The Basics of Tractor Loaders

welcome to another Varberg implement basics video today we're going to be discussing loaders and today we have here the l1 35e that is mounted on a 2700 a series tractor and we're also going to use the DL 135 that is mounted on our 1700 premium Series tractor here this is a 1759 show you some differences and show you some ways to learn how loaders work and operate and how to determine and compare loaders based on specifications the first thing you have to know is some basic understanding breakout force breakout force is the amount of energy it can lift when it leaves the ground and comes up we're going to use our AGCO parts two and a half gallon jugs here and I'm gonna be your loader basically like lifting weights breakdown force is the amount of energy the amount that I can lift off the ground so that is your breakout same thing lower lifting off the ground or off the ground that is a measure that you're going to learn when you look at breakout force there's basically three different stages of loader operation stage 1 or stage a that I like to call it but just like a human doing this block you can sit here and you can lift a lot more weight what taking it all the way up so you staged a when I consider on a loader is getting their load off the ground they day you'll be able to left more lifting capacity in that area it's a good thing fire to fury heavy love a lot more lower to the ground he's been coming up state B is where we go from the squat on up to the next to the neck area this is going to take a lot more force to raise that loader yo Jana now we're lifting something we're getting a lot higher we're getting up here above me above the hood that is what I call Stacey that's that loner of trying to take that weight from here and pulling it up the year you start watching the cylinders he watches the cylinder is starting to try to push this load upwards day three of the loader lift capacity this is the hardest lift squatting is easy pull under here now the next step is taking the load above your head this is the hardest part if if you lift weight and the same thing with the motor is pushing that load straight up in there for victory remember there's three stages the loader lifts just like there's three stages to lift and wait we're going to take these loaders to maximum lift height and then we'll discuss some more whenever I want walk under I love her look up in the air because you can't breath yeah never walk under a loader that's in the air if something happens to the hydraulics we can come down and crush you even if you're working on the hood if you're going to be under the loader you need to safely secure it by putting an angle or a cylinder stop underneath the loader very dangerous what we've got now we just taken these rollers to the third stage and basically maximum lift so I'm going to go in here we're going to set up the camera next to the PL 135 and I'm gonna explain all three stages as the loader comes up you can better understand but I hope this helps you Squad is lifting a load off the ground bring it up to here is the patience to a stage three is the toughest part of it so when you're looking at loaders it's easy to bring it up off the ground the thing is loader manufacturers don't rate a different point that's where your research and understanding have to come in everybody rates a maximum lift height and there is a discrepancy there and we're gonna watch this cylinder through this three different stages this is breakout force and right there JJ is your squat it's picking out more this way the cylinder has more force as it's pulling this way when you get above the hood it's like pulling up to your chin that load and you watch now this loader is trying to push that load that cylinders trying to push straight up to lift that load that is just like taking the load over your head that's the understanding of hydraulics physics geometry all that stuff comes into effect when understanding loaders so there's more than a louder than just lifting the load and the weight and everything and we want to get discussed the next day you the next step is where is the maximum lift of lift capacity rated at some manufactures rate at the pivot 10 this is the pivot pin right here where the arm comes down and where this load is that dimension is your pivot then some manufactures rate 19 and a half inches forward which that's going to be about the front edge of the bucket it's easier to lift at this point than that point so if you're looking at maximum lift capacities and you're measuring one it pivot pin and one at 19 and a half inches forward which one's going to have the lower value you guessed it out here at the front edge of the bucket the 19 and a half inches forward the reason they do that gives you a more true reading of the bucket lift capacity it's the same thing as trying to pick up a load out here on your fingertips or trying to carry it in here your pivot pin versus your 19 and a half inches forward rating pivot pin would be like holding the load in here the 19 and a half inches forward would be like trying to lift out here a lot harder to lift out here than it is in here to hold weight just grab your weight put your hands out like this and see if this is heavier now when you're holding it against your body that's pivot pin versus front bucketed so make sure you compare equal specs when you're comparing loaders and loader operation the next thing all loaders are rated at maximum lift height not every loader raises the same lift height so that loaders got to be all the way up there the higher it lifts the less is gonna lift it's basic physics basic geometry you cannot lift more the higher you go just like I