Tractor
New Holland Workmaster 40
I have a trailer that has 6,350 lbs. of maximum payload (10,000 GVW, but trailer itself is 3,650). I'm trying to make sure my new tractor will be transportable.

It's a New Holland Workmaster 25, which has a listed weight of 2,469 lbs.

I'm having the rear tires filled, so I'm estimating that there'll be 40 gallons in each tire (43x16-20 tires). So that's about 300ish lbs. per tire. We'll call it 600 lbs. total.

So now I'm up to 3,069 lbs. What I'm having a hard time finding is the weight of the 200LC loader with its included 66" bucket. I only have found one site online with a listing and it's showing 1,800 lbs. for the loader and bucket. This seems very high to me.

Does anybody here have a concrete number on what a NH 200LC loader and 66" bucket will weight??

Your owner's manual should have that number.

Does the loader weight include the mounting frame that bolts to the tractor? If yes suspect could be in 1800 lb range

Your FEL OP manual should list the weight of the bucket and FEL. The FEL plus bucket for my M6040 = ~ 2000#

I say around 1200 lbs..for a New Holland Workmaster 25

Those numbers sound heavy to me.

My 420 JD loader only weights around 700 lbs and the two mounts are less than a hundred.

These numbers are from my dealer for the XG3025 (same tractor, but NH has different loader) :

Tractor: 2822 lbs. (higher than listed on manufacturers site)(tires are NOT loaded)
Loader w/ bucket and mounts: 1220 lbs.

Total of 4042 lbs. this weight is confirmed by scales, not just listed numbers.

For those interested, the BH w/ 12" bucket and subframe weighs 1635 lbs.

Hope tis helps you out!

That's why I thought the 1,800 lb.+ figure seemed heavy. The John Deere brochures list all the loader and bucket weights, unlike the New Holland brochures. And on the Deere, it shows around 900 lbs. for both loader and bucket. So I figured there is no way the new Holland stuff is double the weight.

Thank you sir, that should get me very close since it's practically the same setup you have. Looks like my trailer will be just fine.

Either case, with available payload capacity of 6350 lbs, you should be fine hauling the Workmaster 25, even if the loader was 1800 lbs.
The NH loader is not that much different from the LS, so I don't think there is a 400 lb difference.
