Loader New GC1723e

MoMower · Jun 28, 2019

Did find a first world problem, complaint to make.

Due to the loader control location on the new machines, my right calf hits the 3 point lift lever and it’s not as easy to get on from the right side of the machine.

Not a big deal and wouldn’t change the loader joystick back. Just an observation.

MoMower, can you measure the height to the ROPS on your GC1723E and post.

I can't find any info on it and I want to make sure it will fit through my garage doors.

Thanks

I can, but it’ll be a bit, I take the top half off in summer. They do fold though.

On the GC1723/25 I do believe the ROPS on the TL is shorter and doesn't fold. On the TLB the ROPS is taller and folds.

I have the TLB: ROPS Folded is 63in, ROPS in position is 84in.

I am pretty sure the TL version ROPS will fit fine under a standard 7' garage door, the TLB has to be folded, mine does at least.

Thanks for the replys,

I'm going to assume that the fixed ROPS on the GC1723E will fit thru a 7' garage door. It would'nt make sense not too.

I have the 1723E without the backhoe and fixed ROPS. It is about 6'-4" high. It fits in my shop with double swing doors and a height of 78". I can provide a better measurement this evening if you need.

I have the GC1705 and it fits in my garage with the 7foot door, I also have a Sunshade on it so it痴 a bit taller and it still fits, just make sure the door is open all the way.
