MF 3060 and loader

Hi everyone,
Momentous day yesterday. Fitted the MF 880 loader to the 3060 for the first time after weeks of work making the tractor
brackets from scratch. Brackets NLA from MF and failed to find a breaker tractor with 880 brackets in the whole of the
UK and Ireland and even a couple of breakers in France. Very pleased with the result so far. Still loads to do. One ram
to reseal and then strip it, refurb the beam bushes weld up any cracks and a new coat of paint and decals. Then carry
on with the fabrication of the new bucket.

Cheers

Very tidy. Would like to replace my current loader tractor with a MF 3000 series... Have a 3670 as my big tractor, 3070 would be perfect .
 
Hello,
Yes you are correct. Three 'bullet' pins on each side and then two 7/16" lynch pins (what do you call them?) through
the bullet pins in the rear brackets. The front bullet pins are not retained. A very simple idea that has a good
working life and makes the loader very easy to attach as long as it has not moved since removal. Parking legs in the
front should keep it in place as long as they do not sink into the ground. Ramps on the tractor brackets give about
3/4" tolerance.

Wow. While I am guessing that is plenty strong, it seems light. Better than the 500 series Deere loaders that use two of those pins to hold the bucket on the loader arms though. :)

No tools on and off though :)
