3-Point Hitch B3030 3 pt not lifting as much as hoped...........

[teeravis1]

What hole is the toplink in on the tractor side?

And how does the pallet lift? Does it lift level? or does it tilt forward a little?

When at ground level it is level but as it lifts the fork ends (away from tractor) begin to be higher so load is angled back at/ tipping toward the tractor

If you set up the 3PH so that it "tilts" the least about or remains level, will give you the most lift capacity.

As I said, Top hole for the TL on the tractor, and lengthen it as much as you can.

Group,
I have a B3030 and am looking at a 800 lb cultipacker....it appears the B3030 will be able to lift it withouta problem..correct?

My rear-mounted snow blower weights approximately 400lbs and my B3030 hardly breaks a sweat picking it up.

thanks, I have a 58 inch rear tiller and I think its weight is a little over 400. I just want to make sure I can lift 800 before I make a purchase.

My BX would lift that much. You should not have a problem.

The 3 pt. lift capacity of the B3030HSD shows to be 2139 lbs.at the lift point and 1676 lbs. 24" behind the lift point. You will be fine with 800 lbs.
