Abstract
A parking stand arrangement for a tractor-mounted front loader includes a parking stand mounted to each of a pair of arm sections which are inclined downwardly and forwardly to a carried implement resting on the ground. Each parking stand includes a support leg and a brace, the latter being about half the length of the former and having a rear end pivotally mounted to a location approximately halfway between opposite ends of the support leg and an forward end pivotally mounted to a lower region of an associated loader arm section. The support leg and brace may be stored on the loader arm section by folding them together with a catch carried by the brace becoming releasably engaged with the support leg. The folded support leg and brace are then pivoted against the loader arm section and secured to it by a releasable latch which secures the top of the support leg to the arm section to establish a stored position. Movement of the parking stand from the stored position to a parked position includes the steps of releasing the latch and then the catch from the support leg and then unfolding the support leg and brace so that a hook at the top of the support leg is engaged with a mounting pin fixed to the loader arm section and a foot carried by the leg is engaged with the ground at a location rearward of the loader center of gravity.
