Overview
Bobcat's 72-inch 4-in-1 bucket functions as a general purpose bucket, clamshell grapple, dozer blade, and scraper — all in one attachment. The hinged clamshell front opens to grab brush, debris, and loose material, then closes to carry it. Particularly useful for farm operators who want one attachment for multiple tasks rather than swapping throughout the day. Available through Bobcat dealers across Canada.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You want one bucket that can grab, grade, spread, and load without switching attachments
- You do finish grading or move loose material piles on the same site
⛔ Skip if…
- Your priority is capacity and speed — a GP bucket moves more per cycle
- The added weight of the 4-in-1 mechanism pushes you near your machine's ROC limit
🔍 Also consider…
- GP bucket if capacity per cycle is more important than versatility
- Industrial grapple if bulk debris handling is a bigger priority than bucket work
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Designed for Bobcat machines but mounts to any skid steer or CTL with a universal SSQA quick-attach plate.

Care & Maintenance
- Grease the bucket pin and hinge points every 20 hours of use — dry pins wear oval and cause slop in the carrier, which transfers shock to the coupler
- Inspect the cutting edge for wear after work in rock, frozen ground, or hard fill — replace or flip bolt-on edges when worn to 50% of original thickness
- Check coupler latch engagement before every use — a partially latched bucket can release under load
- Clean debris from behind the cutting edge to prevent buildup that warps the edge over time; dried material also traps moisture against bare steel
- Inspect sidewall and base plate welds for cracking after heavy rock or demolition work — cracks spread rapidly if caught late
How to Connect
- Position bucket face-down on ground
- Drive forward into Bob-Tach receiver arms
- Pull both lock handles to engage
- Verify orange indicators show LOCKED
- Test lift 6 inches — do not drive until confirmed locked
⚠ Safety NoteBob-Tach / Bob-Lock verification is critical — look for orange indicator pins fully engaged
