If the bucket is used as they were intended, to move light debris, cleanup at a job site, or move sand or other light material.
Telehandler's are not intended or designed to replace a track loader, motorgrader or bulldozer.
I have seen the buckets used as a work platform and used like an excavator, both of which are a definate no-no!
Unless you have operators who can use discretion as to the proper use of a bucket, you might not want to consider it. Just my 2 cents

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
