You can safely use a radical degree of angle, IF, you use float mode. Otherwise, plan on eventually bending your tilt cylinders.A question for you Ratchet Rake fans. RR says to set the bucket between 30 to 50 degrees and use both sets of teeth to rip out brush and such. However my loader manual says to set the bucket at 15 degrees max for back dragging in order to prevent damaging the tilt/curl cylinders. See page 5 of the manual. http://www.kmwloaders.com/tech_support/operation.pdf
What do you guys do?
Anyone have RR and Piranha blade? Seems the RR might be better for brush but I can't imagine it helps digging. I've been thinking about the Piranha since I have digging to do but I also have brush to remove and I'd rather not but 2 tools.
