Price Check 2014 vs 2015 MX5200

Maybe I missed something but the topic has moved to comparing the L4701 to the MX loader (rather than last generation mx to current mx). But that is an interesting point.

That 1691lbs number for the LA1065 is for 500mm forward of the lift pin at max height where the loader is the weakest. Lift capacity at 1500mm and 500mm in front of pins is 2319lbs so make sure you are comparing apples to apples.
Here are the tables/graphs from my LA1065 manual.

L39 speecs for comparision. I suggest larger L1065 loader. Get the 2014 if it has larger loader.

I am thinking a bolt on cutting edge.If so,I wouldn't think the aftermarket would be much cheaper as the piece would probably have to be made to order.

Weleded on repalceable Esco teeth on my old cutting edge. I have a new smooth cutting edged also, but use my little tractor for times where I do not want teeth.

Took delivery of new mx5200. Received owners manual for tractor but am wondering if I should have also received a manual for the front end loader. There is no information for the loader in the tractor manual.

I took delivery of a MX5200 with LA1065 loader today. Dealer gave me a separate operators manual for each. Also for the bale spear and finish mower.

Does your loader have a bucket level indicator? I was spoiled to one and wondering if it was available.

Congrats in the new toy/tool!

The dealor threw in the bucket level indicator when I got mine (they are like $70). It is a flimsy POS. First thing I did was take it off as I knew I would immediately rip it off in brush.

Teir 4 iand cost was the main reason I bought a leftover 2013 Mahindra Max28. Mahindra Teir 4 are less pain than Kubuta with the regen.

I think my son paid $65 for the bucket level indicator on the LA1065 loader. I didn't think that was too bad considering the kit came with 2 replacement pins for the loader. No one has torn it off yet. Here's some decent views.

Thanks. I'm going to call dealer and see about that. I do a lot of manure work. So knowing that the bucket is level and I'm not digging dirt is important to me.

That is a ridiculously good deal as the pins purchased alone cost more than the kit. Could you measure the Pin Diameters? I may buy just for the pins
