Need help from a 5xi owner with the FEL by Kwikway

Recommended Posts

Could someone with this attachment explain or better yet snap a photo that shows how the loader subframe attaches to the frame of the rear of the tractor?

Its obvious that the front of the subframe fastens to the mid-mount quick-tatch.  I just can't visualize how it fastens at the rear.  It looks like the rear of the subframe uses a couple of pins and clips but I'm not sure.  Available literature says that the rear quick hitch for the 5xi is not needed for the loader.

Any explanation or a photo of the installation on an actual 5xi would be GREATLY appreciated.

THANKS!

Andy

Here you go.  I knew I had one of these, someone else asked a while ago.  This is a view looking from the back of the machine.  There is one bracket on each side of the transaxle

Oh, and BTW, you do NOT the rear quick hitch (AKA plow hitch)  for the FEL.  You can leave it on, the Kwikway hard points shown above will nest under the tachamatic hitch.  I took mine off as the plow hitch hangs low and if you are moving earth sometime there are rocks in the earth which will damage the plow hitch (there is a thread on that here somewhere)
