thats nothing to do with the hydraulics its just the way the game mechanic works and how the engine works and pysics and other really dumb stuff with logs i personally found to grab the smaller logs you gotta tilt your loader to the point where your graple is basically stabing the ground then use left shift m and k to open and close it

If you're using the vanilla one, there's a modded log fork (in game mod page) that is way better imo. Test it out if you haven't.

Hit boxes are a bit better, but it still has the same problem with force, see Rex's comment. I've found that tightening the grip and loosening it a few times can help; After grabbing several logs that are keeping it from closing fully, I loosen the grip in small increments until I see a reaction in the logs, and then I tighten it a bit again. This can make logs "pop" into the log fork instead of just losing them.
