Read articles →This is a hands-on maintenance clip of an owner physically removing a stuck loader from his TN70 New Holland, not a buyer's review. It shows the actual process: freeing seized pins, disconnecting color-coded hydraulic quick connects using zip-tie markers, and discovering a broken locking pin during removal. Useful for current TN70 owners doing their own loader R&R or troubleshooting similar hydraulic connections, less so for shoppers evaluating the tractor.
Posted by the Mtnfarmer channel, an owner-operator documenting real repair work on his own tractor.
Free the seized pins first, then undo the hydraulic quick connects, marking them with colored zip ties since the factory color coding was worn, and back the tractor out from under the loader.
The connects are color-coded red, white, blue, and green, but if faded, use matching colored zip ties as placeholders so you know where each line reconnects.
A locking pin that locks the loader down can be broken and fall out during removal, which may need replacing or welding depending on part cost.
