AMI Side Dump Bucket for Wheel Loaders
Increase Productivity with Precise Side Dumping
The AMI Side Dump Bucket is engineered to improve efficiency and safety when handling material in confined areas such as highway construction sites, trenches, roadways, and utility projects. Unlike a conventional loader bucket, the Side Dump Bucket allows operators to discharge material to the side of the machine without repositioning, making it ideal for working alongside traffic lanes, barriers, and excavations.
Designed for wheel loaders, the AMI Side Dump Bucket features a smooth side-pivoting action controlled by a cushioning hydraulic cylinder that slows bucket movement at both ends of the dumping cycle. An automatic locking mechanism secures the non-pivoting side during standard bucket operation, allowing the bucket to fill and dump like a conventional bucket until side dumping is required.
Ideal Applications
The AMI Side Dump Bucket is perfect for:
- Highway construction
- Road widening
- Utility trench backfilling
- Pipeline installation
- Road shoulder maintenance
- Municipal construction
- Aggregate placement
- Confined job sites
- Material stockpiling
- General construction
Its side-dump capability allows operators to place material precisely where needed while keeping the loader safely positioned away from traffic or trench edges.
Smooth, Controlled Side Dumping
The AMI Side Dump Bucket pivots using a hydraulically controlled cushioning cylinder that provides:
- Smooth bucket rotation
- Reduced impact at the end of travel
- Improved operator control
- Reduced wear on bucket components
- Accurate material placement
The cushioning cylinder slows movement at both ends of the stroke, creating controlled dumping even when handling heavy materials.
Automatic Bucket Lock
During normal loading and dumping operations, an integrated auto-lock mechanism secures the non-pivoting side of the bucket.
Benefits include:
- Operates like a conventional loader bucket
- Prevents unwanted side movement
- Improved digging performance
- Increased operator confidence
- Simple transition between standard dumping and side dumping
This unique system provides the versatility of two buckets in one attachment.
Heavy-Duty Construction
AMI manufactures the Side Dump Bucket for demanding commercial applications.
Features include:
- Heavy-duty steel construction
- Reinforced pivot system
- Hydraulic cushioning cylinder
- Automatic locking mechanism
- High-capacity bucket design
- Built for daily contractor and municipal use
Designed to withstand continuous operation in harsh construction environments, the Side Dump Bucket delivers years of dependable service.
