I used to drive a F/L Labrie box, Why isn't there more being made, I love driving the Labrie F/L? I see the tailgate is some what the same, the only thing I had a problem with them, is that trash would fall into the hole were the hydraulic lines are and build up, I always cut my lines, isn't there something that can be made like a cover were it slides with the lines, on a track?
Front Loaders need two packer panel cylinders to allow enough packing forces so they are mounted in criss-cross position to reach a high compaction factor. Compaction is made by the packer panel pushing refuse against the tailgate.
Rear Loader compaction is made by a combination of two carrier panel cylinders and one ejector cylinder.
@WittkeLeachPM older front loaders had a single cylinder. Lodal still builds em with a single cylinder.

The Wittke FL Tailgates would not pop open if the lock blocks were used. I know this first hand.

I hope this will answer your question.
Thanks for watching this Wittke walk-around.

Why the hydraulic cylinder must attach to the packer in cross position (X spape)?
Why don't just attach it simple like rear load in vertical popsition.
