RSBM A 4-in-1 bucket, also referred to as a multipurpose bucket, is considered one of the most versatile attachments available today. 4-in-1 buckets are available to fit on skid steers and excavator,They’re perfect for use on construction sites where workers perform many tasks but may not want to own multiple buckets designed for specific jobs. Appropriately named because it can perform the four functions of digging, scooping, dumping and bulldozing, it can also operate as a clamp used for moving large rocks, logs and tree trunks and a leveler for dirt or gravel.
For Skid steers, we have 60in/66in/72in/84in for you to choose
We also have 4 in 1 bucket with teeth
For excavator, our factory make the connection size according to your machine to fit with your machine;
HOW TO USE THE SKID STEER MULTI-PURPOSE BUCKET
Because the 4-in-1 bucket is so versatile, let’s walk through how it can be utilized while in both the closed and open position.
CLOSED POSITION
When closed, the 4-in-1 skid steer bucket operates like a standard bucket, with the added advantage of being able to dump at maximum height. This is due to the bucket’s ability to open at the bottom to spill out material (something that cannot be accomplished with a standard bucket). This “bottom dumping” capability allows the attachment to function as a high-dump bucket, as well. Operators can also spread dirt by opening the bottom of the bucket while grading/moving.
OPEN POSITION
When opened, the back of the bucket can serve as a dozer. The clam-style design allows the 4-in-1 bucket to function as a grapple, picking up materials that couldn’t be handled with a standard bucket. The open position can be also used to quickly clean up or “pinch” the last of any dirt piles instead of shoveling.
Here are a few considerations when purchasing a 4-in-1 bucket.
Capacity
One of the significant issues you may encounter is a piece of equipment that does not perform as expected. This mismatch creates problems with your workforce, such as downtime or fatigue when recovering the lost time. You may also load the equipment beyond its capacity, increasing the risk of damage and accidents. However, how do you know the suitable 4-in-1 bucket for your project?
Every project has a planning phase where your engineer or project manager tells you how deep and wide to dig. You can estimate the amount of earth to move and get a bucket that fits such a task. For example, small 4-in-1 buckets are ideal for minor tasks such as landscaping and gardening in your backyard. However, you may obtain a larger bucket to increase your team’s speed.
Design
Can you perform more than four tasks using a 4-in-1 bucket? Well, the number of tasks you can accomplish simultaneously depends on the design of the 4-in-1 bucket. For example, you can purchase a bucket with accommodations for installing teeth on one of the cutting edges. Therefore, such a bucket grabs things but still digs and pulls out items from the ground with its teeth.
You may also examine whether the bucket’s design promotes safe usage. For example, ensure the floor is strong enough to prevent failure when heavily loaded. The bucket should also have tie-down points that help you harness it when transporting. In addition, your bucket’s load guard should allow the operator to see in front. You may purchase a bucket and customise it or buy one with these features already.
Efficiency
The bucket’s efficiency depends on several factors. For example, the hydraulic system should handle different swing angles when operating the bucket at full capacity. The higher you lift items, the more pressure you exert on the hydraulic hoses, pumps and other things. Ideally, the bucket should operate for long hours without causing delays due to fear of failed systems or accidents.
You may also consider how wide the bucket opens. The opening angle determines the amount of material your bucket can grab at a time. A slight opening angle might have you working many hours on a task that would take a few hours. The efficiency of your 4-in-1 bucket directly impacts the cost of the project. Hence, thoroughly evaluate the bucket before you buy.
