I have never seen such a small side loader bucket in Norway.
In contrast, we have many of these off a slightly larger version
I drove one of these myself side loader bucket on a Volvo L350
In tunnel loading.

some stress on those ram mounts where they are :oops:
If the bucket is properly down on the stops when ramming into the pile there’s no stress. When it’s tipping sideways there’s not a lot as the pivot is quite near the middle. I’ve only seen these buckets on the railways over here, on 941’s and 951’s. Cat make them to fit skid steers, compact tracked loaders and compact wheeled loaders.

long way from the middle on this one though Bri .... fair lift for the ram from the closed position on this one .... obviously works, but that is some push .. aren't hydraulics wonderful :)

Farm next to me had a steel shed fire recently. Up against the road so I see it every day. Currently being stripped. That was only a bit of hay, and it’s bent all the roof steels .. surprising.
doesn't take much of a fire to distort UB,s TBH ..... surprising how hot a hay fire gets

Am I right in saying even if you pay Amazon prime subscription they still make you watch ads in the middle of films 😶
Basic subscription now has ads.
They very kindly allow you to pay another £2/mth to remove the ads. :mad:
