Maybe I have just not noticed it being I only have 8 hrs on my machine. But when I push the joystick fully forward to let the bucket down it will lock into place. I can push it partially and it feels normal. Anyone had something similar

When you push it all the way forward you are putting it in float mode. Great for snow removal on gravel or leveling dirt if you don't want to dig in. This usually takes a pretty firm quick movement.

This is float mode is great for plowing snow with a blade on the loader keeps you from tearing up the ground the loader will follow the ground up and down works for gravel etc.
