BUCKETS
1850-mm (73-in.) bucket with grapple attachment Included - BW15358
Five-tine round bale/silage grapple with grilleAll of the H-Series Loaders use the same five-tine pin-on grapple. The advantages of this grapple are:
- The pin-on method puts the least amount of stress possible on the bucket.
- The grapple has a wide stance, making it more difficult to twist.
High-performance operators will choose the five-tine grapple for its increased durability and load-carrying capacity. Advantages include:
- The ability to handle two large round bales instead of one (where loader capacity allows).
- Strong grapple arms allow the bucket capacity to be increased by almost twice the amount of normal bucket capacity in materials such as silage.
The grapple is equipped with twin cylinders to provide excellent clamping force.
NOTE: The center tine of the five-tine grapple is slightly off center to avoid contact with the placement of optional digging teeth.
NOTE: The grapple is not compatible with materials or high-volume buckets.

Guards
Hood Guard - BW14254
Hood guardFor 5410, 5410N, 5420, 5420N, 5500, 5500N, 5510, 5510N, 5520, and 5520N Two-Wheel-Drive (2WD) and Mechanical Front-Wheel-Drive (MFWD) Tractors. The basic function is to:
Help protect the tractor grille and hood from falling debris or stationary objects such as a wagon or mixer
Allow for lighting at night
Can be used with or without the tractor front weight bracket but not with the actual front weights while using the loader (this would overload the front axle)
Cannot be used with a front hitch
It is highly recommended to purchase a front weight bracket when using a loader. The hood guard is designed to be slightly rearward of the front weight. This is so that the front weight is the first point of contact against lower stationary objects.

LOADER MOUNTED FENDERS
Stationary fenders (QuikTach) - BW15741
Stationary fender (H480 shown)Loader stationary fenders are highly recommended for those operating in conditions where the front axle will be in full oscillation and turn frequently or where tight turns are made while maneuvering through gates or obstacles that will catch tractor axle-mounted fenders.
The loader stationary fenders still provide coverage for debris from the tire, but they do not protrude to become damaged in operation. The fenders can be removed to enable better access for servicing as well.
LOADER SUSPENSION SYSTEM
Loader suspension system with manual on and off lever - BW15864
Nitrogen-charged accumulator and electric valve
Operator on/off switch
LSS on H180
LSS on 5E and 5MAn enhancement to the loader is the suspension system. A great level of loader productivity is achieved with the LSS.
- An accumulator charged with nitrogen and connected to the head-end lift cylinder hose through a T-fitting provides shock absorption
- The cylinders move in and out to allow the boom to float
Performance
- Bales can be transported more efficiently from one end of the field to the other over frozen, hard-packed, or rutted terrain.
NOTE: Check bale handling capability of tractor before use.
- Pallets can be moved easily without sustaining cargo damage
- Pallets of seed or fertilizer can be carried across a yard without a bag spilling and creating a costly mess
- Properly ballasted tractor with LSS has increased stability, creating a smoother ride for the operator
Cost of Ownership
Reasons for turning LSS off include:
- Digging applications - With LSS on, the cylinders retract slightly, losing lifting power
- Holding a grade when blading - With LSS on, it is difficult to hold a constant grade
- Precise pallet and bale handling - With LSS on, the load moves up and down slightly while being positioned
- Parking a loader - With LSS on, when down pressure is applied, the lift cylinders retract slightly, making it more difficult to park
The switch is conveniently located in the operator station to avoid having to exit the operator station to manually move the handle on the LSS.
LSS can also be ordered with a manual shutoff. Depending on the tractor/loader model, the accumulator is located in different places. On the H180 the accumulator is mounted outside the bottom of the mounting frame. On the 5 Series tractors, the accumulator is mounted near the inside of the rear right wheel. On 6 series tractors and larger, it is mounted in between the hydraulic connection and the mounting frame.
