- Kubota M6040 L2250, JohnDeere 310D, Ford 841 Elenco, Ford 961, Trapmaster, PT180 w/LM bucket and 45" brush cutter, PT1430 Deutz w/grapple bucket, Antonio Carraro Tigrecar 6500. John Deere 5300. Former owned Steiner 430 max, Goldoni REV Maxter 7
I adapted a forklift attachment to the PT180 quick attach plate and went to try it out before a (someday) flat black paint job. It lifted a boulder that I couldn't roll into the bucket. The forks slid under without pushing the boulder away, and the ability to tilt it so far back made it so the weight was more manageable even know the rear was light. I could only make gradual turns or the rear tire(s) would lift.
I loaded the Kubota bucket. The Power trac didn't tear up the grass like the Kubota would have done and the wide bucket would have made a mess getting the boulder in it.
