Kub LA352FEL on 7510?

[whenley]

Kub specs the LA302 FEL for the B7510. The LA352FEL offers about 150lbs more capacity but is only spec'ed for the B7610. The 7510 is near identical to 7610 except engine. Pump capacity is the same for both 7510/7610.
Does anybody know why the LA352 is not 'allowed' on the 7510?

I'm thinking it's allowed just not recommended. I bet HP and weight (both lifting and physical) are the factors.

Check the metal thickness on the bucket and the size of the lift arms. Maybe they're thicker (heavier), which will put more than the expected 150 pound load on the tractor. May be a little much. Kubota knows best.

I'm not up on all of the new number designations...but I think the 7510 and the 7610 are different frame size tractors.

I believe the B7510 is a B7500 size tractor, and that the B7610 is a B2410 size tractor. Larger tractor, larger capacity loader is generally the rule.

Guess I better go pick up some current sales literature at my dealer's... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
