Kubota loader bucket not level?

If your bucket is low on the left side,,, next time you try to dig up something hard, use the right corner of the bucket. If it's off the other direction, reverse procedures. If you use your FEL hard, you'll see this a lot...

Thanks....ovrszd.....that's worth a try....that is, not too hard to do but I'll be easy on the stick.

I try to use the center of the bucket, rather than a corner, minimizes this problem. Understand, your FEL has the lift capacity to bow the bottom of the bucket as well as twist it's frame if used improperly.

Very common to hear guys talking about their bucket not sitting flat on the floor when lowered.

I agree with everything you said, but as I understand it the OP's tractor is new.

Yes it's new! Under 7 hours and have not moved any dirt or rocks yet, just pushed snow.

And if you chose to drop it off at the dealer for adjustment, after you drive off, the mechanic will hook one corner of the bucket under something and tweek it back straight.

When you check the pressure make sure you have the tire valve at 12 o'clock if the tires are loaded.

One other thought, put the bucket flat on the ground and lift the front end and see if the bucket is level or if the tractor is unlevel. I am thinking there might be just enough play in all the joints to make the bucket seem off level without weight on it.
