Still looking into buying a M5n-091 with a loader to replace my 4 year old lemon deere. Could anyone link me to tell me the specs on that loader? Lift capacity and stuff. The one on the deer can pick the rear up pretty easy.
M16 loader on orchard tractor? Capacity?

I would call your dealer. Just a quick look I did not find a FEL for the narrow tractor. A standard M5-091 has 4000 pounds of lift at the pins.

Yea check with a local dealer as US equipment doesn't use a M16 loader (Canadian thing), and as BigG noted, most narrows don't accept loaders.
Huh how odd, most people here use narrows for orchards so moving bins and stuff or orchard work sooo loaders. Interesting that it's different in the US.
Maybe it not being common in other countries is why I can't find the specs of the m16 loader. They have loaders for them, common around here, my assumption is it would be similar lift power to the deere were trading in since they are similar size and the loader is similar size.
Ohh well I just answered my own question went to look at the pic the salesmen sent me again and it was of an M5 with a loader not an m5n. We are getting an m5n but i guess they both take the same loader, so that would mean the 4000 pound at the pins would be what it is.

My point wasn't not as much about the narrow as it was about the M16 loader.
Kubota's here in the USA don't use M16 loader's , They use LA1854S loaders, different specs.

Loader are heavy as equipment, and they can use a local manufacturer to supply the loader for the tractor for cheaper then shipping it especially with customs costs and delays.
I do believe the M16 loader is a specifically Canadian manufactured loader

Guy 20 mins away has the exact tractor and loader were getting. Loader can lift about 2200 pounds at absolute max. The lift cylinders are very small so this thing must run at 3500psi. Only thing I have to get used to is the loader is extremely fast so you have to get used to very fine movements. Fantastic tractor though.
I know that, at idle it is like so fast It's a blur. High rev I thik I could make an apple bin just explode with forks up through the bottom. My dad was talking to the dealer though and I think it is adjustable.
My older tractors are like that, the orchard tractor I'm replacing is fine at idle and so is my old new Holland. Like the bucket curl is so fast it's like you took a pin out and it fell. On the bright side it's adjustable i guess.
Welp the tractor is ordered, I got many opinions and tried a few of the tractors myself. Very fantastic and I am excited! After all these years with deere they decided to screw us over soo I guess I'm kubota now! If this tractor ends up great then kubota will likely be my new brand for the farm.
