MMM.....
That was my situation here, I was in trouble before I knew it. Only a few revolutions of the tires & I was hung on the undercarrige & when I tried the front bucket there was nothing at all to give it grip. With some time & after a while with the hoe we made it out & gained experience.

Just be careful with that chain on the bucket.
I've already had to replace the curl piston twice on my Century! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Herdfan...
That's exactly how I had to get out - by curling the bucket, the booms didn't have enough power, I had to put as much strain with the booms & then curl the bucket. Anything you would have done differently ??

Henro's got it right. Mud just don't level worth a darn.

Depends....if it is muddy enough, it will level on it's own. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
