LOADER CAPACITIES

[flINTLOCK]

I currently run a NH TC40DA for deer camp foodplots. I could use a bit more loader capacity to grapple larger boulders and logs. Does Kioti provide greater LC in a comparable hydrostatic machine??

Here's the kioti web site, it should answer your question.

KIOTI - run ahead of the pack!

If you only want a BIT more lift, have your FEL hydraulic PSI checked and get it adjusted to the MAX manufacturer's tolerance. I did this and it helped significantly in increasing my lift capacity.

Kioti's DK40SE tractor is equipped with a KL401 loader and the lifting capacity to full height @ piviot pins is 2,716.

I traded in a New Holland TC40 with a La16 loader because the customer wanted more lift also.
He said there is a night and day difference between the 2 tractors and loaders.

Thanks for the comeback. I will consider your suggestion. I may stop by Wallace's this Saturday if my other plans remain the same.

Be careful just 'stopping by' Team Wallace, don't be surprised if you drive away owning a different tractor.

Or, a new implement....this is what happened the last time I "stopped by". Actually I used this FEL 3PT mount today while cleaning up after felling some big trees and after planting some new apple trees. It came in very handy. A rake mounted on the FEL is much more precise and easier to control. I wouldn't rake a field like this but for landscaping and clean up it is great. Unlike a bucket, you can see right through it and also adjust the tilt to modify how aggressive a bite you want on the fly. Very handy.

So, the moral of the story is that you just never know what you will take home with you after a visit to Rick Wallace. But, bring a large vehicle...IXLR8 had to pass on this device as his car was already full.

Seems that New Holland loader would be a 260TL and rate
Lift capacity @ max. height @ pins, lbs. 1955

Provided I'm reading it right.

Does your FEL 3PT attach directly with the standard pins for a bucket or do you have a quick attach adapter? Who manufactures the FEL 3PT. It looks very usefull.

Quick attach. It is useful and so far I use it primarily with the rake. The other potential use would be a quick snow plow by using it with a rear pivoting blade. I cannot see using it with a box blade, plow, or many other ground engaging 3pt attachments. It also has class 2 and 3 receiver hitches built in so that comes in handy for moving trailers etc. A removable boom pole could easily be attached via the class 3 hitch. I'm thinking the class 2 hitch could hold an fishing pole too.

This sounds like a great idea if you are fishing for Tuna or Great White sharks. You'd probably want loaded tires (at least) if you went for anything larger.
