HLA Attachments SS72BO500 Hydraulic Side-Discharge Bucket combines a 72-inch inside width, 1-7/8-cubic-yard heaped capacity, and a hydraulically powered 12-inch chevron belt for controlled material discharge from either side of the machine. Designed as a side-discharge sawdust and material bucket, this configuration pairs the HLA SS72 base bucket with the BO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach mount. A direct-coupled hydraulic drive, two discharge-belt motors, and a hydraulically driven beater provide dependable material movement while helping prevent bridging inside the bucket.
The SS72 allows material to be discharged from either side of the machine, providing flexibility when placing or distributing material. Its 12-inch-wide chevron belt helps carry material across the bucket, while two hydraulic motors power the discharge belt. This arrangement is suited to jobs where side placement is more practical than dumping directly in front of the loader.
A hydraulically driven beater helps prevent material from bridging and supports a more consistent feed onto the discharge belt. The belt uses a hydraulic direct-coupled drive, reducing the need for a separate mechanical drive arrangement. The bucket requires a minimum hydraulic flow of 12 GPM.
This model is supplied in the SS72BO500 configuration. It consists of the SS72 base bucket fitted with HLA’s BO500 bolt-on universal skid-steer quick-attach adaptation. The mount is intended for universal skid-steer quick-attach carriers and loaders using an HLA-listed skid-steer-style quick-attach interface.
The HLA SS72BO500 requires a hydraulic system capable of supplying at least 12 GPM. Confirm that the carrier provides the required hydraulic flow and an appropriate auxiliary hydraulic connection before installation. Optional hose kits with flat-faced couplers are available but are not specified as standard equipment.
Carrier compatibility should be confirmed using the quick-attach interface, hydraulic flow requirement, bucket dimensions, and operating weight.
