In the past, small farm tractors did not have multi-purpose buckets. They were made with one or two buckets, with the larger tractors getting the full-range of bucket action. However, times have changed, and auto manufacturers concerned with the creation of farm equipment have made it possible for the smaller farm tractors to have these additions. A 4 in 1 bucket will be an amazing addition to your farm because it will give you the following benefits.

Scooping

The main reason why a bucket is attached to any earthmover is to give it the ability to scoop dirt and move it from one location to the other. When the bucket is closed, it performs the scooping function just like any regular earthmover bucket. This function comes in handy when you are trying to clear parts of your garden and shift mulch from one part of the farm to the other. When using the bucket to scoop, make sure that you do not extend the given load limit.

Levelling

The second function that your small farm tractor will help you perform, with the right add-ons, is levelling. When you open the bucket, you expose blades with the ability to cut through weeds and scrape gravel off the ground. This is a function which only works when you have the tractor in reverse. The tractor has settings which help you determine how deep you want the levelling to go.

Grading and Pushing

When the bucket is also open, the front jaw has a cutting edge which faces the front side of the bucket. You have to drive the bucket to use this function. Note that this is not an earthmover, and the grading function will not be as strong as it is in an earth mover.

Grabbing

Another common function of small agricultural equipment is the ability to move material from one point to the other. When the bucket is opened, the parts can grab objects such as leaves and tree stumps, which really makes your life easier.

The four-in-one bucket is amazing and versatile because, in addition to all these functions, you can also remove it altogether. The important thing to remember when buying and handling this farm appliance is that it is meant to handle lighter tasks than the ordinary earthmover. Therefore, you need to avoid overworking it and always make sure that all parts are properly maintained and repaired at all times.
