A loader mounting arrangement includes a pair of mounting frames secured to the opposite sides of the tractor frame for receiving the lower ends of the loader mast posts. Each bracket includes a transversely extending pin for receiving a C-shaped forwardly opening front portion of the mast post. The rear of the mounting frame opens upwardly to guide the aft portion of the mast post end as the mast post is rocked downwardly about the axis of the rod. Projecting pin-receiving bushings in the aft portion of the mast post end are received within mating upwardly opening pockets in the mounting frame. The bushings are positively forced into the pockets by operating the boom lift cylinders with the loader attachment on the ground to assure alignment of the mast post end and the bracket. With the bushings forced downwardly into the fully seated position within the pockets, hole in the bracket are aligned with the bushing bores, and a locking pin is easily inserted to secure the mast post to the tractor.

Loader mounting

A parking stand of telescopic character that may be selectively lengthened and shortened between the ground and an elevated portion of a dismounted implement, such as a front end loader, and lockable in either condition, in the lengthened condition serving as a supporting strut for the implement and in the shortened and locked condition occupying a retracted or transport position. The shortened members are swingable toward the implement and locked thereto by the same means that locks the members in their shortened condition. The members are of channel shape and nest one within the other and are conditioned for relative lengthwise sliding by lugs means on the outer channel that extend partly across the inner channel and engage the flanges of the inner channel.

Parking stand for tractor-dismounted front loader

Structure for detachably mounting a loader to a tractor or other mobile vehicle. An upright pedestal is carried at the rearward end of each loader boom arm for positioning in a receiving support carried on respective sides of the vehicle. Guide and following surfaces provided between the lower portions of each pedestal and support facilitate quick, positive engagement of the pedestal with its support. A transverse pin at the lower end of each receiving support provides a pivotable support for a downwardly opening bracket which is carried on each pedestal and is guided onto the pin by the guide and following surfaces. Engagement of the bracket on the pin horizontally locates the pedestal relative to the support and vertically positions alignable and releasable fastening structure carried between each pedestal and support. In the preferred embodiment, positioning surfaces engageable between the pedestal and support force the bracket vertically onto the pin and restrain the pedestal against upward vertical movement. An adjustable bolt is carried on the support and engages the pedestal to locate its horizontal position relative to the support and assure horizontal alignment of the fastening means.
