I am looking for some feedback on the DK40 loader. I am thinking of replacing my current tractor with one because I need the increased capacity. I know the spec is 2761 at pin, but as I have found out the numbers do not always apply in the real world once you start factoring in what type of load and how far out from the pins it is.
What I want to know is, can any current owners of a KL401 loader confirm or deny if the tractor can pick up a 2000 lb skid? Equipped with QA forks and properly balanced of course. I know it *should*, I am just looking for anybody that has actually done it.

Hope you get what you're looking for in your new tractor: DK-40?! HINT HINT!!![]()
