This is a very stupid question for my standards- LA340 loader question

Hey guys, anyone with the new LA34x series quick attach loader, can you tell me if your loader arms pivot slightly on the loader mounts?

Whenever I put weight on my bucket and pick my front end off the ground or even if I’m pulling back on the ground with my bucket I can see noticeable movement of my loader arms rocking back and forth slightly on the loader mounts..

I’m assuming this is totally normal as it is a QA style loader so there is going to be some play there (unlike a pin-on style loader where it is fastened to the loader mounts a bit tighter) but I just had to ask JUST to be sure that it’s normal and that there isn’t something wrong/loose or mis-adjusted with my loader latches

Side note: I did make sure all my loader mount bolts were tight but it is the loader itself that moves not the mounts.

Thanks guys!

I have not noticed mine moving, but haven't really looked for it either. I will pay attention to it next use, and report back.

Don’t know about yours but my B2650 has a lot of noticeable movement when I’m using it.


Yah it’s pretty noticeable to me too.. only when I’m putting strain or load on the arms tho.

I did watch a few videos online of both Kubota bx quick attach as well as the John Deere 1 series and from what I have seen both of them had arms that moved slightly front to back as well..

I’m gonna have to say it’s normal but I’m surprised more people haven’t commented yet on this.
