Read articles →This is a narrow, mechanical how-to focused entirely on attaching and detaching the LA243 loader on a Kubota BX2360, including a close-up on stand storage. It walks through hose couplers, mounting pins, hydraulic lever positions, and the stand-rotation steps for both installation and removal, plus a quick tire-pressure reminder. It's not a review or test-drive; it's a step-by-step procedural reference for owners who already have the loader and need to hook it up or take it off.
Posted by the Practical Diy For the Capable Homeowner channel, an owner walking through his own tractor's loader attachment procedure.
Drive the tractor between the loader side frames, connect the four hoses with couplers, move the hydraulic lever to dump to engage the frames, reinstall mounting pins, then rotate and store the stand.
Raise the boom, rotate the stand into place, dump the bucket about twenty degrees, lift the front wheels, remove the mounting pins, raise the loader out using the rollback position, then disconnect the hoses.
Make sure you have the proper air pressure in your tires, since a flat or low tire can go unnoticed before use.
Pull the spring pin, slide the stand off its boom pin, rotate it, line up the hole with the other pin, slide it on, and reinsert the spring pin.
