Re: what\'s this?
<font color=blue> NOPE! can't be used in place of a fel, can u dig with it? can u lift and move dirt with it? can u back drag with it? the scoop is a nice implement, but won't take the place of a fel. </font color=blue>
Whooee Frank. Good thing I didn't read your post before I went out and dug, moved dirt and back dragged with the scoop on my L210. Or were you kidding?
I won't be putting a FEL on the old girl....would cost more than she's worth. So, until I get a newer tractor I'll have to make do with the scoop for such work.
It was also handy as a carrier for the wood I salvaged from some power line work that was inflicted on my place.
My only complaint with the one I bought, a KingKutter, is that the dump mechanism is pretty stiff and you can't always dump without first setting the bucket down to take the pressure off. That turns out to be no big deal, but I will have to come up with a better place to hang the end of the rope that I pull on. I have the handle just hanging from a bolt on the fender, and with the bucket up the piece of wood dowel I use as a grip can bang on the tire. So, move the bolt dummy!
