Does he have a quick attach loader or something? When we had a loader on our 806, it took a LONG time to take off that loader. The best I ever managed to remove the loader and leave the frame was probably a half of an hour assuming everything worked to plan. It took about 45 minutes to put on again too, hence the reason we never took it off anymore. It was great having a tractor that big for digging into piles and moving snow, but the hydraulics were not the greatest (and had the early style short cast levers about 8 inches long), and the 06 shifting pattern, which, while it is fine for normal fieldwork, becomes very annoying, and wears out of adjustment FAST for loader work. Our 2500A is a vast improvement, and spoils me with a 2 axis joystick, great hydraulics, a great loader transmission (just move the lever forward and back for forward and reverse) and a very tight turning radius. As to the hydraulic issue, You would have to find some way to get pressure directly from the hydraulic pump and then get it to the valves for the loader and allow a path to return the oil to the rear end. On the Case IH parts site, there is an image of a power beyond connector for it that looks like it may provide this. I bet it is rare though, and probably no longer available
