Triple Bucket does Three Jobs at Once TRACTORS Accessories 14-5-22 New "open jaw" triple loader bucket is actually three buckets in one. When closed it looks and works like a standard loader bucket. When the upper half of the bucket is hinged all the way up, the teeth on the bottom half of bucket can be used as a manure or hay fork. To grab onto loose hay, silage or other bulky cargos, the top half hinges downward to work like a grab fork.
Designed by English farmer Stephen Wilman, the 3-way bucket fits any front-end loader. "Without leaving the cab, you can handle any farm material including silage, bales, brewers grains, feed concentrates, manure or slurry, dirt, gravel, and so on. It's the most valuable tool on my farm," Wilman told FARM SHOW. He licensed the idea to Portec Ltd., a large manufacturer that hopes to sell the bucket in the U.S. and Canada through its parent company.
It's available in four sizes ranging from 5 ft. wide up to 7 ft. wide. Prices range from about $2,000 to $4,000.
