I have two things I'm currently trying to decide on.
I have a KX121-3ST with the qc and thumb and am wondering how well it can manage a 36" bucket. USA Attachments has a 36" bucket with a .15/.22 cu yard capacity. My current job is loading out trucks with dirt cut from a house pad.
I haven't decided which would be better, the TL250 track loader or the ex for loading the trucks from the stockpile. The ex could load off a bench. I'm guessing we have 1-1.5k yards to haul out, although that might grow. Loading into tandems... I'm nearly positive the TL250 would have to load from both sides due to the reach. A high dump bucket would be another choice, but that's more than I want to spend for this job.
Any helpful theories/opinions?