showed you just like a weight lifter the higher he lifts the less he can lift so you need to compare loader lifting heights when you could and lift capacity in unison together for example we have one loader we have two loaders per se one we can lift 90 inches and one that can lift a hundred inches and if they both can lift a thousand pounds which one can lift more correct the one that left 100 inches actually lifts more at 90 inches because it can take that thousand-pound load to a hundred inches it went 10 inches higher with the same amount of weight so when you're comparing loaders make sure you're comparing lift height and lift capacity and at what point the lift capacity pivot pin or bucket is up 19 and a half inches forward as you can see here this this tractor has a 10 on bucket pin on buckets probably going to lift more let's get stair quick attach because the load is closer to that pivot pin and it's going to increase the amount it can lift there's another factor that comes in on loaders if you look at this loader the bucket cylinder is attached directly to the bucket the pit lead lower army connected directly to the bucket if you add skid steer these pieces are still going to connect to the skid steer and let's go show you that real quick this is the exact L 135 loader but it is get steer quick attach here's our pivot pin we've moved that distance forward probably six inches there so we're getting that weight shifted a little farther forward you're going to reduce your loader lifting capacity there's another thing it's called bucket linkage our DL Series loader which is a deluxe loader offers bucket linkage bucket linkage you can see we're attaching at the pivot pin here but we have this double bar linkage in here what that does is gives assist to help increase the loader cycle times but it also increases lift this is helping with geometry and physics again for them smart people to learn that in school bucket linkage helps pull the load back the cylinder is pulling here instead of at this point so it gots better leverage to pull that load back so that is one of the difference between an l series loader and a DL series loader is bucket linkage you're going to get a little faster cycle times you're going to get a little more power when you're curling the bucket that's basically the difference between an L serie the DL 1:35 and the L 1:35 B is bucket linkage it's a deluxe loader versus our standard loader depending on the models this is a premium tractor we're putting the DL Series loader on that is a basic tractor the E Series we're talking about bucket tilts and curls dump and curl folks basically that bucket cylinder is just like doing this it's pulling that load right here this elbow is pulling just like we're pulling right here it's easier to do that then try to lift it this way that's going to take more more strength to do it this way to pull that load this way then curl it with the cylinders this way that's the difference it's one of the differences when you're looking at motors you need to look at the loader and look at the differences in the loader not all loaders are created equal this is massey ferguson and we got two different series what about all the different brands in the world there's things about massey ferguson loaders that unlike any other loader we have in greasable galvanized pins that are locked this pin cannot move it stabbed here so it makes that cylinder or the bushing work on the outside of the pin instead of the pin turnin i've seen a lot of loaders the pin turns then you wear out your arms and then you got a sloppy loose loader in greasable pins a lot of these learners have bushings replaceable bushings in here but this pin is indexed every one of them is indexed to keep it from pinning and the loader the part that moves will move on the pen not the pen inside that's one of the differences when you're looking for loaders make sure you compare is close to apples apples a loader lift chart as you can see here more load the lower it is to the higher you race is less load that's standard physics you cannot change that that is just one of them laws that I'd forgot from physics class that happens in the real world and it happens to loaders the higher you lift a load the less you can lift so when you're comparing loaders make sure you compare maximum lift height and maximum lift capacity and you together as one component versus looking at lift capacity only that is the biggest tip that I can tell you about loaders now one thing I wanted one last thing we're gonna fire up the 1759 here here's watch this bucket I'm gonna start it out level on the ground with my bucket level indicator that's one thing we're gonna set the bucket level indicator and we're gonna lift this loader from the ground up and I'm going to show you one of the things that happens with loaders to set the bucket level indicator we've set the bucket level on the ground look that guy right there and that's gonna tell you when it's flat on the ground but watch this load this bucket as we go up what did the bucket do it actually tilted back that is a very dangerous thing if you're new to loaders is when you raise that loader up that buckets going to tilt back on you so make sure when you as you raise the loader you also adjust your pretension into another basics from Varberg implement I hope that helped you learn some of the basic principles of loader operation and how loader works and how to make it easier for you to compare the differences thanks for tuning in another basics from Varberg implement tune in next time when we go more in depth to teach you more about tractors track their operations and the great products from Massey Ferguson thank you you
