Attachments and parts

One machine, many jobs: working with the attachment range

The quick-change platform is what stops a loader being a single-purpose machine. What fits, what needs extra hydraulics, and why to order it all together.

A compact loader earns its keep by not being a single-purpose machine. The loaders on this site run a hydraulic quick-change platform, so the bucket comes off and something else goes on in a couple of minutes without tools.

What is currently available

These are the attachments published on the site today. Each page lists the machine families it fits:

The full archive, with the fitment list for each one, is on the attachments page.

Reading a fitment list

Not every attachment fits every machine, and the reason is usually hydraulics or weight rather than the coupler. Two things to check before you commit:

  • Hydraulic service. Anything that moves under its own power — a grapple, a sweeper, a four-in-one bucket — needs an auxiliary hydraulic line at the loader arm. If the machine was not ordered with it, retrofitting later costs more.
  • Weight at full reach. A heavy attachment on a long arm eats into what the machine can safely lift. The lighter models in each range are the ones where this bites first.

The standard loader bucket page is a good example of how the fitment lists are written: capacity and width are given as a range because they are matched to the machine, not fixed to the attachment.

Order the attachments with the machine

Two practical reasons. First, we can confirm the hydraulic and counterweight specification while the machine is still on the build list, which avoids a retrofit. Second, everything ships in one consignment, which is normally cheaper and always simpler at customs than a follow-up shipment of parts.

If you are not sure which attachments the work needs, describe the jobs instead of guessing at the kit. Yard sweeping through winter, pallets off a lorry, loading a mixer, clearing snow from a car park — each of those points at a specific attachment, and we would rather quote the right one first time.

Two details that get missed

  • Spare wear parts. Cutting edges, teeth and sweeper brushes are consumables. Adding a set to the original order saves a small, slow, expensive shipment later.
  • Operator handover. Quick-change couplers are simple but they are not obvious. Make sure whoever runs the machine is shown how to lock and check a coupler properly.

Tell us which machine you are running, or plan to run, and we will confirm what fits it.
