A common problem that has surfaced repeatedly throughout the years has been the issue of loading a larger spade onto a smaller tractor. Dutchman has been focusing on this dilemma and have perfected a design that eliminates the use of a 3-pt "lift-mast" assembly. Although the "lift-mast is still a useful tool for providing down-pressure to the spade, its increased weight and size necessitates a larger tractor. Dutchman's new design is made with the use of a "displacement cylinder" that shares the top-link with the tilt cylinder. This maximizes down-pressure and allows the spade's center of gravity to be pulled in closer to the 3-pt connection. The lowered connection also allows the spade to be raised high enough to accommodate a basket.
