It covers the tilt steering, armrest ergonomics, loader breakout force and quick-attach system, dual hydraulic pumps, tire/counterweight advice, and backhoe options like the hydraulic thumb. Best for buyers wanting comfort and feature explanations before a test drive, not footage of the machine working.
Posted by a salesperson at the Lanark Equipment dealership, so expect a sales-oriented perspective favoring Kubota.
The loader has a breakout force of more than 1,300 pounds, which is high for a 26 horsepower commercial model compared to similar machines.
One pump runs the loader, backhoe arm, and transmission, while the other handles power steering, allowing robust lifting and even a hydraulic thumb on a small tractor.
Using the quick-attach skid steer system, you pull two levers, remove the bucket, install another attachment, and lock it in about 30 seconds.
Removing the backhoe arm and its counterweight makes the back end light for the loader's capacity, so filled tires or added counterweight keep tires grounded for safety.
