we've been using a 30hp Landini on a job lately with 3tonn winch and loader with grab and it's been punching well above it's weight. Did have the timber trrailer behind it for a bit but it was a bit heavy on the drawbar for it if loaded a bit much. Currently pulling the trailer with and old 2wd internationla which is fairly small but have an alod 40hp Kubota to pull it with when we finally get a day in the workshop to finish getting it ready for the woods.

 

I think a bigger compact can work well on the right job.

i would stay away from your standard compact if tou are getting a loader as the front axels are weak as they are made to have higher ground clerance but this means there are a lot of extra bits to go wrong, and then with the extra loading they do not stand up to it always,

but do still get a loader its only 1/4 of a tool with out one, it worth the extra money. i would neaver not have one i this line of work
