Abstract: A detachable front-loader comprising a loader assembly consisting of two arms (1) joined by one or more transverse members (2,3) as shown in FIG. 1. Each arm (1) is provided with a supporting device comprising a pivotable support foot (9) and a telescopic strut (10). Each support device is movable between a non-operational position wherein the support foot (9) rests against a respective arm (1), and an operational position. The foot (9) is retained in the operational position by locking the telescopic strut (10) in an extended state. Opposing ends (15,16) of the strut are provided with screw threads (15a,16a) which are connected to threaded members (13,14) pivotally located on the foot (9) and the arm (1).
