Can’t seem to find the overall weight of my bx23s, I have the tractor weight 1570lbs, the backhoe weight 607lbs, but can’t find the loader attachment weight? I have the la340s loader with quick attachment feature. Any insight on this would be grateful.
Looking at getting a trailer to haul the unit around.

Basing my answer on the BX25D....somewhat the same as your BX23S.

I think the FEL will add another 350 ish, if you have a MMM then another 260 ish and IF you have tires filled - 100 lbs each. Even a full tank will come in at another 50 lbs.

Typically a BX2x will weigh in under but close to 3000 lbs if when fully loaded. I would highly recommend a double axle trailer, min 14' or better - a 16' works perfectly. Brakes on at least one axle, again better if both have brakes.

As 85Hokie said, I read somewhere that the FEL with the QA is right around 450 lbs or so. Add in the fluids, ballast, and what-not, and you are right around 3000 lbs.

Thankyou for all the insight fellas. I just got back from my local dealer and even they had a difficult time finding the actual numbers, but we did. If anyone wants the real numbers they are as follows:
Bx23s weight:

Tractor only with ROPS 1570lbs
Loader (no bucket) 480lbs
Loader Bucket 125lbs
Backhoe 610lbs
Total (dry) weight 2785lbs
