What happens here

Many modern excavators feature a hydraulic bucket release system, often activated by a button on the right-hand joystick console. Pressing this button will unlock the attachment, allowing the operator to quickly and easily change between different implements (such as switching from a digging bucket to a hydraulic hammer or grapple) without needing to manually remove pins or leave the cab.
