I was degreasing and pressure washing my tractor last weekend to prep for new paint and found a sticker on the left FEL tower. It was a silver sticker with virtually all of the print worn off, but I could read it from the remaining contrast:

KUBOTA
MODEL 22 LOADER
SERIAL 3028
ARPS DIV. ???????
???????????????

I was under the impression that the FEL was the 1200 model, but the sub frame and other aspects are clearly different and now I have proof. It is orange, with black cylinders and the old Kubota and gear logo in white on the arms.

I'm looking for more information on this FEL, a manual, etc.

Hopefully a member has a manual squirreled away somewhere. I'm guessing you'll have some fun, this Model 24 (B211) payload 350lbs may have been an ARPS

Other references around the net show a B6000 with an ARPS B206 loader, and a Model 25 as a B219 payload 500lbs
If/when you get a manual, unfortunately I wouldn't expect any parts to be available, it will be a fix it as you can, with what you can find to fit I expect, if you have to.
