        They are available from the factory as an attachment. I have that option on mine. Videos on YouTube. You can probably retrofit one if you have the correct type of towers  (transom).

            The factory loader option includes a heavy counterweight that should be used with the loader, but I just used the backhoe instead.

              And if you try to pick up 20′ of 2-1/2 foot diameter tree trunk with pallet forks on a 284 tractor (even just one end to back a trailer underneath it) you better have a bunch of weight in the back, don’t ask me how I know. Almost had to clean my shorts :yes:

                Did you get that feeling like you were going to fly?
