In excavation operations, the bucket teeth are the most heavily loaded components and are consumable parts. Especially in stone excavation work, the bucket teeth wear out very quickly. The condition of the bucket teeth directly affects the working efficiency of the excavator. Some incorrect operations will accelerate the wear and fracture of the bucket teeth. Today I will share with you some precautions when using the bucket for your reference. In excavation operations, the bucket teeth are the most heavily loaded components and are consumable parts.

1 things to note
Try not to retract the bucket when lifting the boom. If you retract the bucket, the bucket teeth will be subject to upward traction and damage the bucket teeth. When the big arm is lowered and the forearm is raised outward with too much force, the bucket will hit the stone, which may easily damage the bucket teeth and even the forearm.
The bucket teeth should be perpendicular to the working surface when digging, or the camber angle should be less than 120 degrees to prevent the bucket teeth from breaking due to excessive inclination.
Do not use the collision force of the bucket side wall to move objects or the rotation force to move large objects. When the bucket collides with the rock, the bucket, arm and working device will generate a large load, seriously affecting the service life of the excavator.
Use the big arm or small arm to drive the bucket, and quickly drop it to impact the excavation, especially if it acts on hard rocks. The huge impact force will react on the entire working device and pin of the excavator. It may cause a certain amount of wear and tear, and in severe cases, the working arm may crack or break.
Try to avoid direct contact with objects on the back of the bucket, and cooperate with the forearm retrieval action when digging hard objects.
During construction, if there are large objects such as earth or stones in front of you, do not push the stones aside with a rotational movement. If things go on like this, the side blades, forearm and swing motor drive teeth will be damaged.
Do not frequently use the traveling motor to drive the bucket. Doing so will cause the bucket and bucket teeth to wear due to the huge external force exerted by the traveling motor.
2 Daily inspection of bucket
Check the bucket for wear and cracks. If the wear is severe, reinforcement should be considered. If there are cracks in the bucket, they should be welded and repaired in time to avoid increasing the length of the cracks due to delayed repairs.
You can kick the bucket teeth with your feet to check whether the bucket teeth are stable. If they are loose, tighten them immediately.
