How to Order Elevator Buckets

Step 1. Measure Your Elevator Bucket

Most manufacturers identify part sizes by molding dimensions into the bottom of the elevator bucket.

Length. The bucket length is measured at the back mounting surface. Lay the bucket on its back for actual measurement dimensions.

Projection. Projection is measured vertically to the lip, as it would project from the belt or chain.

Depth. Depth is measured for the overall side profile dimension.
