How to Remove the Bucket on a John Deere Compact Tractor

A short how-to on a John Deere 1025R compact tractor showing the quick-lock pin process for pulling the bucket off the loader and swapping on pallet forks. It also covers counterbalancing once you add forks, with practical tips like tire ballast (beet juice vs. calcium) or rear implements, plus a brief mention of an aftermarket canopy. Useful for owners wanting a quick attachment-swap demo, not a deep buying guide.
