All articulation works without issue besides scooping the bucket. Not sure if bucket is jammed or what. Just sprayed it down with panther piss and may try removing the bucket.

Thanks in advance for any input!

Stuck bucket on jcb 1400b

Bucket appears to be stuck all the way open (the movement is jerky and it slammed into a big stump while open, I believe the lines need to be purged and that's next once I fix this)

Any advice on how to get it unstuck? All other hydraulic controls work, just can't scoop to bucket.

Started my sourdough journey on Sunday and baked my first loaf Monday, second Wednesday and third today.

I am wondering what I am doing wrong to not get larger bubbles? The bread is very much enjoyable and has excellent spring to it, but it's just not getting the bubbles I'm wanting.

This is the recipe I used for the first two loaves:

125g starter
500g white flour
325g water

Combine gently and leave to fermentolyse for one hour.

Add 12g salt and fold gently into the dough.

30 minutes, first SF

30 minutes, second SF

30 minutes, first CF

30 minutes, second CF

30 minutes, third/final CF

Leave to double in size before transferring gently to a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper and cold fermenting in fridge overnight.

Remove from fridge and let rest 60 minutes before preheating oven to 450f with uncovered Dutch oven in center rack.

When oven is preheated, place three ice cubes into Dutch oven and place parchment paper with dough atop the ice cubes. Return Dutch oven to oven with lid on for 30 minutes. Remove lid from Dutch oven, lower heat to 425f and bake additional 15 minutes.

Remove and place on cooling rack, let loaf alone for st least 1 hour.

The only variation to this was the Sundried tomato loaf. I used 100g diced Sundried tomatoes, and reduced my water from 325g to 285g. I also used 6g salt vs 12, but next time I'll try 10g.

Thanks for any advice you can give!
