We sold just a few in mid 60's. Very fast capable
machine. weighs 10,700 lbs (gas)or 10,900(diesel)
Lift capacity-5000 to full height or 7000 w/addl
weights. Max clearance at max ht. 132 1/2 ".
Clearance with bucket dumped-107". Reach (out from unit) 50 1/4 with loader bucket on ground.
24" at full ht. I always say on an older machine,
it's how the machine has been maintained. Chuck

so, if you found a decent one, it would probably work for loading chicken litter and lime, looking for something simplier then a wheel loader with articulated joint and pins. 2 yard buket or what size was usually fitted.

Howdy Bloke,
I have got a Massey 356 Shovel Loader, and I think it is a real gem. The Perkins diesel motor starts well, given enough battery power to spin it over. It will lift close to two ton, enough to lift the steer off the ground, and the previous guy gave you reach/height measurements.

My only problem is that I put more oil in the hydraulic steering than diesel in the tank. Without this constant topping up, straight forward/backward is the only option, no matter how much grinding on the steering wheel.

My brakes are in need of some repair, so loading on a slope can be tricky. I don't use it a lot, so havn't bother to try to fix these minor issues. Gunna wunday!
