Contact your John Deere dealer for optimum bucket and attachment selections. These recommendations are for general conditions and average use. Does not include optional
equipment such as thumbs or couplers. Larger buckets may be possible when using light materials, for flat and level operations, less compacted materials, and volume loading
applications such as mass excavation applications in ideal conditions. Smaller buckets are recommended for adverse conditions such as off-level applications, rocks, and uneven
surfaces. Bucket capacity indicated is SAE heaped.
