My short loader bucket has a flat top so I park the loader about 18" off the ground and use the loader bucket as two steps. The tank is up front on the 4020. When I have the other bucket on, I park the loader so the arms on the side are level and climb up on top the front tire on the left side using the hub as the first step (11.00-16 four rib tires).

By being notill, that was enough to plant and spray all summer.
