Hi all,
My 5520H is rated at 2700lbs lift capacity I believe.
The other day I hooked up my set of pallet forks (350lb weight) then slide them under a pallet of 45 cinderblocks (35lbs each * 45 = 1575lbs) for a total weight of 1925lbs.
The tractor hydraulics were about maxed out at that weight, and were struggling to roll the pallet back towards the tractor.
Has anyone else tested their lift capacity and seen similar results?
Thanks,
