I just bought a Branson 5520ch for my hobby farm last spring. Ive got 50 hours on it, bucket, grapple, and snowblower (canada). Its been great. It's so much easier to use than than any of my previous mid size tractors. Im really looking forward to blowing snow with it. I will probably buy a backhoe next summer, as I want to to dig some drainage, and a root cellar. Instead of buying a counterweight box, I just welded one myself. Its a farm tractor, not a matching outfit. I also have an old box blade and hay cutters. For a couple with 130 acres, it's been the absolutely perfect tractor. I have a 25hp Bobcat tractor for lawn work, hauling water, etc that my wife can blow snow and work with whem im gone as well (im a pilot), but for larger jobs, the Branson is exactly what I wanted. It's been amazing for my sawmill. It's the perfect size. Spent the summer milling lumber to build a new barn next spring.

That's awesome we love ours and glad we got the backhoe it is used a lot lol. Make sure to check you grease fittings I did a video on them already and some of the fittings on the backhoe were bottomed put on the roll in causing the grease to not get pumped in . When we removed the fitting there was a half moo cut into them from the roll pins.

We purchased a new 2020 Branson 5520C cab last November. Have about 35 hours and it’s been awesome on our 31 acre farm. Plenty of power.

Thanks for the comment ... the dam issue is at the 5 min mark. Nothing wrong with the tractor still going strong its a great tractor without all the bells and whistles. Love the backhoe it's well worth it . We use it all the time .

Off the wall question, but I just bought this same tractor “used” w/ 60 hrs and I love it. Been using the backhoe for the past month so didn’t know it (took it for granted) but the top link didn’t come with it. What’s the stroke on yours, extended & collapsed?
