Anyone have suggestions for how to best mount these on the loader? PN for a plate or other idea? Which direction is best?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Pretty sure those are nonbinary connectors and your heteronormative assumptions are a microagression.I like to use male couplers on the tractor side and female couplers on the attachment side. I also point the male couplers upward towards the sky. I find it’s much easier to pull back on female side collar, then use my body weight to push it onto the male coupler mounted on the tractor’s loader crossmember.

That looks easy to connect/disconnect.WoW! Torvy - what are you trying to tell Hay Dude??? My grapple controls are installed right above the main member on the FEL. In the space between the tractor body and the FEL vertical arm. The hydraulic lines are attached to the FEL arm and run on the arm - out to the grapple. It's not an easy installation to show by picture. Here is my controls.

What stupid training class did someone make you attend?Pretty sure those are nonbinary connectors and your heteronormative assumptions are a microagression.
Yeah his picture is of the loader disconnects. I was just pointing out how crowded they are.Probably not the easiest - Hay Dude. I've NEVER disconnected at the control point shown in the pic. I always disconnect out at the grapple - outboard end of the FEL. There is a plate - mounted way out on the FEL. Hydraulic connect/disconnect fittings are mounted out there.
I have no pics of that location. Black as tar outside. But - here is a pic of the plate and fittings at the outboard end of the FEL. Luckily I didn't step in anything obnoxious on this early AM venture.
