FEL for L245 Dt

[spen]

I recently found a salvage L245Dt which has a FEL that works.I am in the process of removing and restoring it to be placed on my current L245 DT.The loader is OEM but I am unable to find any model # on the thing.In my search I have found they put several models on the tractor .I believe there was a 1720 and a 1730 but I'm not really sure. I have also looked for any manuals on these loaders with no success. I was wondering if anyone out there would know where to find the model # or any manuals. thanks

I bet that if you stock mounting brackets that are unaltered to fit the L245DT then you have a L1730 loader, that was the only model offer to fit that tractor. it also fit L185,L235, and L275.
The L1720 was not fitted to that tractor it was designed to fit a L345.

Why do you need the manual for parts? Just go to Kubota.com or many of the Kubota parts Wholesalers and get the #'s of the parts off of them.

Mine has a model 1200 loader. I believe it was made by Woods and then Kubota branded. I think I have a pdf version of the manual. Email me if you would like a copy.

I still have the glossy cut sheet on the 1700 loader, for the L185, 245 & 285. It doesn't list any sub-models. I would swear that my 185 had the same 1200 loader MagKarl mentioned. Anyway, send a PM with your email and I'll scan and email the sheet to you.
Does the tractor have an aux front-mounted hydraulic pump, or does the loader use the tractor hydraulics? It works much faster with the aux pump.

Thanks for your reply.I wanted a manual partly to see what model I had.I'm new at this and wanted to know what parts were on the loader before I asked for any replacements.I didnt want to look like a fool if it wasnt even the model loader for my tractor
