L-4610 852 FEL Bucket leveling?

BeeBop · May 8, 2002

Does anyone in here know any adjustments or known problems in the leveling of buckets on this model loader? I can let mine to the ground and one side will touch 1 1/2'' before the other side touches. I can lay the bucket on the ground and it lies flat so the bucket is straight. Can anyone help w/this problem?

I think what may have to be done is to carefully loosen the mounting bolts at the frame, give a little down-pressure on the bucket and then re-torque the mounting bolts. Seems like I remember someone with a larger tractor having to do that to fix the same issue...

Beebop, before you go to too much trouble, check your tire pressures (with a gauge) they may look ok but may be off enough to mess with the loader.

This may be worth a try, I guess this would be an warranty issue since it entails trying to break loose these loader bolts. I guess a trip to the dealer is definitely in order.

I checked the tires kubmech and all checked fine. What else can I do ?

Kick it and swear at it? /w3tcompact/icons/hmm.gif/w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif

Sorry, couldn't resist! That's what I'd be doing !! /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

LOL, already tried that, only hurt my foot. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif If it were green I guess I would have kicked the loader off of it. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Let me know if you get it fixed. I am having the same problem with my 3710. I am going to check my tires tonight.

You will not believe this but for no reason other than rotary cutting one of my fields the problem has been solved, straight as an arrow. Go figure? I lifted the front wheels up a few times w/the bucket in my garage and perhaps the bumps in the field straightned things out?? How can you beat orange tractors, they even fix themselves /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Hmmm, everything may be fine, but if it was not level before and is now, I think I'd be looking real close at all the mounting nuts and bolts to see if I could find any loose ones and tighten them up real good while everything's level.
