2250 and 2255 loaders, Pro's and con's, differences?

Posted by Mike on September 29, 2002 at 20:10:13 from (67.35.36.176):

I'm looking at the purchase of an IH 584 or Case IH 585 with a loader. I noticed a BIG difference in appearance between the 2250 and 2255 loaders that seem to be on either of these tractors. Is the 2255 a more heavy duty unit, or why does it appear so much larger than the 2250, especially in the lift arms?

Does either disconnect easily from the tractor when not required (like modern loaders)?
How much can they lift?
Can they, or are they fitted with quick disconnect buckets?

This link has a picture of both loaders. I wonder about the visibility when trying to look around those huge arms on the 2255. The 2250 looks much easier to see around. Any comments?

This will be my first tractor, so I have a lot to learn.

Thank you,
Mike
