KUBOTA WEIGHTS FOR LOADER WORK

[GILLYS CHILLI FARM AUSTRA]

Does anyone know what weights or equicpment other than a BH is suitable for when using on the rear of a MX5100 loader full of heavy wet clay?

I have a L5740 which is pretty much the same size tractor with loaded rear tires (~1000 lb) and a Landpride BB2572 (~600 lb). It has worked well for me moving stone, soil, and firewood.

This ballast box comes in at 1250# when filled with concrete. I like it because of how compact/small it is, plus it is removable. Philip.
