Handy Lift For Smaller Deere Tractor MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Forklifts 19-1-11 If you've got a mid-size chore or garden tractor, you'll like this mini-lift built by Don Moss, Tallula, Ill.
To make a lift to fit his Deere 870, Moss first built a Cat I quick coupler hitch. Then he took a portable hand-cranked hydraulic lift jack and mounted it vertically on the hitch to use as the lift mechanism for the lift arm, which he made out of 3 by 4-in. tube steel. He replaced the hand-cranked cylinder on the jack with a 2-in. dia., 16-in. long cylinder operated by tractor hydraulics.
Moss says the lift is ideal for intermediate lifting chores, like taking the straw chopper off his Deere combine.
