Kubota M 1292 Quick Hitch for Front Loader Specs or Cad Drawings?

blueriver · Sep 7, 2016

I need to build an adapter from this M 1292 to SSQA

One side M1292 the other side SSQA ... wondering if anyone has the specs or better yet the cad drawings? The tractor is over 2 hrs away, I can ask the customer to bring it to me and go from there ... just thinking someone may have already done this.

Almost there

Looks like you got it! The one thing that I pay attention to with these conversions is that the SSQA and attachments, have a bunch of "roll back" built into them. That is the angle of the back (attaching face) in relation to level ground is usually more than a tractor or backhoe, I believe because most SS/CTL's loader arms are almost vertical compared to a tractor or BH. This built in angle allows for a decent bucket load (roll back) at lower carrying levels on a SS. It should not be a worry on that little Kub wheel loader and this is usually a problem going the other direction, that is mount in non SS bucket or attachment on a SS.
Nice work as usual Blue!

IMHO the Kubota bucket quick attach in your photos is a not SSQA. I had a Kubota loader with that QA system and literally hated it BUT I now own a Kubota loader with SSQA and like it.

Jim you are correct ... the photo side is not SSQA that's the kubota side on the other side (the part in the grapple) is the SSQA ... this conversion goes onto the Kubota and has the SSQA on the opposite side. When I finish it and take it out of the grapple to paint I'll post up a picture of just that unit.

The customer can mount this to his loader and have SSQA available for other SSQA equipment and can still drop it off to use the Kubota system
