I have a 300cc Polaris utility style 4X4. It has plenty of power (it comes with low and high range forward gears). This thing has more than enough power to spin all 4 wheels while pulling a load.

I have siezed it on a couple of occasions during summer use on very hot days while pulling a 4' roller while rolling my runway for hours at a time. Being an aircooled two stroke (even with its puny little thermostat controlled fan), it does not like working hard at 5 mph on a hot day with little air moving past it's cooling fans.

If the 700 is a four stroke and is liquid cooled, you should not have any problems working it hard, but I recommend avoiding the two stroke aircooled models for "heavy" hot weather work. IOW, pulling power is acceptable with nearly all 4X4 ATV's, but cooling issues on hot days at low speeds needs to be considered.

My Polaris 300 4x4 drivetrain has held up perfectly after lot's of abuse for 8-9 years, but now I use a tractor to pull my heavy roller on hot days.
The ATV is the best thing I have found for plowing snow quickly. I have a Ford 9n w/ rear blade, a skid loader and a standard garden tractor w/ front plow.... The Polaris works better at clearing snow than any of them!
