TomSchmit 55 Posted April 22, 2016 Anyone know the weight of a Broadmoor 727 / 728 / 738 with or without mower deck? I am trying to help a club member by shipping a tracto by Fastenal, but have no way to weigh an entire tractor! Thanks - Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishnwiz 3,290 Posted April 22, 2016 I tried tractordata.com but did not come up with a weight which is a surprising because most times all the specs are listed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris727 2,149 Posted April 22, 2016 Have you gone through the main SimpleTractors page for each of those tractors? There is usually a spec sheet listed, sometimes with the approximate weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLT 725 Posted April 23, 2016 %008 weighs 336 lbs w/o deck. http://bsintek.basco.com/BriggsDocumentDisplay/heCyEN8ctF1rE3Cwa5kbp796Dq.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSchmit 55 Posted April 24, 2016 Thanks Bob - I could find no weight info on any of the Broadmoor specification pages on SimpleTractors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bassmanben 4 Posted May 1, 2016 380 sounds about right. I can pick up either end if needed. I also just lifted mine to service the belts and pivot by tipping it on its ass. Mines a 728. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrincheyOne 52 Posted May 1, 2016 Hint, work a deal with a local salvage yard, to use their platform scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bought my first car in 1970, a nice '64 Chevy II Nova Four Door for $400. Those were not inexpensive tractors! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSchmit 55 Posted May 4, 2016 The price list Tacey posted shows a "Power Lift Kit" for $144. What was this? I have not seen or heard of an electric or hydro lift for the old style Broadmoors! Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
