400cx loader removal

   / 400cx loader removal #11  
The dealer/salesman walked me through it (removal) at the dealership before I took delivery. I must admit I hate the set-up. Too close to the glass! IMO it's not a good design, 300cx 400x or 400cx.

Not looking forward to removing mine.

Well, those loaders are mounted on a tractor with a pretty short wheelbase...not going to be much room.
The short wheelbase adds to the maneuverability of the tractor.

Reckon that's one of the trade offs for the comforts of a cab.

Every other brand I looked at (Kubota, Massy, Case, NH) had a pocket or a fixed stop that the loader fed into. In other words, a zero chance of any contact with the cab glass. Seems like Deere could come up with a better Idiot proof design. :cool:

I agree the removal could get a little sketchy....the masts sometimes "pop" off the mounts as the front of the loader frame hits the ground and the masts then raise up. I think i'll always have the tractor wanting to inch in reverse a little as this process takes place.

I wouldn't worry about putting it on unless you get a little too happy with the hydro pedal.

Are you telling us that , Massy, Case, and NH buyers are idiots?
That infers the Deere buyers are smarter (well, less idiotic anyway) then Kubota, Massy, Case, and NH owners...

I knew that...

Why where did Nuru go?

Good question...he hasn't been on TBN since 03 Jan.
He never was a daily or even weekly poster though...unlike the rest of you TBN junkies.
