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
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.
