        I had the spec sheet for my Jinma ZL30 FEL and misplaced it. I also had saved several websites with the info that are missing also. I need the lifting capacity for my ZL 30. It has a 5′ bucket on it. Is the lifting capacity with or without the bucket on?

        Thanks much

          what I found was 450 kg. which is right at 1000 lbs . But I would say you will need weight on 3 pt. to keep rear wheels on ground if you pick up max. load. that is a WAG though.

            David thanks much. I do have a LW-7 Backhoe attached for a counter weight. I did see a spec sheet on the ZL30, but can’t find it again. I believe it stated 1370lbs and 2,000lbs Breakaway – just wanted to make sure from other sources. I called a dealer and he said that it’s rated at 1,400. “I hope so” I have a 1,300lb crated Lathe being delivered and need to carry it to the side of my house to put in my shop.

              I found my “BOX” of Jinma Tractor papers and information. The lift capacity for the ZL-30 is 875 lbs at full height and 2,200 lbs Breakaway. I rebuilt the lifting cylinders a few years ago with USA custom made seals from Hercules Seals in FL. and new tilt cylinders from Affordable Tractor. The hydraulic pump is strong (for now) and I use Multi Viscosity AW-30-46-68 oil that I am in the process of new oil change on the the whole tractor and backhoe. I know the I have good lift because I tried to pull out some schrubs at my neighbor’s and didn’t get all the roots cut. When I tried pulling them up with the FEL the schrub stayed in place and the entire back end wheels and backhoe lifted off the ground. Scared the hell out of me.
