Hi Phil,
The lift capacity at the lower link ends for the 2WD MF 590 as given in the 1980 MF Pocket Catalogue is 2227 kg or in old money 4900 lbs. If the tractor has a loader fitted, you'll have all the front weight you need as long as you keep a bucket or fork fitted and keep it about three feet off the ground. You can always put something in the bucket if you need to.
Cheers
DavidP
