The Old Loader paid for itself today! Tested it pretty good and was able to flip this 1,250 lb 8 ft X 12 ft 3/16" Plate and 2- 16 ft X 6" Channels for my Water Tank I am building for my new Tender. After flipping it I picked it up flat and put it back on the trailer and put the trailer back in the shop to finish welding the rest of the tank. Sure glad it could lift 9 ft or I could not flip it!!

Amazing what you can do with a loader. Our 135 lives with one on it. I see you've only got a blade at the back for counterbalance - hope your rear wheels are filled, or you run the risk of tipping over as the tractor swivels on the front axle pin.

The back tires are filled I want to make a heay counter ballance for it. I will have another 200 lbs of chains on this winter and the blade will be on the back all the time. I think I will add balast to the blade for more traction tho! I have some 200 lb round sections of steel that will work for it. The loader is heavey enough to make the back end light for traction when there is just a med amount of weight in the bucket! Mark H.

This loader has been a back saver for me around here. The little investment I had to put into building the extras on it and mounting it was cheap compaired to how much work it can do. Front Tires are important cause all that load goes on them! It is a impressive tractor for it size!! Mark H.

Yes i agree, very useful, even when theres not too much weight involved.

in the last few weeks, mine has been a recovery vehicle lifting the front of our ride on mower and dragging it back home (MTD - front axle fell to bits going a bit fast round a corner!)ITs moved tonnes of muck, moved trailers (lifting up the front with a chain and dragging it backwards - dont have a pick up hitch :)) and moved about 5 3 point implements from one barn to the other - saved hooking them up just jump off and chuck the chain links on!

i actually cant see an advantage of it not being on there. You have to get used to the fact you might have to turn a bit earlier sometimes. Thats it! love it!

Willy, Thats a great picture, nice job. Ive got a MF-50 with a loader and it does more work than I ever imagined it could. Last job was digging a stone the size of a bathtub out of worked ground. Great machines. Work safe , Lou
