I think you are underestimating your need for a compact tractor.
With horses you have lots of needs. When you get the tractor and start using it you'll find your need grows.
I have a BX2200 and mow 2+ acres. It's the best mower (shy of one of those zero turn units) you can buy.
Very stable and steers easily on a dime. I have the loader and it is a great tool, I use it often and it has alot more power than I expected. I dug 4 feet of a hard pan bank out with it. It took some time with the little tractor, but it did do it. It also does a great job with gravel etc, I lifted around 800 pounds of gravel with one scoop
I also have the hydralic balde and that works very well at clearing snow.
I personally think you should go larger than the BX. It will mow your 4 acres quickly with little effort.
Where I thnik the BX will be too small is in towing capacity and 3 pt hitch capacity.
It can only tow 1700 pounds, with manure I would think you will be towing lots more.
The BX can run a post hole digger but can only go down about 3 feet, tractor just isn't tall enough to run a long digger. The BX can pull only a small box blade, no more than 4 feet wide, and has limited lift capacity.
Overall it's an awesome machine for mowing and moving snow. The front end loader far exceeded my expectations, the 3 pt meet but certainly did not exceed my expectations

Where are the grease fittings on the BX series?<br>The owners manual is terrible, says you only grease the battery, no metion of any fittings. I found a grease fitting on the foot pedal.<br>It would seem there should atleast be one on the front axle pivot.Is there a more complete aftermarket/dealer shop manual for the BX and where can I get it?

Is there a Kubota Plow that will fit the BX that has hydralic angle?<br>The dealer is telling me that the only one called out is the TG2754.<br>The dealer is not real interested in helping.<br>I heard that a 2763 (60" with hydralics) will fit the BX.<br>Can anyone help me?<br>Is the loader valving enough to run a hydralic blade, or is additional valving required?

I have read many links and it seems the BX2200 can handle mowing and a front end loader work easily. But, can it handle a back blade or a box blade? How well does it do with moving snow (2' and more) with those little tires? Can it run a post hole digger with the low ground clearance?Will the B7500 do a much better job or is a back and box blade to much to ask for a compact tractor to handle?Glenn
