Thought I would show you a little video of my quick tach bucket and pallet fork setup for my Ark 700 loader on my AC 720. This was built for me by my good friend Mike Brown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2RR608foUs" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2RR608foUs

| Very nice, but there's no way to really lock it in is there? It doesn't look like you can apply downforce with that setup? |

If you look real close when the quick tach detaches from the bucket, there is a spring loaded 1/2" dia. pin with a red covered handle that goes into a hole in the loader bracket or pallet fork bracket to lock them down so you can apply down pressure. You have to manually turn this pin 90 degrees to let it snap in place. I did not snap the pins in to make the video shorter. ------------- AC CA, Ferguson TO-20, Ford NAA, M-M BG, AC #3 Mower, SC Plow, PH Digger, AC 720's with Ark 700 loader & Brantly Backhoe, "Mini B" w/flathead Ford V8 |

Very nice job, looks factory. Nice paint job also.

Nice job with the 720 paint and tires look excellent and motor sounds very nice at low idle. Still have the Onan in it? Orangeman
