I guess that machine will be similar to a mid 80s 3 CX. Do you have a sliding or fixed kink post (pivot) on the back hoe? Can't really help with question but would guess somewhere between 7.5 and 8 tonnes.

You might be able to make it out from this 1985 3CX Brochure that I grabbed the image from an ad on ebay!

The base 2wd non turbo 3CX appears to be 6275kg, then there are additional weights given for the various optional extras like different width buckets, extra dig, 4wd etc. As far as I can tell the 6 in 1 bucket is the what we all call the 4 in 1 plus loading forks, but could be wrong
