Recently I've read a few threads that mention a "fast dump" feature on the LA1154 loader. There is an old thread from 2018 that resurfaced today that mentions this feature again. My loader valve has the float position for the boom that engages when you exert a significant amount of force forward on the joystick...I can feel it snap into a detent.
The posts seemed to mention that the dump position has a similar feature where you push the joystick to the right to dump, then push it further beyond a stop to dump fast. I went out and tried to find this position with the joystick (engine off) and see if my loader has it to no avail. I will say that with the engine running, if I push the loader joystick to the right all the way, it dumps scary fast but there is no definite detent feel at the extreme right.
My LA1154 loader is available with a hydraulic self-leveling valve but mine is not equipped with it. I have the Kubota Shockless Ride Accumulator though and it is in the "ON" position all the time.
I read the loader manual but didn't see anything about "fast dump" but I will check again.
