Abstract
A method of calculating payload material weight is executable by an electronic controller of a machine and includes steps of determining a first force on first front and rear struts of the machine in an unloaded condition of the machine, and adjusting the first force based on at least one of an unloaded front strut friction force and an unloaded rear strut friction force to define an unloaded weight. The method also includes steps of determining a second force on the first front and rear struts in a loaded condition of the machine, and adjusting the second force based on at least one of a loaded front strut friction force and a loaded rear strut friction force to define a loaded weight. A payload material weight is calculated by the method based on a difference between the loaded weight and the unloaded weight.
