I just mounted a Koyker 150 loader on my Hinomoto 2304. The 2304 is the same as a Deutz Allis 5220 or a Massey 1030L. I ordered the loader mounting hardware for a 5220. The rear bracket bolted up with no problem. When we mounted the front bracket we realized that the larger front tires of my 4WD tractor would hit the front bracket. So instead of bolting on to the frame, we took a torch and notched the bracket and moved it forward as far as possible. That being done we mounted the loader. No problems. To hook up the hydraulics we cut the hydarulic supply line below the left floorboard. We then heated the hydraulic lines and then bent them so that they pointed toward the loader controls(right). We used Swage-Lok brand connectors to connect the flex hoses of the loader to the hard lines of the tractor. I really didn't know what to expect from this tractor performance speaking. I had a JD 855 and wasn't really impressed, it had the dual purpose bar type tires and the loader bucket wouldn't go more than 6 feet high. This tractor is rated at 26 hp, has regular ag tires and the loader with raise up to about 7 1/2 feet. It will push great. Pushed around a lot fallen and cut trees. Easily scooped a full load of dirt. It was hard to dig a full bucket of dirt with the 855. I plan on putting fluid in the rear tires and putting a 5 ft landscape box with additional weight on the tractor. This tractor is very prone to tipping now. I am even thinking about putting dual rear wheels on it to increase the width. I'll keep you all updated.

Brent, I've had some problems trying to get an after market loader to fit on my Deutz 5215 hst. 4wd. I ordered an Allied 95 loader and I ran into a snag as well. After installing the main frame my tires also hit when I turned them. The dealer that is installing it decided to send it back and where going to try a different manufacture. This one is made by SMC (Schwartz). If you have any sugestions please let me know. Lance ....
