Tilt rotators vs tilt buckets are two things you shouldn't even be comparing, for the price factor, and the fact that rotators can make an excavator into a swiss army knife of a machine if you know how to use one, they can be used for grading, forestry, regular digging, pallet work, road work, the list is endless, a tilt buckets is more like a regular bucket than a rotator, and hell I don't even like them that much!

I agree with this!!!

Here in Sweden most excavators over 5 tons (11 000 lbs) have used tilt rotators normally for the last 20 years. Only for really tough conditions, such as for handling large stone blocks, the tilt rotator is removed. Smaller machines might have tilt buckets. But the versatility in movement is just not even close, like comparing a reciprocating saw to a chain saw for cutting down trees. For skilled operators the tilt rotator makes grading, digging ditches and finishing off surfaces so much easier and faster, and with so much smoother result. For me it is puzzling that tilt rotators are not used more in other countries, in particular USA. Still, thank you for yet another interesting video, Stan.

the cost is insane for a tilt rotator over here.I am CDN, the bare Sany sy50 I bought was $95g, after Steelwrist it was $150g. I bought a sy16 for $43g. if I was an hourly hire company I can bill more for a second machine then I can for a tilty. contract work I can do far faster with the SW so it pays for itself.

Tiltrotator winns anyday and i run both tiltbucket and tiltrotator for years. It's maybe 1/10 of the price but the tiltrotator does 20 times more effectively work.

I'm 17 working as a laborer for a heavy equipment company. My boss told me recently that the majority of guys in our industry are aging out, and that there is a major need for young men to fill these positions

Your skill, and their knowledge, almost make that bucket a "must have" for anyone with rudimentary intelligence. A very nice product, and improvement for any small excavator, for a very reasonable price . Thank Stan !

I love to watch your team Stan. Your guys are a good crew. Thanks for sharing.

I liked those guys. They were great reps for their company. I hope half the people at all those trade shows watch this and see how it's done. They had the answers they knew there product inside and out. And you Stan. Mde operating that bucket look easy but I know dang well that was sheer skill and experience. My "ditch" would have looked like the nile river.

I purchased a 36" tilt bucket from Jordan in Feb 2021! It's a nice unit, customer service was great when ordering

I've got that exact bucket for my Bobcat T770, love it, it's a beast for a tilt bucket.

Tilt bucket is really good but if I was buying a new machine I would get a tilt mount and then every attachment you put on is a tilt bucket or tilt attachment. Plus it give you a better break out force and no hoses flopping around to get caught on stuff.. It's a tilting coupler so it pivots at the couple and not at the bucket.. It's way way better

Had a tilt rotator and prefer the tilt bucket great for everything especially when it can be reverse mounted you able to get a lot closer and have no spill in

Tilt buckets are really handy. I'm a trail builder in Colorado, this bucket makes back sloping, drainage rollers, and final grade work so easy.

1st thing I thought was "those hydraulic hoses are begging to get snagged and cut. The Encon is a far more versatile set up. You can swap attachments from the cab. Losing the use of the thumb would be a deal breaker for me. The thumb is so useful.

@notsure6182

you do not need a thumb after you have a tilt rotator (mine is SteelWrist) and get used to using it. at first I missed my thumb when pulling up concrete or asphalt, now once my brain wrapped around what the bucket rotating can do I dont miss it. way less aggression required once you get the hang of the tilty and the weird buckets they use. I put a friend in the machine and pulling up asphalt he was missing his thumb, I just told him to spin the bucket around the slab and grab it from a different angle. he actual said 'woah' when it slid right in the bucket. the Grab is far more useful then a thumb. I can pick up a full coffee cup with the grab, I can pick up a labourers dropped in the way shovel and then gently lean it on the fence out of the way. I am only about 700hrs in to tilt rotator use.

I’ve got a tilt bucket on my 1.8 ton excavator and a job that a 5.5 ton couldn’t do. Between two apartments that are 2.4 meters apart and then separated later with a fence down the middle, I had to prepare the ground to grade away from both buildings towards the centre for concreting. Normally I would use the grader blade to cut any grades but there was not enough room with even my machine and it was done in a day and there were 24 apartments with identical situation. I also graded towards two surface drains in the same area.

We have a PowerTilt on our Bobcat E35 that goes 180°. It's not a tilt rotator but we have been amazed how much added functionality to our machine we get from that one attachment. There are certainly some negatives such as added weight and it also extends the bucket about 12" away from it's connection point on the boom.

😂😂😂the tiltbucket is a fossil and usd for small diggers .tiltrotator ar fir bigger machines 5.5ton.a for the most part. And if you ask my 2 guys on the ground they love my tiltrotator 😍😍saves them a lot of digging with shovels.

When trying to put on fittings under pressure, put the bucket down something raised off the ground and apply a downward force, the Preasure will be released on one side of the hydraulic system, you can then plug in and reverse the pressure to easily answer the other side.

Xboom QC mate clamp is cheap and woks like magic to connect hydraulic quick couplers. Every machine with xoipled attachments should have one in the cab!

