Cabela's and TYM Tractors

That's all the salt I had. Plus pallet weight.

Picked up a pallet of salt 2 months ago, 63 sacks @ 40lbs a piece = 2520 on a T503 HST Cab. You will need a good ballast box, I had a Mott 88 Flail Mower (about 1200lbs) hooked up and the *** end was still very light. I can't say how high it will pick up that kind of weight, all I needed to do was just remove it from the trailer and place it on the ground in the shed

Wow that's impressive, I'd really like to see videos/pics of that.

Sorry, wasn't even thinking of pictures, just get it close to ground as soon as possible before I tear up my new tractor, LOL

I won't be needing any salt for a while, just got tired of purchasing a few sacks every month for the water softener. Maybe next time

I'm just a bit incredulous about it... Seems like more weight that the tractor is spec'd for. Is your hydraulic relief turned up over stock?

All he had to do was just lift off a trailer, not to maximum height. Just using the curl could take enough weight off for the tractor to move it. I'm sure that a Kioti/ Massey/ LS 50 hp tractor could lift the load off the ground enough to move it, with proper ballast. TYM web site and loader specs are not the most accurate. Hopefully the new website will be more accurate. I see on there specs for a TX105 loader but the do not list a T105 tractor yet. It's a work in progress.

I have tested, and published here on this site, two different tractors rated to lift 2500 @ the pins. My LS R4047 (2500#), and my Massey 1648(2527#). Both with my pallet forks that weigh something like 350. Both with a standard pallet of evenly stacked bags of 40# salt. My LS could do 50 bags off the ground. My Massey could do 51. And that's off the ground, not off of a trailer. Unloading from a higher surface meant even less weight was capable.

That TYM loader is rated for a hair under 2500lbs. I have a hard time believing it could do a full pallet of 63 bags. Either that, or both my LS and Massey loaders were malfunctioning ... But that amount of weight seemed fair and generally accepted considering it was on a pallet & forks.

My Ford 1920 loader is rated for 800 lbs. I have lifted round bales weighing over 1,000 lbs 4 plus feet in the air with the bucket still on it

My loader is the 7108. The breakout force (curl) is usually a lot more than the lift, so it's not hard to just curl it back and lift enough of the load to remove from a flat surface

Bucket rollback force is not breakout force... It's bucket rollback force.

Rolling back a bail in a bucket is vastly different than weight evenly distributed on a pallet. With the physical characteristics of a bail in a bucket, you can practically put the weight directly over the bucket pins when you cup the bail, so you're not really extending the weight away like you are with forks.
