This , for me , is great info . Have been cutting down dead ash trees (20 so far ) , and hauling them away , with a mx6000 with grappler . I knew it was powerful , but had no idea of the actual lift weight capabilities . this is an eye opener . Thank-you for that demo !!!
Thanks for this vid, really helpful! I have a new MX 5400 and was frustrated why I couldn't pick up a heavy load...now I know to crank her all the way up to 540 RPM and I should have no issue. Just got a snowblower on the back for counterweight so far. Thanks again for this awesome info :)
This video is interesting. My MX6000 with the same loader will barley pick up 2000 lbs of pellets one foot off the ground. After I tried that I noticed the bucket started to drift without any weight at all. Had to take it back to the dealer to get the cylinders fixed. I don’t think I would recommend picking up that much weight.
I offloaded bundles of fence post off a flatbed at 3000 lbs with mine and it was a little scary I gotta say but I managed to do it the la1065 is a bit of a beast
Hello, Did you do this test on an L6060 by chance? Im trying to decide on the MX6000 or the L6060 but the front loader has a drastic difference between the 2 tractors. I was hoping that the L6060 was just under rated
Honestly no where that I can find does it say what it is calculated for/at, just the capacities. I THINK that they are rated for max lift capacity to full lift height at the top point of lift height but that is not how most people use these loaders.
There's no way that a tractor that big should not be able to lift a ton of pellets (50 bags on a pallet) and then some. I was shocked when I went to lift it and it couldn't do it, my ballast wheels and backhoe were fine for ballast but the loader just couldn't lift it. It's underpowered for how big it is! It doesn't have mounting points for transportation and a few other simple things it should have.
You must think this tractor is never going to get strained to the maximum by the new owner ? What planet do live on ? This is not a lawn tractor . It's going to happen from time to time , through out it's years of service .
Wrong. "Another tractor with impressive resale value is the Kubota M Series. According to DTN Progressive Farmer, Kubota is one of the top five brands with the least amount of problems reported by respondents. This reliability translates into a strong resale value for Kubota tractors." Google it.

I think he is telling stories about how heavy he is 😂 lol great videos
Very impressive loader!

Great demonstration..thanks 👍
Thank you. Great video.
You have to test a M62!

We haven’t done one on the Grand L, but we have done one on the MX series which is very similar!

Cant believe he stood on the pallet LOL!
Are ratings for tractor loaders at 50% of tipping like a skid steer’s ratings?
Honestly no where that I can find does it say what it is calculated for/at, just the capacities. I THINK that they are rated for max lift capacity to full lift height at the top point of lift height but that is not how most people use these loaders.
Impressive!
Why you didn't do this test with a bucket instead of forks most of us use a bucket more. thx for the test
That is a accurate point to make! The main reason being, it is way easier for me to load weights on a pallet, then in a tractor bucket.

Nice testing with a customers tractor

Grand total not 2800 but 2860
1690 + 600= 2290
Not 2230
Kubota is a poorly built tractor. The tractor drops like a rock at trade in time. Get a better brand that holds value.
Wrong.
