new 4410 owner - FEL uneven at height

[Grayson Klassen]

To add to my last if the bucket is drifted back on one end it would look straight when lowered by as the angle changes when the loader id up it would look crooked. Look down on top of your bucket when it is lowered is ne side closr to the front of the tractor?

While the good natured banter is fun to read, first I have to agree about the front axle not making too much difference. My question is when the bucket is lowered does it look crooked then too? If it looks straight then why does it look crokked when it is up? I would check the loader boom.

Visually, low pressure in a front tire will cause the front to "cant" a bit...doesn't matter about the pivot of the front axle (although that might actually exaggerate the cant).
Like I wrote, drop the pressure on one side (not enough to break the bead!!!) and view the tractor from the rear or front.

However, I noticed this when the tractor was stationary...which may or may not be what Wango Tango is seeing. I aired up the tire (right front, IIRC) once I found the low pressure before I moved the 790. BTW, what I saw first was the ROP on a slight angle.

Whole point is to KISS first, before you start disassembling things.

This one is for Wango Tango:

Assuming the tire pressures are correct and the QD's were tight and not any leakage (and you've cycled the loader several times to bleed out any air in the system), remove the loader completely off the tractor.
While it's off, check the mounting brackets for tightness (bolt torque, especially).
Then re-install the loader and see if you still have the problem.

I would think the uneveness (is that a word?) would have been noticable at the dealer's lot.

Hmmmmm

TANSTAAFL "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch" the only place I ave ever seen it that way was in a book by Robert A Heinlen

it was. but i have little experience and didn't think it a big deal...i am hoping its something easy/simple.

It probably is...but do contact the dealer you bought it from. Although I'm sure the 4410 was sold "As Is", he might help you out if you've been a customer before.

Not to go off topic too far...yes, that was the first place I read it. Goes back further though..

To Wango Tango:
Any resolution on the FEL problem?
