What would you folks consider to be "normal" leakdown? Every piece I ever run has had some leakdown, I don't know what's out of ordinary for sure.
2810HST / ML108H
Empty Bucket: Rate Of Vertical Drop approx. 1" / 15 min.
Fully loaded bucket: ROVD approx 1" / 1 min.
Empty / loaded Bucket Roll over rate about the same.
3pt light load: 1" / 5 min.
3pt max load: 1" / min.
These seem normal to me, but I'm only comparing to pieces I have experience with.

I'll try to check this weekend. On mine, it'll drop/curl a couple of inches in the time it takes to fill it with split cordwood. It just seems excessive, maybe it's within spec.

So has mine. Did not want to go into the float position last time I used it. Have not taken time to investigate. Any thoughts?

Mine will barely stay in float. It pops out fairly easily with the slightest bump. I use the float position when clearing a light powder snow on a windy day. Much preferred, over the snowblower, especially when windy. It's a little irritating when it constantly pops out. It seems like the notch should be just a little more stiff, to hold better.
