3054 Buhler loader and hydraulics questions

[Jim_in_Omaha]

I'm looking at buying the used (approx 30 hours) LK3054. It has the Buhler Allied 195 loader on it. And from what I can tell from the pictures it also has the axle support arms going to the rear. Not sure if that is standard with that loader or not, the web site for Buhler says its an option. It does have a joystick.

Does anyone have any comments on this loader compared to other loaders like the Koyker or Kioti's loaders?

Now for the tractors hydraulics: From the specs on the brochures they mention that there is an optional hydraulic valve available. I assume this can be purchased and installed easy enough if its not already on the tractor? They also talk about a diverter block, not sure what that is..


Thanks for any information. It's greatly appreciated.

Im not sure on the loader as i've never seen or used one with that allied loader. We use the Kioti and Rhino Loaders on our 30's here. But for the the hydraulics you can purchase a kit that can be installed to your tractor for rear remotes. Not to hard to install. Let me know if you have any more questions about the hyd vavle.

What does the hyd valve add: Does it add like a 2 connections for powering a double acting cylinder? Or is there a pressure and a return?

What does the option cost for the parts?

Please excuse my hydraulic ignorance

The hyd valve adds 1 set of rear remotes. Its basically for something that requires the use of a clyinder. I sent you a PM with the cost of parts.

The axle support bars are use when the engineers feel the structure of the tractor needs the extra support, so when they say optional, it's predicated on what make, model ETC. The diverter block is used to divert hydraulic oil to the joy stick. The option would be to have 2 dual remote valves and operate the loader with the remote valve levers. The diverter/joy stick is a better set-up and seems to be preferred

The hyd diverter block for the loader comes standard on all Kioti tractors, and allows you to easily plumb in a loader. The optional rear remote / hyd valve is for a cylinder on say a box blade or some sort of implement, and is controlled with a lever next to the 3 pt control. The kit plumbs in under the seat and had a little hyd block with to lines that run to the rear.
