Loader Old Fart--newbie question

[duffer]

Hey guys...(and guy-ettes)

Re: 2538 with FEL

I'm trying to find out if my quick loading front superstructure and hook ups for the FEL will fit a "skid-steer" hookup for implements. Trying to get my dealer to call back is impossible, and the root rake I want to buy is spec'd for a skid steer.

I'm pretty sure it will work, but the manufacturer of the root rake can't tell me, (or doesn't want to take the time to find out). The maximum width of my quick connect is 43 1/8" from side to side.

I'm sure some of you guys know off the top of your head. I don't want to spend $$$ on an implement and then have to take it back.

Thanks in advance.

Here's an old thread that has some diagrams that might help you out.

To my knowledge Mahindra has only used the "skid-steer" or SSQA style for their quick attach FELs. If you have 2 levers that allow you to remove and replace the bucket it should be SSQA.

The 2538 is a skid-steer set up. My forks lines up perfectly to the quick attach.

Thanx guys. I appreciate the input.

Pulled the trigger today for a root rake QA for the FEL, to clear limbs, roots, etc on 10 newly acquired acres. Already hired a guy to dig out the stumps, but there is a lot of "debris" left behind to pile up and burn.

Again..thanx for the input. Hope I can return the favor soon.
