240TL loader question

[drag_slick]

Hi, first post in the blue forum. I've recently traded off my Kubota BX1850 for a new T2220 with a 240TL loader, was a demo unit so I'm the first owner. Also traded my Buhler 50" blower for a 60" Meteor. Only had the tractor for about 3 weeks and already put 35 hours on it keeping myself dug out of the snow. Boy what a night and day difference between the little Kubota and the bigger Boomer!

Anyway, just a question on the loader. I noticed the other day that when the bucket is curled all the way up, it looks like it hits the lower hydraulic fitting on the bucket curl cylinders. Is that a normal thing?

If it makes a difference, the tractor has super steer (awesome feature), and the loader does have the skid steer quick attach bucket.

Thanks!
Jamie

If it's hitting that fitting, it sure shouldnt be. Either the bucket or linkage is damaged or the wrong fitting is installed. Isd call the dealer. It's probably still under warranty.

I did call the dealer, they agreed that it shouldn't be happening. They're coming out to check it.

In case this happens to anybody else. Dealer came out, took some pics and opened an assistance request with NH. Turns out there's a couple different quick attach plates and mine has the wrong one. There ordering a new one up. :thumbsup:
