580k lift capacity

[rdwyer]

Hi folks.
Why do I get search results for a 580’s lift capacity ranging from 2000lbs up to the absurd amount in this result:
“Its powerful hydraulic system also allows it to lift up to 9,185 pounds.”

Via backhoe or bucket, what lift capacity does a 580 have?…it can’t be so wildly different amongst the different model years…or can it?

When the 580K is equipped with the 1.0-cubic-yard (.76 m) long-lip bucket, the loader lift capacity to full height has increased from 5155 pounds (2338 kg) to 5500 pounds (2495 kg), a 7-percent
improvement over the 580 Super E.

Bucket breakout force has been increased 7 percent, from 6800 pounds to 7300 pounds when equipped with the 1.0-cubic-yard (.76 m) long-lip bucket. With the same sized short-lip bucket, the increase is from 7600 pounds to 8100 pounds

So any year 580 can lift more than 4500 lbs?

No I think a 580 started out at 3800.

I wouldn’t count on it. I had a 310 Deere that is quite a bit bigger than the old style 580s. It would lift double 3600 pound retaining wall blocks in a stationary lift but actually driving around especially with the load on the downhill side was about the limit with one block.
