Check out the size of the bucket on this EX1200. Is it very light material?!

Ridiculous, looks like a loading shovel bucket but its far too heavy you cant even load it up without the machine tipping up! We help move a 1200 and the normal digging bucket weighs 8 tonnes empty!

Unusual set-up with the Komatsu. 10yd bucket yet 1-pass loading the trailers to maybe 1/3 full - would be interesting to know how two buckets of 6 or 7yd would better fill the trucks. Would this be lower cost per ton?

Looks like they are getting through some material!
