pull it .......sure! Engaging the pto? Dont think it is gonna make it!

Unless your grass duties are very light ...... look at a 48" rear mower.

I am not sure that B7001 would even LIFT that 72" mower!

A 6’ brush hog is going to be way more mower than 13hp at the pto can handle. Your machine may spin a finish mower, but very likely too heavy to lift. I think you are in the 4’ brush hog, and 5’ finish mower range.
I ran a 6’ finish mower on a heavier B8200 and it managed in frequently cut grass. I had to add 150 lbs of weight up front to keep the wheels on the ground.

I believe that it works out to 4hp PTO output to every 1 foot of implement so a 48 incher would be just about the biggest you could do,, Not to mention the exorbitant wight difference

Far too much mower for that tractor. A 48" would be about right.

If I planned only to mow my lawn, I'd get a 60" finish mower.
