Prevent Front Loader Bending of your Kubota Compact Tractor
A bent frame or damaged hydraulics can be the result of wrong usage of the front loader of your compact tractor. In this video the principles of bending are described and how to prevent this.
A more in-depth view on the effect of different types of loads onto the hydraulics and the mechanical construction of the front loader is presented that can result in bending. The strength and stiffness of the front loader construction is discussed to understand why certain loads should be avoided. This also shows that the front loader construction together with the hydraulics is very strong as long as you used it as intended.
At the end of the video 6 tips are presented to avoid bending of your front loader construction.
