l2501 lift capacity

No it’s not going to do it.

These are old school blocks that are heavier but my tractor with the same loader as yours wouldn’t lift this pallet any higher. I had to hand unload more to get them loaded.

I have the block being delivered the 3rd, I have an extra pallet already waiting. It will be interesting to see what it can lift and Ill report that back here

Don't forget the weight of the attachment with the pallet forks. That is several hundred more pounds to include in your lift - not enough tractor.

I'm just guessing, but I don't think anyone here will be impressed to hear the maximum number of bricks you could lift before something bad started to happen.

I use the forks on my fel every day but if I need to lift something heavy I use forks on the 3pt. Can't lift very high but it will lift 3 times as much as the front.

I'm thinking of getting or making this set up.
I wonder if my B6100 3pt would lift the pallet. Prob. not

Thanks

A pallet of cinder blocks is a lot to ask of a Kubota.We have a M 108 s 4x4 and not sure it would.

As other have stated, it won't do it. I tried lifting half pallets of wood pellets and mine won't. Even if you could turn up the hydraulic pressure (which I would not), its not going to help. My tractor will lift the loaded rears and an implement if I'm not careful. And that's without ever touching the relief. More power won't help much and could break hard parts.

Everyone gave good advice. The L2501 FEL lifting capacity is not impressive. Kubota makes a good, solid tractor, but without dual hydraulics, you're going to be limited with front lift. I have same pallet forks, which are capable of lifting FAR more than your tractor specs. I sold my Kubota L2800 because of FEL limitation, but otherwise was a great tractor. My TYM 474, with dual hydraulics, has over double the FEL lift capacity, and I can lift weights that the Kubota couldn't budge. Safety first. Plan on manual work to unload many of the blocks before starting tractor. Be careful, good luck.
