B01 Series Compact

The B01 series bridges the gap between sub-compact and full-size compact tractors. With 21-23 HP diesel engines, 3-range hydrostatic or gear transmissions, and significantly more lift capacity than the BX, these tractors handle serious property work — loader operations, food plots, fence building, and more — while remaining small enough for most residential properties.

💪

Step-Up Power & Capacity

The B01 series delivers noticeably more capability than the BX. Engine horsepower ranges from 20.9 to 23.3 gross HP, but the real difference is in hydraulics and lift capacity — up to 8.3 GPM hydraulic flow and 1,411 lbs of 3-point lift capacity, nearly double what the BX offers.

•3-cylinder Kubota diesel — 20.9 to 23.3 gross HP
•PTO HP from 17.4 to 19.4 for running implements
•Hydraulic flow of 7.0 to 8.3 GPM for responsive loader operation
•Category I 3-point hitch with 1,301-1,411 lb lift capacity

⚡

LA435 Swift-Tach Loader

The LA435 loader is a significant upgrade from the BX-class loader, with 948 lbs of lift capacity — enough to handle full pallets of feed, round bale spears, and heavier landscape materials. Swift-Tach mounting means you can still remove it in about a minute when you need a clean front end.

•948 lb lift capacity at max height — nearly triple the BX loader
•Swift-Tach tool-free attachment system
•Quick-attach bucket interface for fast implement changes
•Curved boom design maintains forward visibility

⚙️

Transmission Options

Unlike the BX (HST only), the B01 series offers both hydrostatic and gear transmission options. The 3-range HST gives you infinite speed control with more range than the BX's 2-range unit. The gear transmission (B2301) provides 9 forward and 3 reverse speeds for operators who prefer mechanical control.

•3-range HST with speed-matching cruise control
•9-forward/3-reverse gear transmission available (B2301)
•Both transmissions paired with 4WD standard
•Independent rear PTO on all models

🔧

Implement Versatility

The B01 series handles a wider range of implements than the BX thanks to more PTO power and a stronger 3-point hitch. Mid-mount mower decks in 54-inch and 60-inch sizes, the BH70 backhoe, box blades, tillers, and post hole diggers all work effectively with these tractors.

•54-inch and 60-inch mid-mount mower deck options
•BH70 backhoe compatibility for serious digging
•4-point front hitch for snow blades and other attachments
•Independent 540 RPM PTO for agricultural implements
