Well hopefully it gets easier with that man door if you do get a tandem I would weigh yourself on a cat scale so you have a better ideal on how to tell the loader you want loaded
to all end dump haulers...

@ChicagoJohn Ive learned to build little ramps to offset a lean, almost everywhere I dump is unlevel and I'm past the point in my life of trying to argue that fact to a loaded operator. A little work with my flat head shovel, and some creativity, and its business as usual. Work smarter not harder, and always be safe.
NightWind, ChicagoJohn and blade Thank this. -
@ChicagoJohn since tips are being given always check your load to make sure it’s centered. especially this time of the year. Level or not if your load hangs up on one side because it wasn’t loaded even could cause a serious issue. I rarely ever dump anywhere that ain’t on solid ground guess I’m just lucky. Did I mention I’m not a fan of having to shovel
NightWind and ChicagoJohn Thank this. -
So if it’s up in the air like that and the load is stuck, you’re expected to climb up and shovel? I’d assume you lowered it first but I do believe I’m misunderstanding what you all are saying lol

I would say no on the "slope detectors", never heard of them. All I have is my two eyes and my best discretion, so far so good
