Another way to lower the load slowly with a tractor like an M without live PTO is to depress the clutch and leave the tractor stationary in gear and the PTO engaged. Throw the lift lever forward before pulling it out to lower the loader. In the same way, throw the lift lever back and push it in to slowly tip the bucket. Practice this with no load in an open area and not too high up until you get accustomed to operation! As far as chains go, yes they are necessary in the toughest conditons but a M is a very well balanced tractor for an F10 and has good traction in most conditions. As mentioned, watch your cable for becoming frayed. Also inspect the loader for cracks while you are going over it greasing the cable pulleys and pivot points. You can head off having to make larger repairs or more serious safety issues by making timely welding repairs.
