How heavy, tractor and loader?

Just what the title says. I know how much. Had it weighed today. I was stunned.

Any guesses?

Oliver gives of the 1650 weighing 7,815 pounds. On the plus side mine has 7.50 - 15" front tires and 18.4 x 34 rear tires.

Unknown loader. I've looked a bunch and most all loaders aren't half as big or half as much to one.

I'll show more pictures in the next..

No idea, but two questions:

Are they wheel weights fitted at the rear?

Are the tyres loaded?

I would guess a heavy duty loader with all the bracketry, pump, oil reservoir, wheel weights and loaded tyres it could easily be the best part of a couple tonnes over the published weight?

That would not surprise me. Tell us more - is there an external pump, loaded tyres, wrights etc?
 

Like above, pretty sure tires are full of fluid. Once had valve stem about 3/4 up and when I tried to check air I got wet. Will have each tire checked before I take it home. Tire shop about a block away.

Picture of weight - weight on each tire.

No other pump or oil reserve. Tractor has enough hydraulic pressure to lift front end clear off the ground.
Bucket way up and ease into a fair size tree, I use the push of the tractor and lower the hoist to push the tree over and down.
Neat is seeing the front tires come off the ground when knocking down a tree. A lot of weight pushing on the tree.

That's way lighter than what I would figure. The ballasted Nebraska tractor test is just under 10k and that's no loader.
 

I thought something of over 9,000 pounds.
Why I posted, I've seen some very nice Oliver 1650s, some like new but never saw one set up like mine. Those 1650s with standard tires look so...so puny.
6.50-16 on front and 15.5-38 on rear.

Also wondering of fuel tank. Drove it to town, stopped to put in $80.00 of a gas and fuel gauge read 1/2 a tank.
At $3.89 per gallon, $80 would give 20 1/2 gallon and a 23 gallon gas tank? Will check tank and gauge tomorrow or day after.

Next project is the exhaust manifold....
