“Is this a Tiltrotator?”
For around $9-12K, this is not a direct replacement for a dedicated quick coupler $40k+ tiltrotator system. It’s a fast ROI, budget alternative, made in the USA. The bucket bolts onto the rotational drive and trunnion tilt head, so you can instead bolt on a leveling bar, grading beam, roller packer, or other bucket sizes if you so choose. The top is also modular, so if you switch machines, you can swap tops to fit. It uses hoses and couplers to hook up to the hoses on your boom, very simple, just like any other hydraulic attachment.
“Can I bolt on a Grapple?”
Our Hydra Grapple does not use the same rotational drive as this attachment. This tilt/rotate bucket uses an industry standard worm gear drive, while our grapple uses an ultra high torque slewing bearing rotational drive that is unnecessary for a bucket. The Hydra Grapple will not bolt onto this system, they are separate and equally useful attachments for a reason.
This attachment is 1/4 the cost of a tiltrotator system. It has no custom joysticks, no computers, no quick couplers, and no B.S. If you want those things, then this isn’t the attachment for you. But it’ll tilt and rotate with the industry’s shortest height from stick pin to bucket top, giving you more maneuverability and breakout force. Ditching, shaping, grading, shorelines, trail building– the CMP Tilt/Rotate Bucket can do it.
