Sub-Compact
24.5 hp engine · 18.5 PTO−24% to the shaft

The 24.5 hp engine and 6.9 gpm pump of the 1GC.25, with the folding ROPS and factory 76-inch backhoe of the B build. The extra 0.9 gpm over the 1GC.23B is the reason to pay for this one, because that flow is what the backhoe actually spends.

On the price: Neither this maker nor any dealer reachable from here publishes a bare-tractor price for this model — every listing found either says “call for price” or bundles a loader. That is how this brand sells, so expect to get a number by asking a dealer rather than by looking it up.

Lift figures are the maker's and are quoted at whichever point the maker chose; the about page explains why two loaders with the same number do not lift the same pallet.

What owners say

What they like

  • 6.9 gpm against the 1GC.23B's 6, which is a 15 percent faster backhoe on a machine where hydraulic flow is the binding constraint
  • Factory-fitted 76 inch backhoe rather than a dealer subframe, so the mounting and the hydraulic tap are engineered and warranted together
  • Folding ROPS at 85.5 inches up, which a fixed-ROPS 1GC.25 cannot match for barn and tree clearance
  • 18.5 hp at the rear PTO plus a 2,000 rpm mid PTO, so it still mows properly between digging jobs
  • Shares the FL.1805 loader and the whole 1GC parts list with the three cheaper models in the range

What they complain about

  • Nothing publishes a bare-tractor price - AGCO's own price book has only one 1GC.25B row, $25,556, and it includes the FL.1805 loader and BH2720 backhoe fitted and assembled, while the dealer figures found ($25,162 and comparable) are the same bundle
  • Loader lift stays at 662 lb and the hitch at 661 lb, so the most expensive 1GC carries no more than the cheapest
  • Massey publishes no weight for any 1GC, which on a backhoe machine also leaves transport weight unknown
  • The 76 inch dig depth trails the Kubota BX23S, its closest cross-shop
  • No cab anywhere in the range
  • 6.6 gal of fuel is a short working day once a backhoe is doing the work

Iseki-built and noticeably more finished than most sub-compacts, with a drive-over deck and the tightest turning circle in the GC range. Massey has moved the badge to the 1GC line for 2026, so this one now survives only on the sub-compact comparison table.

Massey's 2025 renumbering retired the GC1700 line, and this is what took the GC1725M's place: the same 24.5 hp Iseki three-cylinder and two-range hydrostatic, now with push-button cruise control and a redesigned seat. The 1GC.25B adds a folding ROPS and a factory backhoe on the same frame.

Entry point to the 1GC range that replaced the GC1700 line in 2025, and the cheaper half of a two-model choice: 2 hp and 0.9 gpm less than the 1GC.25 beside it, for the same 661 lb hitch and 662 lb loader. Fixed ROPS here; the 1GC.23B folds it and adds a factory backhoe.
