Not sure if this is where I went wrong, but I actually read the manual for the LA402 FEL on my new B7800 and it got me confused.
On one page talking about 'Test Operation' it shows each direction that the control can be moved and what it does. For 3 of the 4 corners it shows the combination movement (raise & dump, lower and dump, lower and rollback). However, for the fourth (raise and rollback) it states the following:
"However, the blank position (Raise & Roll back) is not recommended for scooping because of insufficient lift force".
However, on the very next page on operating the loader it says the following re filling the bucket:
"Approach and enter the pile with a level bucket. Ease control lever toward you and then back to rollback and lift the bucket. The rollback and lifting of the bucket will increase efficiency because a level bucket throughout the lifting cycle resists bucket lift and increases breakaway effort".
To me, these two things seem to be saying the opposite to each other; one says to use the raise and rollback and the other says don't.
I would welcome any thoughts, suggestions, etc.
Thanks,
Graham
