My bucket is floppy.

/ My bucket is floppy. #21  
Well I finally made a connection- when I load the bucket with gravel then dump it, the bucket is very floppy - I can move it by hand and see the cylinders move in/out several inches. When I go full dump and hold it for 3+ seconds (until the engine lugs) it is fine again.

Without a load in the bucket, it is pretty clean- no issues.

So as mentioned above, either air or vacuum is behind the cylinders, making it mushy.

Read the first post in THIS thread from an old member named Kubmech, it explains it all.

Thanks Kenny- That explains it. If I push hard to the right the dump does go faster. I've not tried to dump a load, then backdrag but I suspect that getting in to that regen position will solve the issue.

Thanks all-
