Komatsu WA120-1 Tilt / Dump Power. Is This Normal?

klipsch21 ยท 2015-06-11 11:45

I recently purchased a Komatsu WA120-1 loader. I have some long forks on it and am using it to move some cars around. On the ground I can move cars around without issue. However, if I am trying to get a car off of a trailer (4-5ft high) this thing just does not have the tilt power to get it off the trailer. The questions I have are: Is this normal? Am I exceeding the limits of this loader? Would a worn out cylinder piston seal or other hydraulic issue cause this sort of lack of power? Any help at all would be appreciated.
