When it comes to front loaders, it’s important to note that there are different types available, which can be confusing if you’re not familiar with them. Here are the main types:

  1. Front Loader (Vehicles) – these are standalone vehicles found in the vehicles category.
  2. Front Loader (Attachments*) – these are extensions for tractors that enable them to use tools, found in the tools category.
  3. Front Loader Tools (Attachments for Standalone or Tractor Attachment)

The first thing to consider is whether you want to use a standalone vehicle specifically designed for front-loading tools or equip your tractor with an extension and use the tools with it.

It’s worth noting that in order to use the front loader attachment and tool on the tractor, you’ll need to purchase the necessary attachment configuration from the dealership. You can either add this to the tractor at the time of purchase or take an already owned tractor to the dealership, park it in the vehicle options field and add the attachment on the configuration screen.

Front loaders can be used for a variety of tasks on the farm, especially if you’re running a greenland operation and keeping animals. You can use them to load, transport and unload crops, bales, pallets, manure, big bags and logs. Whether you’re putting bales into your barn, crops into a silage bunker, stacking up pallets and big bags of fertilizer, filling up the forage mixer wagon to produce animal food, or transporting lightweight logs, a front loader is an ideal tool for the job.
