1010 loader

might have a chance to buy a 1010 gas loader, Before I go to look at it I need some advice. It would be used primarily to load my single axle dumps at my gravel yard. So while speed of loading is not an overriding factor I do need to work at a resonable rate. It would also be used on occassion on jobsites for clean up.
My questions are; Would this machine be able to work at a reasonalbe speed? Does anyone know how high the bucket will reach? I have a 1010 gas dozer and it has adeqaute power but I have heard that as a loader the 1010 is underpowered. Any thoughts on that?

Any comments are apriciated. Terry

You will likely be in low or second gear most of the time, but if you are just loading out of a pile, that is no big deal. A 90 loader on a 420 is about 9' to the pivot pin on the bucket, so I would say a 1010 should be a foot or better more than that.

Another question. What is the weight capacity of the loader?

I don't have a book for it, but my guess is probably 10,000lbs breakout, 4,000 deadlift or better.

The book says the bucket will reach 10' 1.5" measuring from the cutting edge with the bucket bottom parallel to the ground which is also the hing pin height. The bucket will go down below ground 8" (again bottom of bucket parr to grd) With the bucket in the dumped position, the cutting edge is 8' 1". The weight capacity = "bucket pry out" is 8,500#, "lift (full height)" is 4,000#. The entire machine (not including any counter weights) is 9,350#, add 585# if it has the #35 Ripper on the back. Raising time is 6 seconds, lowering time is 4.5 seconds and dumping time is 1.5 seconds. I have a machine just like what you are looking at. I wish I could tell you how fast it is but I am still in the rebuilding stage on mine. The gas engine was stuck and the left side axle was in bad need of new bearing etc etc. The machine is pretty easy to work on and Lavoy has (or can get) just about any parts you may ever need.
Best regards,
Jim

Terry-

Here is a link to the original spec sheet for a '63 1010 Crawler Loader- it may give you some additional info you may want.

Thanks for the info guys, that should be enough to make a informed decision. If I'd had sources of info like this years ago could have saved a lot of headaches from buying the wrong equipment.
