It is my understanding that there are 3 bucket sizes available for the TC-29, 48", 60" and a 68" heavy duty. My tractor has the 68" HD bucket and here is my problem. When moving piles of top soil it is impossible to load up a full bucket. When pushing into the pile, the bucket only will go about half or three quarter of the way in, then the the hydrostat trans starts to bypass. I am using full throttle, first gear and FWD, traction is not a problem. Once the bucket is in the pile, I cannot curl it back or lift it unless I back away from the pile, after that, lifting is no problem. I have changed the hydro fluid and filters for the trans and hydraulic system and the engine seems to have plenty of power. I guess my question is this, do you think the 68 inch bucket is too large and puts more load on the hydraulic system than it was designed for? Or do you think the system is low on pressure? BTW The tractor is also equipped with a backhoe that runs off the main hydro system.
