[AJD] Loader

[John Wilkens]

Karl, I believe that would be a model 50 loader--foot pedal operation, trip 
bucket, straight arms.  There's a photo of it on pg 345 of "John Deere 
Tractors and Equipment."   I have a 50 behind the shop with bent cylinder 
rams.  (Another project!)     These were typically used on As and 
Gs.  There is a smaller version with the straight arms--model 40--shown on 
a JD MT tractor.   John W.