When I was landscaping, our 40 had a switch in the cab to go from tilt to thumb. We also called it a wrist bucket.

Stan tell your million-dollar operator he could spend the machine a little and stand on the track and save his knees and he won't be 60 years old like me wondering why his knees are bad from jumping out of the machine in a high height just a tip

Yo Stan have you ever used Brunt boots and are they any good looking for an opinion from someone I can trust’s opinion

Thanks for showing us other options but i still think nothing beats the real thing, tilt rotator.

Hi Stan. Tilt buckets have been around for a long time, but it will never beat a rotortllt in work speed and finish , that new mongo bucket is to short and round in its belly, so its hard to get a good contact with the ground., with a tiltbucket you have two ways to dig, against you and 90 degree seen from the belts. yes ill drive a rotortilt every day and ill never going back =)

Love the videos

Can't find any tiltrotators on their website.

Tilt buck is limited to only using the one bucket. Tilt hitch has 180 degrees of tilt freedom + I can tilt any bucket and my rock grab. Tilt rotator has all the abilities of a tilting hitch and a massive amount of movement and flexibility for any work application and eliminates the need for labour on most jobs. My line of work is golf courses shaping ( bunkers, greens, irrigation and drainage) and landscaping retaining walls. The change to tilt hitch and rotation tilt hitches has saved me 200k

I’m getting this same bucket I have a 36” 5 year old one and it’s about had it I like the looks of this 42 the only gripe I have is the geometry it won’t curl up far enough to load trucks without spilling some .. and the thumb not closing … and the stock hoses are way to long

I use a tiltrotator and haw been for 10years now and I wer Brought up with fast attachments on takers. But along came to till rotator and that one just makes your machine into a swiss You can stay in one spot, you don't have to move.

Also for 40 k you can get a tilt rotator for that a grading bucket a digging bucket a grapple and maybe forks lol

I question the hydraulic hoses hanging out so far. Getting into working around trees or hanging objects around a house would make it difficult .

They're gonna sell a bunch of these buckets. It's handy and at a decent price. I seriously thought it would be $8000 or something crazy.

tilt attacment between the machine and bucket and it does that.

They're 2 different types of equipment a tilt rotor is more universal overall it is more expensive but you'll use it more and they can save loads of time being able to do jobs without moving the digger

He is good. I think I would have pushed a stack to the tree and then set the blade at 2" and drove backwards to level it out to grade.

Not even a comparison, just a plain old ditching bucket lol, turn it around and scoop backwards… doesn’t work? Take it off and grab a different attachment without getting out of the cab… still doesn’t work, at least compare apples to apples

Is this new in the USA? We already had these for over 20 years in Germany

That for the cost is a no brainer. I've always ran different equipment but fixed bucket. You could do all different kinds of work with that. Good deal Stanley!

Import garbage... you don't know they make them in This country?

Try loading a dump truck! The materials fall out of the bucket. The angle of the quick attach is off. At least with the KX bracket.

Pro Tip...Connect the hoses together when you take off the attachment. Pressure will stay equalized for the next hook up.

It’s probably been mentioned but can’t those hydraulic lines be secured? Way to easy to get caught up in trees and brush just hanging out like that.

4000$ on a tilt bucket is a skam! i live in sweden and here get a good tilt bucket is about 1500$ , the pricing in us is just nuts. a tiltrotor here for a 5 ton machine is about 20-25 grand, but the main diffrens is that here like 95% of new machines have them so if the demand is high prices will go down

Your goes are leaving out tilt rotator have oil quick now you can drop the tilt rotator off and hook your bucket on keeping your break out force then you can drop the bucket pick the tilt rotator up and pick up say a grapple and never get out of the cab it's not far to tell people yea they will do what a tilt rotator will do it's false

Tilt buckets are good but they're not a replacement of a tiltrotor

If u watch hedblom u will see why a tilt/rotator should come with every excavator as standard equipment watch them people over sees and u will see why their so far ahead of the usa on equipment. Cuts down on so much labor. For 1 and it cuts down on different equipment because u can just reach over get a broom and sweep on the way out

Too bad they put 10 foot lines and a toy bucket on the thing 🤦🏻‍♂️

When you were diggthe ditch you couldn't rotate the bucket

I really like most of your videos but to compare a tilt bucket to a tilt rotator is like comparing a spoon and a fork. Yes you can scoop with both but only one can stab. Probably one of the dumbest things I have heard you say in the construction industry. Get a tilt rotator and then compare what you can do with the two.

It would be quite fun to see if you could borrow a machine with tilt rotator try it on a job. It’s maybe hard to get hold of that sort of machine. Also feels like another big difference is that you can change the bucket or implement on a tiltrotator compared to the tilt bucket. we have five different attachments to attach to the digger (5.3 ton) for different jobs, and we are a small company, the bigger ones have even more attachments to provide the ultimate tool for the job. Its a huge time saver. If you wanna see a professional (not me) using tiltrotator here: youtube.com/@HedblomSwe It looks really easy
