Northeast Louisiana | We have a JD 310C, which I think is a little smaller and older than the 580K, its more like a 480. We have a set of heavy duty forklift forks that we made brackets for and mount on our bucket. The frame on these allows the forks to be inverted, which is required for lifting a superbag high enough to load it in a seed cart.
Our 310 will lift it high enough to dump the bag in a seed cart, but it just will. We put the main lift up as high as it will go, then curl the forks up to get the final couple of feet to get the bag in the seed cart. It handles the 2000 lb bags better, which is what a lot of our seed suppliers have gone to.
So, I'll bet it would do it with the forks flipped over, though it may not like it.

Would a Ford 555D or Case 580K backhoe pick up 2,500 lbs.?
