yes it is, would be lost without it so handy! (y)You could easily never need it if you had never had one but my god im lost without it after using it:LOL:things like tilting it right over to the chips run out in a nice stream(y)lovely shape of bucket that is just not very well made(n)

What do you like about the shape of the bucket, would you still like it if you didn't have the tilting hitch?

it doesn't really do anything special its just a good sized bucket (big) stuff doesn't seem to stick, its also good for taking top soil/grass off. It just does every a grading bucket would that bit better(y)only thing is we have to have another bucket on the low loader for cleaning ditches:facepalm:would still have one even without the tilty hitch but don't see why you would get one without, unless it was to go under a tiltrotator:sneaky:(y)

Are you mistaking the BOO for BW, it’s just the way their logo is? I thought it looked like a bucket warehouse job, and when you said it wasn’t the best built, I did wonder...:rolleyes:
we thought it said 'boo' but its possible its 'bw' its just one of that silly stick on plates:rolleyes:by not build the best all the tilty bit has gone slack even though its greased daily like the quick hitch is:facepalm:bent the cutting edge/bottom a bit and its that soft it straightened on the corner of the blade(n)

Had a 1ft once came with a digger,bent it quite easy ,whites are a good bucket ,i use keen buckets as they are local well made stuff.
I ordered a quick hitch from whites for a case digger i owned.it never fitted the front case bucket.after 3attempts i gave up as a bad job.as for keen attachments i spoke with andrew on facebook regarding buckets.i phoned him 2/3 times a day fir a week and he never once returned a call.it was for a full set of buckets,probably £7/800 worth.i eventually went elsewhere.why people praise him up i dont know.id never contact him again

Do you sit in the tractor with that? Cant turn seat around in the Sekura cab can you?
I sit on the bit of box section that the back window closes to and the back window is my roof. I have a seat for the digger but it doesn't fit with the Sekura cab. A pre Q cab industrial 996 with a loader is on the wish list

Interesting to see that it has a quick hitch, you’d not normally see that size of excavator with any sort of quick coupler, usually direct mount. I wonder why? I wonder if they have two buckets for it, so no downtime is lost while the ground engaging parts are replaced?

Maybe they have a ripper toe on it, rip a section and then load it
