Ride Control - If Equipped
Travel at high speeds over rough terrain causes bucket movement and a swinging motion. The system for ride control acts as a shock absorber by absorbing forces from the bucket and by dampening forces from the bucket. This system also stabilizes the entire machine.
A manual ride control system and an automatic ride control system is available.
