From the manual Hoe Digging depth 14'3" Maximum digging depth 15' Loader Height to bucket hinge pins 10'7" Lift force to full height 3200 lbs Breakout force 6200 lbs Mine is a gasser, worked hard for decades, I bought for dirt cheap. She paid for herself in a month. At her age she leaks a fair bit of all types of fluid, but I just keep topping things up. My main observation would be the loader and hoe are oversized to the tractor, but as a home use unit, for the money I scored. I have the full set of oem manuals for an I600 TLB if you need anything |

Yes, yes they can. Mine leaked so bad out the top between the top plate and the rotor vane shaft the previous owner put a towel on top so he didn't get squirted with hydraulic oil. I bought a seal kit and pulled the top plate. That was a pain, but a/c at least made 3 holes differently so you could use bolts to force it up. Found the vane shaft was worn at the seal carrier, but I put the new seals in anyway. It slowed the leak considerably, but the proper fix would be a full tear down and a new vane, or a build up and machining of the old vane....that's not going to happen. It works fine, it just leaks like it's almost 50 years old. |
