It covers bigger stabilizer pads, a redesigned control valve, retained boom float, new non-slip step surfaces, handrail repositioning, and pin storage, with a brief startup demo. It skips pricing, real digging, and detailed operation, making it best for buyers specifically comparing backhoe features and updates.
Posted by Vahrenberg Implement, a Massey Ferguson dealership channel, so expect a sales-oriented product walkaround rather than independent testing.
A feature with up, down, and a float position for the boom section, letting the bucket float across the ground for easier digging and backfilling.
Standard equipment is a twelve-inch bucket with three bolt-in teeth that can be replaced; a ten-inch bucket is optional.
New non-slip jagged edge surfaces and a weld-in step make it easier to get into the skid pads, and the handrail was repositioned for more entry room and easier lever access.
The new GC series, including the 1725M, 1720 GC, and 1723E, will feature this new backhoe.
