What effect does carrying a heavy load of soil have on a loader's rear wheels traction?

Carrying a heavy load of soil increases traction for a loader's rear wheels due to the added weight. When the loader is loaded, the increased downward force on the rear wheels improves their grip on the ground. This enhanced traction is essential for maneuverability and prevents the wheels from slipping, especially when operating on uneven or loose surfaces. It allows the equipment to more effectively transfer power to the ground, facilitating smoother operation, maneuverability, and stability when moving, lifting, or digging.

In contrast to this, carrying a light load could lead to reduced traction, where the rear wheels might struggle to maintain sufficient contact with the surface. This instability can be exacerbated on inclines or in muddy conditions. On the other hand, excessive loading may overburden the equipment and potentially compromise its performance or lead to mechanical issues, but under typical circumstances, a significant load like soil enhances rear wheel traction.
