He builds, fits, and tests them on the tractor. Useful for current CK3510/loader owners wanting a cheap DIY safety fix, not shoppers researching the tractor itself.
Posted by the Backyard Country Livin' channel, an owner-operator sharing hands-on DIY projects and safety tips from personal use of his own tractor.
The joystick lock only keeps someone from bumping the joystick accidentally; it does not prevent the loader from dropping if a hose breaks or a fitting comes loose.
A PVC tube is mounted on the loader frame using two-inch plumber's plugs, one epoxied in place, with a flat washer added so the rubber plug expands enough to grip the tube.
They are made from scrap U-channel and angle iron, cut to about 16 inches, painted, and placed on both sides to block the loader arms from dropping.
