Moving stone!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I wish the loader had more roll-back though. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Nice setup!, Stone? How about boulder.

 

[WhiteRock]

Nice Grapple.

Nice tractor also. I was looking at your FEL design. It looks like to me that the upper bar design (attached to a bell crank on the curl cylinders) would/could keep your bucket level as you raise the bucket. Is this the case?

can you guys tell me what brand name tires are on the kioti

 

[Morgan1952]

That's what we like to see, Mud on the tires and doing it's job. Great pic.

Look at the front tires in the picture. Thats a heavy stone. I don't think I would try lifting that one with my 3054.

That's very impressive. What a nice grapple.
Don't forget to run your front tires at the maximum rated PSI when doing this. Otherwise, you can pop the tire off the rim and also may cause damage to the front end.

Once again Kioti John is right! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif I started out not knowing how large the rock was. 80% was buried. Once I got it out and saw how large it was I ran in and got the camera. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I only moved it a very short distance and low to the ground.
The tires are somewhat sunk into mud, up here everything is starting to thaw and turn into mushy mud!!!
My smaller Kubota would always have the front tires come off the rims with any kind of load. so I put in tubes.
Keep the tips coming!!! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It appears you've acquired a pure-bred 'rockhound'. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I love to see grapples and tractors working together.

How do you like your self leveling loader? Does the self leveling feature affect your roll-back (curl) on the bucket?
