The creator rates it 9.5/10, confirming the engine, backhoe, and mower deck held up with zero mechanical issues, while pinpointing real weak points: limited loader lift capacity (around 570 lbs) that struggled with pallet forks, an exposed transmission fan, and an oil change requiring bumper and panel removal. Best for buyers weighing long-term durability and loader limitations.
Posted by an owner-operator (RDX756) sharing hands-on impressions from years of actual use before trading the tractor in.
The LA2440 loader is rated around 570 pounds. It lifts bucket loads like dirt and gravel fine, but struggled when the owner set up pallet forks for heavier lifting tasks.
No mechanical issues after four years. The engine, backhoe, and mower deck all performed well, with the backhoe digging trenches, foundation work, and removing stumps.
It is not as easy as expected. You must remove the bumper guard or bumper, then the side panels, to access the oil filter and other components.
Limited loader lift capacity around 570 lbs, an exposed transmission plastic fan prone to debris, and an oil change that requires removing the bumper and panels.
