Lift capacity

Howdy, I was curious if anyone had a round about guess about the lift capacity of this loader. There are not any tags of brands on it. The tractor itself is a Frankenstein 2000 '67 transmission and rear half, 71 3000 engine, hood & some sheetmetal off a industrial tractor.... so who knows what the loader is from.

It looks like a Davis/Midwest Manufacturing loader.

NO idea of capacity, tho.
 
I was hoping to be able to occasionally move large bales with it, not all the time just once and a while. They are typically 1000-1200 lbs. I dont like maxing out the capacity on a regular basis, it just causes more maintenance issues. I dont need that with winter coming on.
 
That style of front axle will be the weak link. Have seen spindles as well as the axle fail on that type of tractor with loader, but the owner was moving a lot of round bales. They were in the 500 pound size 4x4 roll. That is a fairly stout looking loader.
