</font><font color="blue" class="small">( You guys have got me wanting to buy another attachment. I have a 60" bucket but no toothbar. What type work do you do that requres a toothbar? )</font>
The toothbar increases the effectiveness of the loader by a lot. Going into a pile of compressed dirt, it is often a chore to get the dirt broken up enough to get a full load. The TB breaks it up and also helps in getting more in the bucket.
If you've ever raked up a large pile of vines, straw and leaves and then tried to pick it up with a plain bucket edge, you will know that it often just pushes off the front of the bucket. With a TB on, the teeth will grab that pile and help it into the bucket, most often without having to get off the tractor at all.
When digging small saplings, the teet can get down and under the small roots whereas the plain bucket edge usually can't.
I think it's the best low-cost implement I've added to my tractor. John
