GENERAL INFORMATION

Bucket Types

1 - LP - Low profile

The low-profile bucket has a shorter back and is lon-

ger from bucket heel to cutting edge for optimum cut-

ting edge visibility. This is important for finish grading

and accurate cut and fill jobs.

2 - D & F - Dirt and foundry

The dirt and foundry bucket is shorter from bucket

heel to cutting edge to provide maximum breakout

force for tough digging conditions.

3 - M & F - Manure and fertilizer (slurry)

The manure and slurry bucket is for handling loose or

fluid materials with more rollback to minimize spillage.

4 - LM - Light material

The light-material bucket is for light, high- volume ma-

terials for more productivity handling light material.

Select bucket styles and sizes to provide both ade-

quate breakout force and reasonable carrying capac-

ity. Handle dense materials with a relatively small

bucket. Handle lighter materials with higher capacity

buckets. Refer to the following bucket capacity chart

and the material weight chart in the operator's manual

when choosing the bucket for a job.
