Read articles →This episode is a real-world lift test: the owner loads green red oak into an IBC tote with pallet forks and tries to pick it up with the RK24, referencing the 940-lb rated capacity and comparing against other owners who've weighed similar loads at 1,200-1,500 lbs. Half a tote gets lifted without struggle; a full-tote attempt is deferred. Short on hard data but useful for anyone curious how the RK24 loader handles dense, real-world loads.
An owner-operator sharing casual hands-on impressions from their own property, with no apparent commercial affiliation.
The owner states it is about 940 pounds, measured down at the loader arm pivot point rather than at the bucket or forks.
It lifts a half-full IBC tote of green red oak without struggling, though a full-tote attempt was not completed in this video.
The owner uses 36-inch pallet forks, which he says are the size recommended for this tractor.
