either the John Deere Fanggs
®
or the ESCO (Helilok) Standard tooth. Replaceable cutting edges are available through John Deere parts. Optional side cutters add 6 inches (150 mm) to bucket widths.

*Contact your John Deere dealer for optimum bucket and attachment selections. These recommendations are for general conditions and average use. Larger buckets may be possible when using
light buckets; and for flat and level operations, less compacted materials, and volume loading applications such as mass excavation in ideal conditions. Smaller buckets are recommended for
adverse conditions such as off-level applications and uneven surfaces. Bucket capacity indicated is SAE heaped.
