Can Lawn Tractor be a Hydraulic Loader ?

For the project I used a John Deere LX188 lawn tractor, the tractor has a hydrostatic transmission and a two-cylinder Kawasaki 17hp engine.
This type of tractor is not designed for this type of work and loads, so I had to strengthen the entire frame and increase the wheel track.
To perform the power hydraulics, I used a bearing-mounted hydraulic pump with a capacity of 9L/min. The pump is turned on using an electromagnetic clutch that the lawn mower was already equipped with.
The whole project works great, the tractor is not lacking in power and working with such a loader is a lot of pleasure

Fill the rear tires with fluid, like the big tractors do, and add weight to the wheels. That way it doesn’t add weight to the drivetrain on the rear and it’s a lot easier on the tractor. Quality of that loader that you built exceeds any expectation. Wonderful job.

@cayankeelord3730 Месяц назад

That's what I use my old retired antifreeze for. I do recommend using tubes, even if they are tubeless tires though. Pretty easy to do. Use a garden sprayer and pull out the valve core of the valve stem. Rotate the tire so valve stem is at it's highest point and start filling.

@bobw222 3 месяца назад

Nice to see you doing it here and on a suitable scale. I did a simpler version about 15 years ago on a John Deere 140 H3. Wish I still had it. Best buy of my life. 14 Horse Kohler engine, hydrostatic tranny, and triple hydraulics so you had hydraulics for a 3 point hitch and two on the front for a snow/dirt plow, snowblower, or a bucket like here. Too bad JD doesn't make something similar today that is reasonably priced.

@WorkshopFromScratch 3 месяца назад

Great machines, but in general, fewer and fewer brands produce this type of tractors. Sometimes I like to look in the John Deere catalog to look for tractors of the same size as you mentioned, because I know exactly which model you are writing about, but they are slightly larger and, unfortunately, quite expensive.

@tomoaktree4951 3 месяца назад

Very nice build! I like all the little details that you added. As you indicated rear ballast is needed. I believe you might need at least 200+ kilos on the back. Also, watching the loader function, a higher flow pump would really increase the functionality and speed. Looking forward to see it all painted up!

@WorkshopFromScratch 3 месяца назад

Thank you 😁 Yes, today my wife and I will be painting, I have already done much more weight than in the video 😁 A short video with the painted one will be published on Friday. As for the pump, it is sufficient, I made a mistake when connecting: I bought a hydraulic distributor that has one slower hydraulic section with a floating system, this section should be connected to raise and lower, and I connected to the loading bucket 😂

@accordio321 2 месяца назад

Glad it’s flat there! When you have a lot of weight on such a small tractor it wants to lift the rear wheels. On a 2 wheel drive tractor you have no breaks if your back wheels loose traction. I always run mine in 4wd when I’m doing loader work. You have some good fabrication skills!

@@WorkshopFromScratch Thanks for the honest "Warts and all" review of your experience with the plans. Are those tractors 4WD? I assume they are post Sears Craftsman most likely from Lowes? I have much less experience with hydraulics than you and I will agree they are a pain in the ass. I have a wheelchair lift on my van and one of the cylinders started leaking and I had to block it off. Luckily for me Parker has a store in my area. I printed off a page from the manual, told the nice man at the counter "I need to block off this" and he got me the parts. He even loaned me some tools when the leaking cylinder expanded and would not allow me to close the back doors of my van. I wish hydraulics engineers could agree on one type of fitting and be done with it.

@wolfpreist 3 месяца назад

you made a pin on bucket... my dude... first chance you get, do yourself a favor and make it a skid steer quick tatch. it'll be more work fabricating, but if you end up using/making more attachments for it, you'll be glad you did. That should be ok for light garden and yard work, the issue you're going to run into is your front end is going to be heavy and your back end will want to come up. You added some counterweight, good. But you can tell its still light in the back end

@kameljoe21 3 месяца назад

I have seen people take small compact tractors ( old stuff ) and fab up skid steer mounts and they are far more happy. The skid steer plates are or were cheap around 100 to 200 dollars for a pre made one that you can just weld on to what ever you need. I have also made several using flat stock and its quite easy too. Once you have quick attach there is no end to what you can build. Have a portable welder. Build a skid platform with some tool boxes and bolt that welder to it. Add some bottles and what ever else you need. Resse hitch for grinder, table, clamp and so on and you got a nice skid you can load on a trailer, back of a truck and so on.

@WJCTechyman 3 месяца назад

@@kameljoe21Skid steer couplers are good in some instances but for a 16 hp gasoline lawn tractor may be a bit much. At minimum I would want a compact tractor like a Kubota BX series and even those are limited in skid steer accessories.

@kameljoe21 3 месяца назад

@@WJCTechyman You do know they have stand on skid steers that have much smaller attachements. From several brands including Bobcat to ditch witch. Mini skidsteers are quite popular for tight areas and smaller projects. A garden tractor is a superb fit for those attachments. Not only can you buy them you can also make them. Limit the ability with the old pin style will leave you behind. Even if you only have forks and a bucket the ability to pull a lever and the bucket comes off with ease. Pins are super hard and the struggle to line up the pins. To make the tractor even better one might go and look at the stand on skidsteers and model their build after them. They are about the same size or close to it.

@stevangucu522 2 месяца назад

I like the design and all the hard work, but you have to be aware of its limitations. I would recommend a strong protective frame. My neighbor was working with IMT 539 (Massey Ferguson 35), his bucket got stuck on the pile of dirt, somehow all the tension transferred to the frame and tractor turned over in a split second.

How did you determine the position of the tensioner pully, was it just by best educated guess, and maybe if it wasn't satisfactory you could just change springs? Fantastic welding on that front bar to the much thinner sheet metal to strengthen up the front end!

The lathe was refurbished by the previous owner, but because it had been left outside for a long time, it required cleaning and painting. When it comes to the drill, it's the best purchase I've ever made for my workshop.

@cliffhaskett7703 2 месяца назад

Excellent fab work. Although a loader probably cannot be bought for a LX188 , it reminds me of myself when I build something and realize towards the end of the project that I could have bought one cheaper. Not to mention the labor involved. But it's the satisfaction of doing it yourself. Wonder how that little JD front axle and wheel bearings are gonna hold up to the added weight ?

Lawn tractor, no! Garden tractor, yes! Wonderful conversion from lawn tractor to garden tractor! Excellent reinforcement of everything involved, with the possible exception of the transmission. I hope that holds up. I love loader buckets with a heel for grading. It may have been better to use pivot pins instead of bolts for the bucket. You had a great design for everything except for the two lever controls instead of a single lever joystick! ☹️ With all the work that you put into it I'm surprised that you didn't add the mechanical parallel linkage for the bucket linkage. Did you add a visual bucket level indicator? You also have the hydraulics backwards on both of those levers from the standard 2 lever setup.
