Abstract: A loader includes a pair of rear supports projecting transversely outwardly from a longitudinally extending tractor frame. The loader further includes a pair of posts having receptacles at the bottoms thereof which are received about the rear supports when the posts are in upright dispositions, the receptacles being shaped for then retaining the posts on the supports. A weight bracket forms a bumper at the forward end of the tractor and a yoke extends forwardly from the posts and has a bight portion including a remotely operable releasable latch mechanism which releasably latches the bight portion to the weight bracket.
