Simple Step Makes Skidsteer Climb Easier
Chuck Virtue finds it easier to get into his skidsteer since he added a step about a year ago.
    He bent a rod to make about a 12-in. step and welded washers on top that slip over the ends of a rod that fits inside the step on the top of his skidsteer’s bucket. A hairpin cotter pin holds it in place, and makes it easy to remove the step if necessary.
    So far the step hasn’t gotten in the way of using the bucket, Virtue says.
    “I leave it on all the time,” he says. “I’m almost 70, and it’s hard to get up without the step. Plus, it’s safer too, so I don’t slip.”
