1231 loader specs?

[Agentiron]

Does anyone know where I can find the specs on the 1231 loader? The Kioti site gives the same specs as the 1230 which I believe is an error.

Thanks

Here's a scan from Kioti's implement & attachment guide

 

[gamble77]

Bucket Size: 60"
Max. Lift Height: 97"
Clearance with bucket dumped: 73.5"
Reach at max. height: 24.5"
Max. dump angle: 51 degrees
Rollback angle: 30 degrees
Digging depth below grade: 5.5"
Lift capacity to full height at pivot pins: 1,320lbs
Breakout force at pivot pins: 1,935lbs
Approx. weight w/bucket: 870lbs

Hope this helps, this is a stout little loader for a 30hp machine.

Thank you so much gentlemen, that is exactly what I was looking for! It indeed is a stout little loader!

Your welcome, if the thank you was meant for me also /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Well of course I ment you too Becky! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif I could not detect your feminenity from your previous posts, but will try to be more careful next time. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You telling me TillyB sounds like a guy ? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Agentiron]

Of course it does not sound like a guys name silly, but when I wrote thank you gentlemen you only signed it Batchelders. That makes it a bit tough to determine. Had I looked at your profile I would have seen your full name, and boy is that a mouthful. Did you marry so that you could have that name? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif I think it is pretty cool actually.

 

[Batche33]

Nah, I married cuz he's a great guy. Kept Batchelder cuz I'm proud of where I came from /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Changed the screen name because it doesn't warrant much credibility.

I do the posting because my dad is computer illiterate and would rather talk than learn how to use it /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'll chime in here since no one else has. You do you that you need to knock 30% off all the figures that are measured at the pivot pin. They are dead lift figures and not the amount of material that the tractor can actually handle.

Neil you are right my friend, but "pivot pin" force is and always has been the way these things are measured and shown on spec sheets (most manufacturers anyway). They could be missleading to customers that don't completely understand the forces applied and not applied to the loader under use. However whether these numbers are misleading or not they are a clear indication of what a loader can handle and when comparing one loader to another the one with higher "pivot pin" capacity will have more "actual" capacity.

I'm sure you have read the thread that bob surka and I went back and forth on. Sadly he left this site and I think I am the sole champion of bucket center measurements. I have a huge issue with with companies that neglect to even list it. Any reputable company is going to at least put it on their spec sheets, in my mind obmiting it is paramount to deception. Shady dealers don't help any, so many salesmen throw out the larger pivot rattings without ever explaining what they mean. End result is the dozens of people who end up on this site making false claims about how brand X outlifts brand Y by some huge margin, and there are also those who buy a loader for a particular job only to find out that it does not lift the figure that they where told. Its a completly irrelevent spec, I wish everyone would just go with bucket center and be done with it.

End rant.. i have not gone off about this for awhile /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Can you help me find the post you are refferencing? Do you know of how the bucket center measurements you are refferencing pertain to a comparison of Kubota loaders vs. Kioti? I am ignoranty to this type of measurement altogether. What happend to Skurka, I always enjoyed reading his past posts even if I did not agree with everything he said.

Thanks

Messick is mistaken, Skurka still posts on TBN. (As recently as 1/22)

It could be that the pivot pin is used because it is easy to calculate, only one cylinder is involved so some wiz bang engineer can figure how much force is available working at whatever fulcrum points, leverage, etc.. The distance to the center of the bucket works in an arch, you would have a different lift figure with the bucket flat or with it curled back or in the dump position. 30% may be a bit much or it might be right on the money. I have a couple tons of tractor weights and could do a test, but I expect the rated lift considers a reserve or margin of error so I may be able to lift more than the recommended amount.
