Since he's not online right now, I'll offer an answer.
Yep. The rod slides back and forth thru the tube. When the end of the rod is even with the top end of the tube, bucket is level when sitting on the ground. That's what drove my comment about using it when rolling the bucket backward to level. You stare at the tube waiting for the rod to appear, then stop curl. Hard to tell how far forward your bucket is tilted without exposing the rod and then adjusting from there. I used that type for several years. You get used to it.
Yup, when the rod is flush with the end of the tube, the bucket is level.
