Loader for my H

[tessiers]

I just bought a trip loader for my Farmall H. It is a DOMOR model A according to the tag on the left loader arm. It is a kind of funny arangement, with 2 brackets attaching to the rearend and 2 attaching to the frontend, but nothing sticking up above the hood. I basicly paid scrap price for it so I am not out much but I wondered if it is worth installing. All the brackets are complete, the only thing I need to buy is a couple of hydraulic hoses. I was thinking of using it around a little, cleaning stalls, ect. now I use a wheel barrow but if I had the bucket I would load it by hand and dump into the manure pit. Also might use it to haul a couple armloads of firewood up to the house from the woodshed, no real heavy loads maybe a couple hundred pounds.

Anyone familiar with these loaders?
Are they reliable?
Seams like a low center of gravity may be good on the H.

Not really familiar with that unit...most of the Farmall loaders were called "Farm Hand" loaders...what's the deal with the hydraulics on your H? I'm guessing Belly Pump unless you have a Super H Phase 2....(only in 1954)...belly pumps put out only about 800psi so it may end up being somewhat slow...by the way, without power steering that H will be pretty hard to turn with a load in the bucket...BobG in VA
