Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You move high-volume, low-density material: mulch, wood chips, snow, or loose compost
- You want more cubic yards per pass without exceeding your machine's weight limit
⛔ Skip if…
- Your material is heavy (gravel, soil, rock) — the thin bucket walls will wear fast
- You need a bucket that doubles for digging or grading
🔍 Also consider…
- GP bucket if you split time between light and heavy material
- Snow pusher if snow moving is your primary winter task
🔧 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
