Read articles →This is a dealer-narrated static walkaround of the LS MT226, not a hands-on demo, no loader work, digging, or driving footage. Rick from The Homesteader's Store covers the cockpit layout, side-by-side hydrostatic pedals, split brake, LL302 loader specs (1,599 lb lift capacity, 66-inch bucket, skid-steer attach plate), category one three-point, and warranty terms. Useful for buyers wanting ergonomic and spec details before a dealer visit, but skips real-world performance.
Posted by The Homesteader's Store, a dealership channel, so expect a sales-oriented walkaround emphasizing value and features rather than independent testing.
The LL302 loader has a lift capacity of 1,599 pounds, about an 8-foot lift height to the pivot pin, which the narrator says is stouter than other loaders in its class.
No, the 25 horsepower MT226 does not have the emissions control system that the 32 and 42 horsepower models in the MT2 series have.
It comes with a two-year bumper-to-bumper warranty and a six-year powertrain warranty.
It has a semi-flat platform, side-by-side hydrostatic pedals you pivot on your heel, a loader valve positioned off your right thigh, and an adjustable suspension seat.
