John Deere Worksite Pro CB72 Construction Bucket🔵 Mid
✓ No hydraulics required
View on brandt.ca →
Overview
The CB72 is one of the most popular heavy-duty buckets in the Worksite Pro lineup — 72 inches wide at 475 lb, it's right-sized for full-frame skid steers doing serious construction work. The low back plate improves operator visibility when working close to grade or in tight spaces, and the rounded interior moves material cleanly through fill and dump cycles without hangups. Pre-drilled for a bolt-on cutting edge or tooth bar so you can spec it for the job. Standard choice for earthmoving contractors, site prep crews, and utility operators running larger machines.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You break and move rock, frozen ground, or heavy demolition debris regularly
- You need a bolt-on cutting edge that's replaceable when worn
⛔ Skip if…
- Your work is mostly topsoil, gravel, and light debris — a GP bucket is lighter and faster
- You need a wider bucket — rock buckets max out around 84 inches for most machines
🔍 Also consider…
- GP bucket for general-purpose daily work
- Skeleton (rock sieve) bucket if you need to separate fines from rock
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all skid steer brands via universal SSQA quick attach. No auxiliary hydraulics required — operates off the loader arms.

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
