10HorseMan Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 I was looking at a johnny bucket to go on one of my two B-110's. How well to the tractors take the buckets. Do you like to use them. Or do i need to stick to the trailer and shovel. This may be what I need because I have broke two sets of wheels on utility trailers hauling dirt [:0]:(!
Rob-B Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 I do believe Maynard has one on one of his, might want to check with him. Rob
ReedS Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 I have one on a 2110 and I find it to be one of the best attachments that I have. The only thing better would be a loader. Having the hydro-lift is a big plus as well as I can just about lift the front tires off of the ground. One small disadvantage that I have seen is that there is no way to curl the bucket when scooping........... Don't forget Ag tires and plenty of weights for traction!;)
UCD Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Read this artical by Kent. It is the Johnny Bucket SN# 001 that I now have on the HB-116 [url]http://www.simpletractors.com/operation/johnny_bucket_jr_.htm[/url]
thedaddycat Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 Actually, that's the first one produced for Simplicity or AC tractors and was the prototype. I have the first one serialized, that one is the only one that predates serial numbers for this series of JBJrs......
10HorseMan Posted December 4, 2004 Author Posted December 4, 2004 Thanks Maynard, i read the article. Kent must really like his. Do any of you all have the new ''Power Dump'' Do i still need a shovel to fill the bucket up or do i just need to drive and dump
Bunky Posted December 4, 2004 Posted December 4, 2004 I use my version of the johnny bucket on my B112 once in a while it works good because it has hydraulic lift It depends on the material's you working with but for Sand stone and manure I just drive in scoop and then go dump...
10HorseMan Posted December 4, 2004 Author Posted December 4, 2004 Oh if my 110's are tied up can i put it on my 410s.
