# How Do I Increase the Lift Weight of a John Deere 70 Loader?
Loaders are valuable machines for a variety of construction or remodeling projects. The John Deere 70 loader is a diesel-powered vehicle that comes equipped with a bucket loader on the front. A powerful hydraulic system facilitates easy movement of the loader bar, and the bucket itself is interchangeable with other attachments. Since load weight is so critical to a number of jobs, it's advantageous to increase the total lifting capacity.
Instructions
-
-
1
Disengage the trip mechanism to activate the second hydraulic cylinder. This enhances the range of motion available to the loader and allows you to carry more weight in the bucket.
-
2
Detach the standard loader bucket and attach a bucket with greater volume, which will allow you to lift more weight.
-
3
Secure another attachment on the loader's rear three-point hitch. The specific type of attachment is not as important as its mass, since it will act as a counterweight to the weight lifted by the front bucket.
-
4
Replace the hydraulic cylinders with larger cylinders, which will make it possible to lift more weight but will also slow the speed of the machine.
