A front loader (12) is provided and is suitable for attachment to a tractor (10) which has an engine compartment (16) disposed forwardly of a cab (18) and transversely centred on a longitudinal axis. The front loader (12) is detachable from the tractor (10) and comprises a pair of lift arms (36), when in use, each being pivotally mounted relative to the tractor at respective pivot points (38) which are transversely spaced either side of the engine compartment. The lift arms, when lowered, extend generally forwardly and converge in front of the engine compartment to attach to a single, transversely centred, telescopic boom (40) which is disposed in front of the engine compartment (16). By providing a front loader having a telescopic boom wherein the front loader is simply detachable by a quick release mechanism, the versatility of a tractor can be increased in addition to delivering improved productivity.
