Self-Dump Bucket
The Self-Dump Bucket is perfect for anyone who wants to
load loose materials and owns a forklift but doesn’t own a
loader. Installation is quick and easy. The bucket simply slips
on the forks – no hydraulics - no modifications to the forklift.

The ¼, ½ or ¾ yd3. capacity is an ideal size for the masonry supply, landscape supply or anyone that wants to load small quantities of sand, top soil, mulch, landscape materials, etc. It is also great for clean-up work around an equipment or supply yard.


Operation is simple, after disengaging the safety lock the bucket can be tripped with the handle at the back of the bucket or from the operator’s seat with the remote rope release. Lowering the bucket to the ground resets the bucket for the next load.

Heavy duty construction and a dependable trip mechanism ensures long trouble-free life. An affordable low cost makes this bucket easy to justify even for the occasional user.
