Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 1000mm sieve bucket used for on a 1.7t excavator?
A 1000mm sieve bucket, also known as a skeleton bucket, is designed for sorting and separating materials such as soil, rocks, and debris. When attached to a 1.7-tonne excavator, it's ideal for landscaping, site clean-up, and preparing ground for turf or paving. The bucket's design allows finer materials to fall through while retaining larger debris, making it efficient for material separation tasks.
Is the 1000mm sieve bucket compatible with my 1.7t excavator model?
Our 1000mm sieve buckets are compatible with most 1.7-tonne mini excavators, including popular models like the Kubota U17-3. However, compatibility can vary based on the specific hitch and coupling system of your excavator. It's recommended to check the attachment specifications or consult with the hire company to ensure a proper fit.
Can I hire the 1000mm sieve bucket separately or only with an excavator?
Yes, the 1000mm sieve bucket can typically be hired separately if you already have a compatible 1.7t excavator. However, many hire companies also offer package deals that include both the excavator and the sieve bucket. It's best to check with your local equipment hire provider for availability and pricing options.
