JD 5205
Does anyone know the 'working' lift capacity (up to about 36") of a JD 5205 with a 522 FEL? Per my manual the lift capacity at max heigth is 2094#. I'm considering adding a brush grapple and want to know how much lift capacity I'm going to have after I install the grapple. Thank you.

Would it be 2094 minus the weight of the grapple?

Actually I think it would be like 2094 + bucket weight (when removed) - grapple weight.

I am not familure with the JD FEL's but unless I miss my guess they have a bucket attached??? Don't you need to remove it to add the grapple?
