Maximum Material Density At Capacity - Toro TX 1000 Operator's Manual

Maximum Material Density at
Capacity
The density of the materials moved by the bucket
varies and, therefore, so does the amount of material
that the bucket can carry before reaching the
maximum load rating. The tables in
(page 18) list the density of material that can be
carried, both heaped and struck (i.e., leveled off), in
the bucket. The table below lists common materials
and their densities.
To move the materials with densities greater than the
maximum allowed for the bucket, reduce the volume
of the material placed in the bucket.
