I have been having a bit of trouble trying to grade, and I think I know why now.
I ordered a Kubota bucket for my case machine (skid) because I loved the way it was built, also the size 84"
I had the machine in the shop today because i knew there was somthing just not right.
When I put the arms all the way down and keep the bucket leval the edge of the bucket is off the ground.
Or say if I lower the bucket and tilt the bucket that the edge of the bucket just toutchs the ground, the pan of the bucket is off the ground a good inch plus.
I know I can change this but I hate to get the welding gear out on a new bucket like this.
I would need to move the whole Q/A up a good 2"
I dont claim to be a expert on buckets, but I think you should be able to drop the bucket down and leval with the pan and the front edge flush on the ground to grade proper.
What do you think?
