Working with Buckets

Buckets are mainly used for digging, loosening,
lifting, transporting and loading loose or solid
materials.
Read the "Safety" section in this manual,
starting on page 15, before working with a
bucket. Pay special attention to the "During
Operation" information, starting on page 17.
Always follow the information included in the
"Safety" section. Serious injury or death can
occur if the safety information is not followed.
Make sure the bucket is securely attached to the
hitch before starting work. See "Connecting
Attachments" on page 83.

Digging Tips

When completing a digging task:
• When digging in a pit, exit the pit outside the dig-
ging line, through an area as level as possible.
• If possible, dig by removing adjacent strips.
• Drive forward when transporting a full bucket
out of the digging area.
• Drive in reverse when transporting a full bucket
down a steep slope.
