I used dirt buckets, pallet forks(home made) land plane, bale spear and rock bucket on it. Granted I couldn't lift allot but when that's all you have then you make due.. I added weights(JD garden tractor weights) on the back and I could move 1500 lb round bales around. I could get them off the ground about 8" but that's all I needed to move them. So don't sell these little loaders short. All they need is more counter weight. I sold this loader 3 years ago after fixing it up then bought it back 6 months ago to clean out my barn that was made for this loader. Used it then sold it for 2x what I bought it back for. I will say you need a seat belt, I never had one and never got bucked out but I smacked my head on the ROP many times! I went to my local dealer and asked about used seats and they had some and just gave them to me before I sold my 610 the first time. Try them before you buy new. I only had to make the mount a little wider to make the seat work. On the clutch to hyrdo wow I had a really hard time going back to the 610 even for the 30 hours just cleaning all my junk out of the barn. Wow really wish I could of got my 250 in the barn. Really hated to see that loader leave the second time but its now someone else first loader.</p></blockquote><p></p>
