Kubota KX 41-3v Bucket size

[RonnieM]

Hi, I have just acquired a Kubota 41-3v, it has come with a 9" digging and 36" ditching buckets. I would like to get another bucket for digging and was looking at 18" or 24" buckets with teeth, I would be mostly working in hard gravel. would the 24" bucket be to big for this machine?
Thanks,
Ronnie.

Both are standard for that size machine. I’d get both, but if you can only have one then 24” as this is the most common footing size plus it will be quicker if bulk digging. If in hard ground a ripper is a great bit of kit too.

Thanks doobin, I was only worried the 24" bucket would be to big. unfortunately I can only afford one.

Ronnie.

Bloody hell, how much did you pay for the machine?

An investment in buckets and attachments is never a bad investment. What sort of work do you do?

Kx41 great little machine, hard working and well built, 24”will be fine.
