Sand, gravel, etc. weighs about 3000 pounds per cubic yard. Your bucket is probably about 1/2 to 3/4 cubic yard unless it is a snow bucket in which case it might be a yard or yard and a quarter. You should be able to fill a 1/2 to 3/4 yard bucket or even a full yarder as full as you like and be OK, except that if you crowd it too hard into the pile, it will hydraulically stall when you try to lift it. If it is any kind of decent brand of loader at all and in any kind of decent shape that shouldn't hurt it as far as damaging anything. If it has trouble lifting, it could be low on fluid or bad fluid overdue for a change, a plugged filter, bad seals in the lift cylinders, or a worn control valve or the pump. Check the easy stuff (fluid, filter) first. Good luck on that.
