Looks the business.
Hope it's easier to check the engine oil with that than the Quicke though.
Good luck with it.

It will come off the tractor a fair bit I suspect, though will be used a fair bit at grass harvest and thru winter to feed out.
Should be fine our Mx claas branded is on a fpt engine and is easy
Yeah,it is tight on an MX with a tier 5 engine,tier 4 may be easier.

You asked in another thread about the firm you were dealing with on this (prospective at the time) purchase. I'm assuming all was good? Since you have brought it
!Friend of mine interested in something else they have so was interested to hear how it's gone dealing with them?
It’s the brackets making it tight,not the loader itself.

Yes, so far very good, had a couple calls about the item and he checked my tractor serial number with the MX people to double check things would be fine. Also spoke to a local to him NH dealer and got them to measure the mouting holes to double check.
Chris was very helpful on the phone and also gacve me the names of some people local who hes done deals with.
So, so far Im more than happy

I'm waiting on mx fitting a loader to a tractor, the way it's gone so far I think you might have yours on first.
Engineer booked for next week I hope.

My experience with loaders is the more you take them on and off the easier it gets and the better you get at it
a heavy implement also helps
I have considered having a concrete block attached to an implement bracket to aid Removel and not tie up a bucket I might want for the second loader
also regularly check the tightness of the bolts that hold the brackets to the tractor

Mine should have been collected last week to go to mx, I don't know if it's has gone or not yet, dealer was non committal when I asked! Been a six week wait to get to this stage. Waiting on a part from France which explains the delay.

We’ve had numerous Chiltin/MX loaders since the mid 80’s and have been pleased with them.Having used quickie and Stoll loaders, both were crap. Owned chillton/ MX loaders myself for 35 years, they are in a different league . Just my opinion.
Recently I have bought a second hand Valtra with loader, first time taking the loader off was a right faff but turns out that was beginners luck, second time was a right nightmare and ended up bending the stays on the legs so had to resort to some lifting straps and the manitou to get it off. To say I’m less than pleased would be an understatement, indeed I’m toying with the idea of sending it back down the road it’s annoyed me that much.
As a long term MX loader user I would think nothing of dropping a loader off when it wasn’t needed, I’m starting to realise why so many Quicke loader users leave them on when they’re not really needed.
If that's real time video, then that's not quick. With an MX if it takes more than a minute, then something is wrong. And less to put loader on.

That's how I've always done it with the last 3 quickie loaders I've had with lock and go as long as it's level comes off no bother always use same bucket and know what position legs need to be in. Goes on even faster

Wastes 10 seconds before he even gets out of tractor another 6 walking round front of loader wouldn't say his pace was exactly brisk
