- Grand L3540 ,724 loader, bucket, grapple and now forks also! And just for OP.. a pool!
I'm having difficulty with the breakout force on the bucket on my Kubota L3540 with a LA724 loader with the QD bucket system.
Just got the tractor back from the dealer, they went through the whole hydraulic system and also turned the pressure to max specs.. the problem is still there.
The Kubota tech noticed the bucket I have is not a Kubota bucket but an old bucket made up by the previous owner to work on the QD system. It did not go with the tractor to the dealer, it had the grapple on it.
Anyway, he's thinking that the bucket is to long giving up its proper leverage, so what I'm needing is the distance from the hydraulic cylinder pin to the leading edge of the bucket for comparison to the one I have now. He did not have this model loader/bucket on his lot to measure nor could we find measured drawings showing this distance.. your help would be much apreciated.
This is a side picture of my current bucket, distance from that pin to leading edge of my bucket is right at 35 inches.
Thanks.
