    Hydraulic lift. Make sure working correctly. Not slowly or jerky and can steer at same time plus apply brakes.
    Go for hi lift model.

    Used have one that when you were driving in 2nd gear it would pop out. really annoying because most of the work we done with it would be in 2nd. Also leaks in the hydraulics were common with ours

    Thanks

    What weight would a original jd loader lift comfortably on one of them, as in would it lift a 750kg silage bale?

    Was the hi lift a additional spec model or on the newer ones?
