The tilt bucket has been a good investment thus far but I need more time using it before giving my final 100% endorsement. My next projects are all trails, driveway, dirt moving where I will need the tilt bucket so that should give me the opportunity to really show it working in action and give some pros and cons. Let me know if you have initial questions about it, and rest assured, more videos on the tilting bucket is on the way.
Thoroughly enjoy your videos. We too have a new 75-3 and are going through a similar learning curve (loving every minute). Never really considered a tilt attachment for the bucket until seeing your experiences with it. Looks like my attachment list just got longer. Appreciate the content as always!
There are about 4 or 5 different manufactures. Several also have a hydraulic switch, like a tractor 3rd function. If you were putting a hydraulic pallet fork on the TH35 you would need to find a 3rd party 3rd function kit. Some of the manufactures sell it as an option but Land Pride does not. Land Pride does have an option for a check valve that helps keep the angle set against the pressure of pushing the bucket into the ground. It's a $350.00 option and thus far I haven't noticed that I need it. I am changing the angle so often that I haven't tested to see if it actually drifts off the setting I had it at. I think if you are doing grading it will be helpful for us rookies. Experts, maybe not quite as much, but in tight spaces it's amazing to do grading and stump digging with the bucket. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for watching
Also, I am told to really get good (perfect?) grading you need a smooth (no teeth) bucket. And if the bottom were longer you could see it from the operators seat which would make grading easier.... I'm not at the point I need perfect or even close to perfect, but maybe in a year when we build our house.
