Bucket cylinder play

   / Bucket cylinder play #11  
</font><font color="blue" class="small">( searay-- I have a TC45DA/17LA loader that when I dump firewood into the back of my duece and a half (loader cylinders extended all the way), the bucket will stop momentarily just before fully dumped then go the rest of the way. With only 53 hours on the machine I did not think this is normal. The only thin is, I was running at 1500 RPM. I should problably try running the RPMs at 1700 or above. If this does not solve the problem I'll have a warranty issue with the dealer. Good luck on yours. )</font>

Newblue that is exactly the way the bucket is supposed to work. When you dump your bucket by moving the joystick to the far right, there is a "regenerative" hydraulic effect that allows the bucket to dump quicker. It bypasses the normal hydraulic pump loop and essentially ties both ends of the cylinders together for faster response. When the bucket gets to the bottom and dumps, it takes a second or so for the regular hydraulic pressure to catch up and then "boom!" the bucket goes to the end of its travel. It's a little disconcerting until you get used to it, but it sure allows a bucket of dirt to be dumped in a hurry. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
