M7030 with M540 Loader

[Riley12]

I just bought myself a M7030 with a M540 Loader. Just looking for some specs on the loader, breakout force, lift capacity etc.

Right now it has a big 6' bucket on it. I am starting my search for a bale spear and maybe a set of forks for the loader. I do not know what style of quick attach this loader is. Do all Kubota loaders have the same style quick attach on them? Are there other brands that are compatible?

The tractor is in amazing shape. 3500 hours, all it needs is new rear tires ( I suspect original). I'm not sure what year it is. I will post some pictures once I get her home.

Thanks
Riley

Post pics of the bucket mounts. Many Kubota utility tractors in Canada had an ALO Quicke loader painted orange and Kubota decals on it. Those are all Euro/Global quick attach.

If it is the Euro/Global style you are in luck since almost every tractor dealer can get attachments, HLA is made in Canada, a euro bale spear is about $450 new.

Once I get the tractor home this Thursday I will snap some pictures.

I suspect you are correct from what I remember from viewing the tractor and research I have done.

Thanks!

7030's were new in the 90's anyways. Has the left hand shuttle lever between the seat and fender?

That's right!

I couldn't get any pictures because it was too dark but I had a good look at the QA. There are two hooks on the top of the bucket and two holes on the bottom of the bucket. There is a single lever that moves the spring loaded pins that go into the bottom of the bucket holes.

I am I correct to assume that this would be a Euro style QA?
