Hydraulic MCS for 1026R?

Jtschnel · May 1, 2013

Just bought a 1026R, will be delivered this Friday. Going to get lots of goodies to go with it including deck, snow blower, tiller, loader, backhoe, and will pick up a cab before snow flies. What I'm really having a hard time with is the material collection system. My old X485 had a 3 bagger system. What I'd like for the new one is a material collection system with a hydraulic dump like the MCS 560, MCS 600, or something similar. Does anyone have any suggestions? Will these fit on the 1026R? Suggestions on alternatives?

I have a 580H that I bought/shipped from The Netherlands. It is setup for an x series with a 54" deck but that could be fixed to go on a 60" deck as well. I haven't used it, it's still in the crate. It's a hydraulic dump unit and I've thought about getting a 1025r or X748 to put it on but can't make up my mind. I moved from Nebraska to Idaho a year and a half ago and have a small yard now. I have a lot into it with shipping and all but I would be interested in selling it.

Potatoes,

Can you let me know what your'e asking? Looking at one of the electronic JD brochures, it indicatd the 580 will fit on the 1026R. Do you have any pics of it?

Thanks,

Jim

Might try to send him a pm, at least that might show up in his email as a tbn notice. His last activity was in May so not a frequent visitor here.

I tried to contact him when he originally posted the system for sale. Never did get a response. I ended up ordering a system from Potera for my 1026R. Had them add an electric dump so I can run it from the cab. It should be delivered next week. Their website doesnt seem to show it, but they have a new system for the 1026R. They did send me information. Having dealer mount it for me, will let you know how it works.

Sorry to all for not being on this site for so long. I still have the MCS 580, it's still in a crate. I would still entertain any offers on this as I don't have a tractor other than my old 425 AWS and it's not going on that...
