BCS 725 Tractor



I acquired a two wheeled tractor, a BCS 725, made in Italy, last weekend.  It's still in good condition, needs some service and elbow grease to get it back to ranch presentation.  Nothing that a piece of sand paper and paint can't take care of.

It's a pretty awesome machine for the small backyard rancher or homestead.  It'll do good on the ranch here. The engine is from Kohler and is rated at 8 HP.  It came with several attachements:

  • Cutter Bar (sickle bar)
  • Plough (plow)
  • Chipper/Shredder
  • Dozer Blade
  • Adjustable Ridger
  • Rotary Hoe (tiller)
  • Small Utility Dump Trailer

This new equipment will greatly aide in the expansion and maintenance of my ranch.  Check out the video below from BCS America.  





No, I will not need a snow thrower here on the island.  But, I will get me the following implements in a year or two:
  • Hay Baler
  • Wood Splitter
  • Large Utility Trailer
  • Sulky
  • Power Sweeper
 Maybe after 3 years, an upgrade to the 800 series.  But first off, let's see what the 725 will do on Matua Ranch. 



Keep Smiling.
