Front Loader on E Bay

Can anyone tell from these photos whether this loader is complete? I am thinking of bidding, wise or not? Item Number 190421387492

It looks complete but I would be prepared to fit new hoses and you may need some fittings to connect up as it is not clear what pipe work is provided. Only one of the mounting brackets is shown but looking at another item he is selling both are visible in the background of that picture. I believe it is the same loader as fitted to the TE20

I would wait till a Horndraulic loader comes up. They are a more sturdy design and also more common, & prob easier to get parts for.
Allt the best

Will this fit a dexta?

I should imagine it could be fitted but it may require modified brackets to fit to the rear of the engine / front of gearbox. The axle mountings on a dexta and MF35 are the same so that end should be no problem

The axle brackets would fit but the MIL mounts on the front axle support on the Fergy so this would require modification.

They are not a bad loader for their size. I use one on my Fergy and have for many years. Loading height is a bit restricted but its a lot better than a fork.

There are time when you think to yourself, I could load this a lot faster with a fork, but when you try its a bit of a eye opener!

So am I right in assuming that they made a Horndraulic loader to fit the Dexta?

Yes, it's the most common type, see pic below

The transverse member of the mounting frame bolts under the tractor onto the flange at the front of the clutch housing, where it is bolted to the engine block. The two longitudinal frame members onto which the arms and hydraulic rams are mounted, run backwards to brackets (painted red in the foreground of the pic) which are bolted under the rear axle onto the fender bolts. I got mine complete for £120.

I think there is also a later type of mounting frame that fits a Dexta, but the arms are the same.
HTH!

If you look at the picture of the loader on my Super Dexta it is basically the same as the one above but does away with the angled section and uses simply a vertical mounting point for the loader which makes it easier to get on and off the tractor
