    How to work loader bucket

    Hi, I have a question regarding efficient loader operation. On most loaders, including that on my L39, the lower left option (joystick pulled back and left) is blanked out on the decal. The first paragraph in the Kubota manual on Operating the Loader explains this... "however the blank...
