Default FEL lift capacity on a Kubota L3750

I just bought the tractor. Going to build a set of forks just big enough to load logs on the trailer. Need to know how heavy a log I can lift? In the process of making a implement for the 3 pt to skid logs with too.
It has the BF900 FEL if that helps.

Thanks, Rich

I'll add this. A 18" x 10' White oak log would be about 1,100 lbs. Would I be able to lift this? Ballast on the back of course.

Can't say for sure but I would think your loader would lift 1100 lb.. Your L3750 is larger and has more HP and rear 3 pt. lift than my 26HP Mahindra. I have lifted 1100 lb. with my loader using 800 lb of rear ballast. I've also lifted logs but weight was unknown. If the tractor can't lift it the relief valve will not let you.

RAF,

Kubota loader model numbers are the capacity in kilograms - to get pounds , nultiply by 2.2 - the BF900 is 1980 lbs.

The newer loaders like LA1153 have a generation number as their last digit - it will lift 1150 kg or 2530 lbs.
