i have 'Soft Ride' on my Quicke (ALO) loader. i had to wait for it so got to use the machine for almost a year without it. Now having it, it is a nice feature. I road a lot into town. Even with the empty bucket/forks it helps with bounce.
Doing precise work is not easy with it 'on' as the loader is spongy feeling and will bounce a bit when you stop moving.
I'd likely get it again, but could live without it if I had to. it was a $1000 touch here in canada.

Does your accumulator setup have only one manual valve and a pressure tank? Do you have a part number on your reservoir? How do you discharge the reservoir?
