boom / arm / bucket Explanation: Arm — Also referred to as "dipper," it is the structure that connects the excavator's attachment to the boom. Boom — The primary component of the workgroup that is attached to the house structure via the swing frame. It supports the arm and attachment. Attachment — Any device coupled to the workgroup to complete a prescribed task. The most common attachment for an excavator is a trenching bucket. Other attachments include grading buckets, hydraulic breakers, plate compactors, rotators, augers and a ripper. See ref. (one of many) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-08-21 09:52:52 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Tieflöffel = trenching bucket Reference: http://www.bobcat.com/products/ex/features/glossary.html |
