[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 9245, member: 82"] The rule is, keep the heaviest part of your machine up hill and you will be fine. When the bucket is full this is the heaviest end but when empty the engine bay is heaviest. Avoid lifting the bucket high when facing up a hill as your centre of gravity will be pushed back and you *can* tip back. Its really just what you feel comfortable with. You can feel when the machine is light on its front wheels. In your situation you should be backing up the hill and dumping in front of you and leveling it a bit so you can drive back down the hill, at least thats how i would be doing it. [/QUOTE]
