I'm not sure they ever made one for the B7100, can't imagine it would have enough flow in the hydro system. There is the option of a 3 point BH with a hydro pump running on the power takeoff. But, I wouldn't recommend a 3 point BH, they are tough on the tractor. In fact, people have torn their tractors in 2 with them

There is the subframe mounted, PTO powered B670.
But they are pretty rare, and usually beat up.
I have this one, and another that is so bad it is essentially an ugly parts pile.

They most certainly did make them. Even for the b6000. Yes I understand how the hydraulics work on the 7100. Yes I agree 3 point is not the way to go. Thanks for the response

B7100 specs show a hyd. flow of 3 gpm.
A 16 HP tractor is a mighty small machine to support a backhoe.
At a minimum, it would seem that a significant flow PTO pump would be necessary.

Thanks!
The B7100 was pretty decent when I bought it, but the hoe needed a lot of work.
Here is a compendium of the work usually required on these, as a few of us discuss & compare notes on the rebuilds.
It is a long thread, but tons of good info & pics on this hoe & what they usually need:

Think you can you make the Hanix look that pretty?
Unless I win the lottery so I can buy a high capacity hot water pressure washer, I doubt it.
The parts that I have to clean up to do machine work on will probably get repainted, but it is just too grubby to mess with. If I have to clean the whole machine the way I have been cleaning small parts & assemblies, it will cost me another $10K in solvents, brushes, soaps, scrapers, gloves, paint, and such, plus another year in labor.

I know it's a long shot but looking for a backhoe for a b7100. I'm in Northeast Alabama. Will travel a little or can maybe work out shipping. Thank you
We have a B8200 with factory backhoe. I believe Kubota had Woods make (4520) it for them? The Kubota has a two speed PTO. I have used the backhoe for removing tree stumps, water and electric lines to my barn. It strong enough for most jobs around the farm etc.
