It covers backhoe specs (dig depth, digging force), loader lift capacity, three-point hitch rating, and a brief drive/demo, though no actual digging or loader work is shown.
Posted by Vahrenberg Implement, a Massey Ferguson dealership, so the comparison and pricing details lean toward steering buyers toward a purchase from them.
The GC1725M has 10 more engine horsepower, higher PTO horsepower, more hydraulic flow, armrests, a power socket, and a rear work light, but costs about $1,475 to $1,650 more than the GC1723E.
The CB65 backhoe on the GC1723E digs 78 inches deep, with 2,476 pounds of digging force with the bucket and 1,748 pounds with the boom.
The FL1805 loader lifts 922 pounds at the pivot pin at its maximum lift height of 74 inches.
As of August 2020, the list price was about $19,180, which is lower than the GC1725M by roughly $1,475 in cash price or $1,650 with low-rate financing.
