To determine overall bucket length:
1.
Stretch out the bucket on the ground, keeping the suspension lines taut.
2.
Measure the distance from the shackle on the head to the bottom of the shell. This measurement
should be less than the maximum total length of the dimension taken from the helicopter.
Important Note
To avoid potential rotor strikes when using the Bambi MAX, the operator must measure the
extended length of the Bambi MAX and the distance from the belly hook to the closest possible
point of the tail rotor.
A) Always measure the overall extended length of your Bambi MAX
and
B) Measure the distance from the belly hook to the closest possible point on the tail rotor.
"B" must always exceed "A" by at least six (6) inches.
