Comparison T1054 Any Issues??

Those bars on top of the loader are for the self leveling loader. It will keep the bucket somewhat level keeping your load while you raise it. It just moves the bucket for you so your load does not spill

Hey Brown! No, not the self levelers, the small bars on top of those.

These are secured on top of the leveler arms to provide a safety stop for the loader when fully raised. Notice the left end, it’s shaped to fit around the cross pin and the cylinder end is flat.

Splithoof is right. If your loader does not have these, you need to get them ASP.
Anytime you are working under a raised loader, you need to use them. It one of those things that may only happen once in a 1000 times, but if it does happen, you are dead.

You are welcome. Sorry if I got a little too chatty!

I don't believe that is even possible, especially when talking about ones new toy, so chatter away; after all isn't this why we all come here in the first place!

Well I would have loved to have talked one on one with a owner before we made our purchase so I’m happy to oblige!

I never even saw those. Yes those are really nice to hold the loader up while you do work.

I just looked one over a couple weeks ago. I liked the 3 speed pto option for haying. The 750 pto speed or economy 540 as some call it would be nice to throttle back and run 540 implements at lower engine rpms.

I use the 750 pto about half the time. Just make sure you match the engine rpms and gear your in, to get the right ground speed. I have to watch myself to keep the pto speed around 540 . My old equipment can not handle much faster than that.

this might be of use when using the 750 pto

Hey these seem to be the same as the Kioti equivalent in many areas. Do they share the same engine, trans and cab? The Kioti has a clutch button though on the shifter.

No they are completely different from Kioti, different engines, cabs and transmissions. They are separate companies.
