L555 Roll over question

[flopguy]

How hard is the L555 to roll over? I have owned mine for a few years and now I seem to be nervous about rolling it. One time I picked up a pallet of wood pellets (1 ton) and had it about a foot off the ground and it nose dived. Now anytime I dont have the bucket or forks on the front I am afraid I will fall over if I move it slightly.

First- The l555 is rated at 1700lbs. So 2000lbs is heavy. Second- With or with out a bucket on flat ground it should not tip. If you go up hill or load on trailer with out a bucket you need to back up. Always keep the loaded bucket low when driving. I have loaded a lot of trucks with mine and have never had an issue. Drive to truck raise and dump. Good luck.

One foot off the ground you can nose dive but not likely to tip. When traveling with any load keep it inches off the ground if terrain allows.
