What are these for?

What are these rings for that are welded inside the loader arms?

When you take your loader off and you have this big honking pin in your hand thinking where do I put this thing????

Well some guy with a slide rule in his pocket or a can of snuff at the Kubota think tank trying to come up with an inovative idea that someone else does not have thought hey wouldn't it be cool to have a place to put the loader pin that is easy to access and would keep it out of the dirt while you put the loader back on the tractor

Wow, thats cool. I would've never figured that out. I have never had the loader off and probably never will...but if I do, I know where to store the pins!

Thanks wushaw

Wish the BX had that. I take my loader off all the time during mowing season. Sometimes a couple/few times a week.

I put a broom in it so when Im snowblowing and need to sweep something off I have a broom. V

Yup, handy for hanging my big channel locks in too.

The BX 24 does have them for both the loader and backhoe.

On the 402 loader, you have a little tube about the diameter of a drinking straw. You don't put the pin in it, you put the HANDLE of the pin in it! Tricky, those Kubota guys!

Coming from a blue machine, I wondered about the same thing until I saw it mentioned somewhere else here. I guess some good ideas are so simple & obvious that I completely overlook them.
