Forks New Use for Pallet Forks

[Wombat125]

Needed to refinish my buddy's crusty old trailer. How do we move the boat?

Now he just needs to refinish the crusty old boat...

Forks are sure handy, and it doesn't look like you strained your tractor too much moving that boat. I just got a set of forks for my small Kubota, and I'm looking forward to doing many things easier with them than I could have with the loader bucket.

Nice job, great looking Green machine!!! I want to get forks also but keep thinking my 335 wont be able to lift much with them.

Not sure what you're trying to lift, but the CT335 is a lot of tractor; like 3700lbs without the loader. My neighbor runs a nice 35 hp New Holland and he uses his forks for all kinds of stuff. I only saw him limit out once trying to lift a full pallet of concrete sacks. He handled two half pallets just fine.

The only problem I have with the forks is they sure seem like a lot of money for what you get.

I guess when you see the size of these tractors youd think they could lift more. I prob will get a set, any suggestions?

Not really. I got the Frontier forks because Deere uses a proprietary quick attach system. With the standard quick attach, you have many more options.

Wombat125 that Green Machine and shop floor are way to clean.

You're probably right, although the Deere isn't quite as clean as it looks in the pictures. The floor is clean cause I sweep....a lot....

We bought this place because I liked the shop. I guess the house is ok too, but in my mind that was a secondary consideration.

I think the Bobcat skidsteer Bobtach forks will work with my loader, ill look at them.

Nice shop btw, it looks plenty roomy!!! Now its time to fill it up, haha.

Thanks

I use 'em for digging bushes out of the ground. Works great.
