How does the bucket attach?

Royse · May 25, 2016

Ad says no bucket available. Several patches on the frame too.
I'll pass, just curious if the bucket actually attached as-is.

Craigslist

Davis brand loader, spool valve and oil holding tank is located on the left side, cylinders
are simple to rebuild, I have one on a Massey 35 , decent loader.

sorry, didn't answer your question . Two pins about an inch in diameter and about same
diameter for the single bucket cylinder.

"Two pins about an inch in diameter"

Thanks, that's how my old Kelly loader bucket mounts too.
But I can't see where they go in that picture.
That's the part that had me curious.

Looks to me like the bottom of the hole is broken out. That's the trouble with those that push with the bucket cylinder instead of pulling. When you push the cylinder out to curl the bucket back,it pushes out on the pin holes instead of pulling back against them. My Dunham model 22 was like that. The pin holes wore out on that one. I went to two cylinders that pull back on it and made a quick attach for it.

I thought that might be the case but I can't see the pic well
enough to tell for sure. The paint looked like lipstick though.

those frame horns are cast and it may be that they are just below grade and the holes are visible .

I keep seeing that on CL. I personally will never buy a Massey Ferguson with a loader again.

Like el6147 said, I think there'll be some 2 pins that hold it on. looks like that frame has about had all it can take though.

Looks broke to me. There aren't any other pictures with the ad either.

Still not a bad price if the tractor runs and functions well. I'd
take the loader off.

I would ask the guy if he would remove the aluminum paint on the wheels and tires for that money.
