BL10 or BL10A How can I tell?

[tman53]

How can I tell the difference between a BL10 and a BL10A FEL? I am trying to price a set of forks for my 3510 and the dealer wants to know which I have.

I replyed to thier email asking the same question but thought I would ask the group at the same time.

Other things to try might be to call Branson @ 1-877-734-2022 and asked them when they changed overor what those differences might be. Or Call the dealership where it came from. Also your paperwork should specify the model number.

Measure the distance between your hooks on the bucket. The BL10A is about 6" wider. On the BL10A the bucket hooks (mounts) line up with the loader arms. On the BL10, they were inboard a few inches on each side.

I just bought a new FEL for mine and it is a BL-10A. The dealer told me the other model was a BL-10S . The difference was the S was designed to accept Skidsteer attachments and it cost an extra $300. It had two pins to pull to release. The A only has one lever to move two pins.

You are correct on current models, the BL-10 is an older model.
