What happens here

The narrator encounters a significant problem when trying to attach the newly unboxed Raptor Attachments snow bucket to the Bobcat S185 skid steer. The top pins latch correctly, but the bottom pins, which are essential for securely locking the bucket in place, fail to engage. He investigates the bucket's attachment points and discovers that the bottom lip of the bucket is either bent or manufactured too high, preventing it from sitting flush against the skid steer's Quick Tach system. This renders the new bucket unusable without modification.

Goal: Identify why the new snow bucket cannot be properly attached to the skid steer.

filled it up so it at least oh that's pretty good because that was supposed to treat 250 gallons and that was a 40 gallon bulk tank yeah and there was about a quarter left so there's enough for about 40 gallons so yeah you got 36 or whatever perfect whenever I put in there yep all right see you Zach I've been working around the clock taking two to three hour breaks here and there but what happens is night turns into day and day turns in tonight and you just start to not even register the differences except this time I'm actually working in my own backyard around my own neighbors and it's not registering that it's getting later and darker and darker and later until one of them lets me know [Music] foreign [Music] should be a simple easy connect that I've done a thousand other times but something is wrong and something is definitely off about this thing and I'm having a difficult time seeing through my windshield so I'm going to clean that up before I take it for sometimes you miss it right there that's why I can't connect buggered in between here our snow impacted on here and boom well maybe that was good there's some ice too bad I don't know maybe that wasn't it I don't know see if you can't get her to hook for some reason it's not climbing up tight [Music] mm-hmm [Music] so it became pretty apparent after a while of struggling with it that can get the top to connect in but I can't secure the bucket so the top the bottom pins
