I could tell you what I've lifted with it, but I wouldn't recommend it...

The problem is the B was not made for a loader. The stress you put on the torque tube by lifting lots over long periods of time will eventually show its ware. The loaders were not really made as loaders but more as manure lifts for filling straw laden with muck into spreaders around the barn yards and things of that sort. I think it would be ok with moving snow but I wouldn't be lifting logs or heavy loads with it, even if the loader can handle it. The loader might be able to handle it but the tractor is another story. Make sure you have rear tires filled with fluid AND wheel weights, no matter what or how much you decide to lift. You CAN lift both back wheels off the ground so keep your bucket low when using it. Don't put it over your head like it's capable of doing. You also risk dumping whatever you have backwards and onto your head.

Morton has good advice, I restored one and have it on a 39B , It is now retired to show status.

Just wondering what type of pump everyone uses to power their Henderson loader? Mine came without a pump and I find the stock B hydraulics are not really designed for this type of attachment.

All the Henderson loaders, as far as I know, came with the Char Lynn PTO Pump.
