Front loader on a 7272

I cannot believe the Cub dealer and others with compacts can't answer my question (by that I mean locals in my area). With that, can someone post up a pic as to how the FEL on a compact tractor should sit when removed? I have read the instructions, asked to no avail, etc. When I put the foor or bar to the bucket and crossbar and roll the bucket forward, it does not lift the back of the frame far enough up to drive the tractor from under it. I have to more or less tip the bucket and lower it to raise the back of the frame which goes against what the pics show and directions state, By the time it is raised far enough to finally drive out from underneath it, it is stretched out and I am standing and leaning forward far enough to just reach the hydraulic lever. It is a real pain in the patoot. I am wondering if the rest may be the wrong one. I can measure it if need be. I know when I hook it up with the bucket in the level position, the back of the support foot is off of the ground by a few inches. I am thinking that if one half of it was slightly longer and touching the ground, when the bucket is rolled back, it would make contact sooner and lift the back of the frame higher. As I stated, a pic would be very helpful. I don't like taking 15-30 minutes of jocleying around to get the FEL on and off. TIA
