LifeTrac 6 Curl Cylinder

The curl cylinder did not work as designed on LifeTrac 6. The angle of action was too small upon lift to lift bucket to horizontal, so soil always dumped out of the bucket upon lifting. We replaced the 8" cylinder with a 14" cylinder, to obtain full lift, while achieving 40 degrees of dumping at 7.5' of lift at the tip of soil pulverizer bucket.
