10 Handling the bucket
102
Weight of material handled:
The bucket loading capacity (or SAE volume) allows calculating the weight of material hand-
led in the bucket (in case of full buckets) and it takes into account the extra weight caused by
the dome piling of certain materials.To determine the weight of materials handled, make the
following calculation:
Weight of materials (kg) = Load Capacity (L) x Density
Materials Density
Sand
1,64
Clay
1,7
Mud
1,8
Gravel
1,5
The density of the materials has a great in-
fluence on the weight of the load handled.The
opposite table specifies the density of the
most commonly handled materials.
10.2 Compatible accessories
• These accessories are given for 1.8 density materials with a full bucket forming a dome in
accordance with ISO standard 7451. For particular operations or with materials of different
densities (partial bucket filling due to fluid products such as mud) larger buckets may be
used.
•
In this case it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the machine stability limit
is
not exceeded. The machine could tip over, which could cause serious physical injuries and ex-
tensive material damage.

• Do not use accessories that are not listed in this chapter. The user must ensure that the ac-
cessory is compatible with the capabilities of the machine and the task at hand. If in doubt,
contact the accessory manufacturer or dealer.
