Yep, I think most all of us have been there and done that. You don't get experience like that in the classroom. You drove away. Keep it in mind. Now you know where the limit is.... I had a similar experience with a Volvo L90 wheel loader about a month ago. I found out what the tipping load was at full turn, and that they don't settle so quickly when you drop the bucket. I usually don't get to excited about lifting a wheel on a tractor, and actually do it as a matter of practice when loading wide spreaders or trucks with a skid steer, but that wheel loader gave me quite a scare. So, just remember the limits, and stay within them. Like Allan said, it's all part of the learning curve. Don't panic about it. Just keep it under control. Rod
