhoe loader. Before purchasing, check tractor weight, wheelbase, lifting capacity, mounting requirements, and PTO clearance. Follow the product manual’s light-duty digging restriction for Category I mounting. Our 3-point backhoe attachment buying guide outlines additional factors to review.

Its digging circuit uses a self-contained, PTO-driven hydraulic pump and reservoir, rather than drawing flow from your tractor’s auxiliary hydraulic outlets. The system is equipped with an Italian-made Walvoil seven-way control valve and is designed to operate at 540 RPM PTO speed. The listed 2,320 PSI operating pressure describes the attachment’s hydraulic system; it is not a requirement for pressure supplied through tractor remotes. A compatible PTO connection and correct mounting are still necessary for operation.

Only if the PTO-mounted pump cannot fully engage because surrounding tractor components leave insufficient installation clearance. Check the space around your tractor’s rear PTO against the pump dimensions before ordering; horsepower and hitch category alone do not establish this fit. If interference exists, contact Farmry with your tractor model and photos to confirm whether the Farmry PTO shaft extender is suitable. It is not a universal adapter or an accessory every installation requires.

Yes. The standard package includes a 12-inch bucket with replaceable teeth, while compatible alternative buckets are purchased separately. Select bucket width around trench dimensions, soil conditions, and the material you need to move—not simply the widest available option. Farmry’s backhoe bucket width guide explains the tradeoffs. The 15-inch standard bucket lists BH700Pro compatibility, but linkage pins are not included. Confirm the mounting hardware and package contents before adding accessories.

Match the required trench profile and available space, not just the headline depth. The BH700Pro has a 7-foot maximum digging depth, while its specification for a 2-foot flat-bottom trench is 6 feet 10 inches. Allow clearance for deployed stabilizers, the curved boom, and the 180° swing arc around obstacles. Its 3,180 lb bucket digging force is not a lifting-capacity rating. For farm drainage, landscaping, or excavation tasks requiring different reach or tractor capacity, compare Farmry tractor backhoe attachments.

Plan for assembly and pre-use checks, rather than assuming the attachment is ready to operate immediately after delivery. Follow the model-specific product manual for component installation, hydraulic connections, mounting hardware, and fluid checks. Do not power the hydraulic system until assembly is complete. Routine maintenance includes greasing pivot points, checking fasteners and hitch linkages, inspecting bucket teeth and hydraulic hoses, and verifying reservoir oil level. Follow the manual’s shutdown and pressure-release procedures before maintenance, and contact Farmry if you need assistance identifying parts or confirming setup requirements.
