These buckets when installed could free up more load capacity, enabling it to handle both larger and heavier objects. The Quick-Tach can dump materials approximately 1.5 feet higher because of the shorter depth of its bucket. These buckets are fabricated in a customized fashion to be able to suit all the specifications of certain makes and models of lifts. It is important to check with a construction equipment specialist in order to find the customized Quick-Tach bucket solution for all of your requirements.
