One of the worlds great mysteries; how to use the support braces for a Brandon-Lehr loader. The loader came with the tractor. The previous owner had not removed the loader but had the braces and one of the pinned flanges that goes with the braces. I have made a replacement pinned flange and tried to remove the loader using on line how-to info. Wound up using a boom pole on a second tractor to hoist the thing up high enough to allow backing out tractor number one.
Something in the use of the braces is escaping me. As the bucket is rolled to raise the loader, the brackets continue to splay increasing the angle relevant to the loader lift frame. What makes them form a solid inverted "V" and support the loader?
As it happened, once the loader was raised the front of the loader frame that sits on an "L" shaped bracket on the tractors (DB885) front fell to the ground and the loader rear (where the mounting clamp is located) ended up on the steering arm and front tire. That is when re-enforcements were called in.
