I realize there is some hype about the 'N' series in US - but I was just doing a search on the EU Case parts catalogue (580G :spaz) & I noticed a listing for 580ST -it probably isn't supposed to be there yet! - looks very much like the sideshift version of the 'N' Can't find a thing about it on the net - Does anyone have some 'inside' info?
Somebody must have heard something about this ???? :beatsme Sure looks like a "N" hoe on a 580SR
looks like another european new holland design.
It's showed up on Australian parts catalogue now - asked the local dealer about it & they say they know nothing about it. Probably have a few SR's to sell & don't want anyone to know a new model is coming...
For anyone who may be interested - it's official http://www.kingisback.com/580st_t/product_en_221962.aspx
Dang, that's a nice looking machine!
Does look the goods ATCO, time will tell. Hope this may help turn things around for their market share here in Australia - when it finally gets here that is. Did any body notice the fully intergrated hydraulic quick hitch How good is that! Hit the link & take the walk around & hit the + on the BH bucket. I've added parts picture as well - looks like it might work well when new - hope there is a mechanical replacement if required.
Dumb question I guess, but what does the 4 in 1 mean for lifting capacity?
A 4in1 bucket weighs more than a skid bucket - so the spec shown is the lifting capacity with the machine fitted with a 4in1 bucket. If the machine was fitted with a skid bucket (very unusual) it would be able to lift a higher capacity. If the machine was fitted with some type of quick coupler it would weigh more than a 4in1 bucket & would then have a lower lifting capacity... That shoud be clear as mud
Looks nice
That hyd. quick attach has been used here for a good...6-7 years or so. It's the same as the std Case Q/A that they have had for 25yrs except with a pin that can retract itself. They work great, have seen a few machines with the early design of it and it always works prett decently.
