I've never used a loader on a "real" tractor, but I still remember helping a friend build a house. I was carrying logs to the house while he drove nails in each log. We used a rented Bob Cat. The first time I loaded a log and raised it up maybe 4 ft off the ground, the whole d.....d thing headed for the ground, while the back wheels went UP. The whole machine was tipped up at about a 45 degree angle! I hadn't put the seat belt on, and I'll say I had a hard time staying in that thing. So the advice about carrying low is very good advice. If it's low and tips, the scoop will soon hit the ground. I expect some weight on the drawbar or on some sort of rear platform would help.
