The second generation of industry-exclusive RTP Gen 2 with ESL provides a practical solution for operators with daily, repetitive, material handling needs. RTP allows the operator to set different position points for the loader with the flick of the wrist, activating the detent in electronic joysticks. With the second generation of RTP, operators can set application profiles rather than entering position points each time an application is in use. RTP Gen 2 with ESL removes repetition and fatigue from loader applications.

Loader suspension system for a smoother ride

600R Loader working with a 5100R Tractor

The loader suspension system improves operator comfort and loader efficiency during loader operation. This system is easily activated by the operator from the cab. When activated, the loader suspension system absorbs the shock providing a smoother ride in the cab as well as reducing material loss from the bucket.

The high-volume bucket is intended for use with lighter-density high-volume materials. The bucket capacity makes this an effective tool for handling snow, wood shavings, and other loose materials.

Materials bucket

Materials buckets may be used for loading dirt, gravel, feed, and light materials as well as scraping, digging, and other general-purpose task

NOTE: Materials buckets are not compatible with replaceable cutting edges or digging teeth.

Digging teeth can be added to the heavy-duty bucket for easier digging in hard ground or for breaking loose hard-packed materials such as manure or silage. Digging teeth are not compatible with replaceable cutting edges.

Five-tine round bale/silage grapple with grille

All of the H-Series Loaders use the same five-tine pin-on grapple. The advantages of this grapple are:

• The pin-on method puts the least amount of stress possible on the bucket.
• The grapple has a wide stance, making it more difficult to twist.

High-performance operators will choose the five-tine grapple for its increased durability and load-carrying capacity. Advantages include:

• The ability to handle two large round bales instead of one (where loader capacity allows).
• Strong grapple arms allow the bucket capacity to be increased by almost twice the amount of normal bucket capacity in materials such as silage.

The grapple is equipped with twin cylinders to provide excellent clamping force. 

NOTE: The center tine of the five-tine grapple is slightly off center to avoid contact with the placement of optional digging teeth.

NOTE: The grapple is not compatible with materials or high-volume buckets.

The H240, H260, H310, H340, and H360 Loaders feature a single-point hydraulic connection that also incorporates the connection point for any electrical needs as well. To disconnect the hydraulic connection between the loader and the tractor, it is necessary to relieve the hydraulic system oil pressure on the tractor.

The high-volume bucket is intended for use with lighter-density high-volume materials. The bucket capacity makes this an effective tool for handling snow, wood shavings, and other loose materials.

Replaceable wear edge

For those who frequently scrape on concrete, a replaceable cutting edge will greatly extend the life of the bucket:

• 1850-mm (73-in.) width replaceable cutting edge
• 2150-mm (85-in.) width replaceable cutting edge
• 2450-mm (96-in.) width replaceable cutting edge
• 2750-mm (108-in.) width replaceable cutting edge

Mid-mounted quick-couplers offer growers an economical approach to powering loader hydraulics. Hoses run from the tractor mid valve to the mounting frame where there are individually connected to the loader hydraulic hoses.

6M Tractor with R-Series mounting frames

Mounting frames are designed to evenly distribute forces during loader operation. Hardware is accessible to torque to the correct specifications during installation. The redesigned mounting frames ensure the automatic mast latch system can slide onto the frames to allow for mechanical connection between the loader and tractor.

Hood guard on 6155M Tractor

Hood guard on 6155M (side view)

The hood guard's basic function is to:

• Help rotect the tractor grille and hood from falling debris or stationary objects
• Allow for lighting at night

Compatibility:

• Can be used with or without the tractor front weight bracket but not with the actual front weights while using the loader (this would overload the front axle)
• Cannot be used with a front hitch

It is highly recommended to purchase a front weight bracket when using a loader. The hood guard is designed to be slightly rearward of the front weight bracket. This is so the front weight bracket is the first point of contact against lower stationary objects. The height of the hood guard allows better protection for the top of the hood and allows operators to see the top of the hood guard.

Switching from one attachment to the next can now be accomplished quickly with limited movements of the loader and without leaving the operator’s seat.

The hydraulic remote implement latch is powered by a hydraulic accumulator, which collects and stores excess oil generated through the normal operation of the boom (curl, dump, lift, lower). To activate the device, the two switches installed in the right-hand side of the operator’s station are pressed simultaneously by the operator. This action releases the oil, and unlocks the implement.

This feature does not require a third-function hydraulic system.

This kit includes the common tractor and loader wiring harness and hardware needed to install loader lights, hydraulic remote implement latch, and loader suspension system. When installing multiple options, only one wiring harness prep package is required.
