Chillton to euro 8 headstock/adapter plate

[Miles East]

Just picked up a CS110, MX/Chillton loader, however have access to euro 8 attachments. Can anyone point me in the right direction for a headstock conversion. Can’t seem to find one that fits. It’s a lot of effort sending these units back

Plenty of firms making adapter plates but if you only need to use Euro 8 you’re probably better off change the headstock. MX could definitely supply you with one, wether any other manufacturers could at a cheaper price I don’t know.
Your…….I presume, current MX headstock will have some second hand value if you want to sell it

Hi Miles

I am after the same thing as you were, which off the shelf headstock did you manage to fit your MX loader? I’ve got a MX100 and am on the hunt! Cheers

I wasn’t sure that the top levers would line up right, but they do… just!

Hi Miles thanks for that! Unbelievably one of those came up for sale next door to my work so I’ve picked it up and tried that one. It lines up all ok apart from my bottom pins on the loader are 35mm, but the top ones are 30mm like both pins on the headstock! Did you have this problem?

Drill out the headstock bottom holes to 35mm & get a couple of pins made.
These modifications are quite common with generic fit headstocks on older loaders.

I didn’t no, however as mentioned, fairly easy fix to get it drilled out - game changer having euro 8 - so easy to pick up attachments, chilton attachments ya are a rare breed these days! Just welded new bars let’s onto existing chilton forks I had, torched old off and nice new euro 8’s on
