I was out scooping some dirt up today filling in my driveway. Last time I used the bucket I noticed my rod was not moving that shows me when the bucket is level. Lifted up the loader to find the 1/2" pin sheared clean off. I was babying it. Anyone else have this problem? It is a 2016 L4060 HSTC with 6 hours on it. I can't see how that big of a pin could shear off and nothing else break behind it.

Don't have a pic. Didn't think to take one. Tractor is out on my property about 20 mins away. It's the 1/2" pin that connects to the bucket. Just a small pin that hooks to loader bucket to show when its level.
So your LA805 bucket level indicator sheared the lower pin. I would call your dealer and check to see if they can warranty it or just weld in another pin.

I contacted them time it happened earlier. They are sending me another one. I was just wondering how in the world that pin sheared clean off. I haven't had it in a bind that I'm aware of
If this is it maybe the bracket was installed incorrectly or one of the other joints hung up. Or it just was cracked from the gitgo. In any case seems like they should come out and weld it.

Mine isn't quite like that but close enough. Mine is just a solid 1/2" pin about 3" long. I'll try to get a pic soon
