Neighbor used to pitch calf barn with an H with no problem. It is definitely better if the pile is a "straight shot" and you are not turning corners in the building. You will build up the muscles in your arms without the powersteering. Lots of choices as far as brands especially since you don't mind the trip bucket. Older units may have parts availability issues and you may have to keep a spare parts unit around. Usually can buy older decent loaders (50 + years old ) for 100 dollars at auction. Newer IH (2001), New Idea's and others are probably going to run several hundred dollars but most hydraulic repair shops can fix the cylinders. One thing to remember is if you are going to use the lift-all system, the hydraulics stop when you push in the clutch. Also, if you get a hydraulic bucket control, you will need a two spool valve if one is not with the loader. Keep in mind that newer loaders typically have wider buckets than what were available when the H was made. This will affect ability to come into a packed pile and stability when raised and turning. 36 to 42 inch bucket would be good if available. Seen alot of people over spend just to move a pile of manure or snow. Alot of those tractors moved manure back in the day and you can do so too. Always want safety on the mind when operating. Tractor should have muffler that keeps sparks from bellowing into the barn.

Out of the yard, over the cows and bale piles, through the dozer piles, poplars, and brush, out onto the ditch grade road, past the noisy 6.2 diesel engine pulling my well traveled Suburban along. Well it sure didn't take me long to figure out what it was because I alrea
