Section 2: Deploying the Bucket
Attaching to the Cargo Hook
Correct attachment of the head is indicated when the ballast on the bucket faces forward in fligh
t which
will avoid twisting of the suspension lines
. If using a swivel hook, it is recommended to operate in
the locked position to assure that the ballast is always facing forward in flight.
The Bambi MAX Bucket is rigged for a longitudinal cargo
hook. The top shackle on the head acts as the secondary ring
for the cargo hook. The operator must supply a primary ring
in accordance with the cargo hook manufacturer’s
recommendations.
If the helicopter has a lateral cargo hook, an additional ring
or shackle will be required between the top shackle and the
primary ring to rotate the bucket 90°.
WARNING
Ensure that all rings and shackles are rated with a minimum safety factor of five for the gross weight of
the bucket as shown on the data plate.
CAUTION
The Bambi MAX Bucket may not be suitable for a direct hook-up to the cargo hook. The actual hook-
up will be different for various aircraft and operators must comply with all instructions and bulletins
supplied by the aircraft manufacturer. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that the Bambi MAX
is correctly fitted to the helicopter.
