A bigger machine might make sense for what I'm doing. I'm worried about the weight or lack of on the 7500. Also I found a used BL4690 for about half price and figured that since it won't fit the 7500 I would go ahead with the bigger tractor. The soil here is almost all clay and I think the extra weight might come in handy. Maybe what I really should be looking at is will there be that much difference between the 7500 and 7800/2910? Any backhoe experience with these two?

I manage a small community water system and most of my repairs and maintenance involve me on the working end of a shovel. I own a B7500 and I'm thinking of buying a backhoe to help me keep the water flowing. Has any one had any experience using a B7500 with a backhoe. Are they hard to attach and remove(I use the tractor a lot for other things)Am I asking too much of the tractor to dig up water lines in clay soil? (3-4 ft deep). Are there any brands better than others? Anything else I should consider? Any help is appreciated.
