XJ2025 with a floppy bucket

   / XJ2025 with a floppy bucket #11  
I have been very happy with the tractor other than this annoyance. Knowing that just tapping the lever to get the bucket to firm up helps a lot. Hopefully my dealer will get the fix from LS soon. I promise to provide some feedback as soon as possible.

George's suggestion about the google custom search also helped me find a few other threads about this from early 2016, so it seems like a known issue. For now I will just back drag with the back of my bucket or tap the curl when it loosens up.

Temporarily for back dragging, curl your bucket to the appropriate angle first then float down the loader. As soon as it hits the ground tap the curl down again and it shouldn't flop. Just an extra step you have to take before back dragging. I wouldn't use the back of the bucket to drag. There's a whole other thread about guys that have wore out the metal doing that. If metal is going to wear out I'd rather it be the cutting edge than the bucket.

"It acts like it has a float!" They do, doesn't the 125?
