Read articles →This video is primarily a firewood business operations update, with one focused segment where the owner deliberately tests whether the L4060 with LA805 loader can lift a heavy 48"x48" wooden tote loaded with over a face cord of unseasoned hardwood to pickup-truck-bed height (~4 feet). He measures the actual lift height, calls out the 1,700-lb rated capacity, and notes his counterweights. Useful for anyone specifically wondering about real-world tote-lifting capability.

Yes, the video shows it lifting a loaded 48x48 wooden tote to about four feet, well above typical tailgate height, with no problem.
Kubota rates it at 1,700 pounds at the lift pins at full height, but the demonstrated tote load was estimated at 1,700 to 1,800 pounds, exceeding that rating.
The rear tires are loaded with liquid or weight, and a 72-inch box blade weighing about 500 pounds is mounted on the back for counterweight.
