Skid steer loader giant Bobcat unveils new range of combination buckets.
A new family of combination buckets is now available for Bobcat skid-steer, compact tracked and all-wheel steer loaders. Comprising five models with widths from 157 to 213 cm (62 to 84 in), the new combination buckets replace the buckets previously offered in these sizes and complement the existing 112 cm (44 in) and 140 cm (55 in) wide buckets.
Designed for diverse applications in construction, landscaping, demolition and recycling, the combination bucket is a versatile tool acting as several attachments in one. Used as a normal bucket, the combination bucket digs, carries, loads and dumps material. However, the clamshell section of the bucket can be opened and closed over material to fill the bucket, a feature especially useful for clean-up work. Moreover, the clamshell can be opened to release the material without having to tip the bucket forward, an important advantage when unloading into high board trucks.
