S130 Mounting Brackets

[Tom in Mo.]

New here. Long time tractor guy. I just got a S130 and am wondering what these heavy, cast steel brackets are for. I have the Operator Manual and it doesn't tell me. They are not for tie downs but work for that.

Those are mounts to help secure an attachment, likely a back hoe.

Makes sense, thanks.

Hey Tom would you be willing to to sell those brackets?

I'm thinking I better leave them on there as I might need them. You could find a construction equipment scrapyard to search. Old skidsteers have to go to a boneyard somewhere.
