3.3. Checking Suspension Cable Length
WARNING: Using a Bambi Bucket with a greater
overall length than the distance from the cargo
hook to the front tip of the tail rotor on your
helicopter could result in a tail rotor strike and
possible loss of control of the helicopter.
Overall length of the Bambi with standard rigging is given
in Table 1. Before using your Bambi Bucket, check for
MAXIMUM TOTAL LENGTH . To determine MAXIMUM
TOTAL LENGTH , measure the distance from the cargo
hook to the front tip of the tail rotor on the helicopter you
will be using and subtract 6" (152 mm). To determine
overall bucket length:
1. Stretch out the Bambi on the ground; secure the control
head. See Fig. 2.
2. Pull out the dump valve fully; pull taut to ensure the
suspension cables are straight.
3. Measure the distance from the shackle on the control
head to the bottom of the dump valve. This measurement
should be less than the
MAXIMUM TOTAL LENGTH
determined above.
3.4 Shortening Suspension Cables
If the overall length of the Bambi exceeds the distance
from the cargo hook to the front tip of tail rotor of the
helicopter, the suspension lines must be shortened.

Note: For Bambi Bucket Models 6578 sold prior to May 2001 the
overall length of the bucket is 31'2". Please specify model and
serial number when ordering parts.
Table 1: Overall lengths with standard rigging.
IMPORTANT: To avoid potential rotor strikes
when using the Bambi Bucket the operator must
measure the extended length of the Bambi
Bucket 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 Bucket.
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.

IMPORTANT: It is recommended that operators
who choose to use the Bambi Bucket with a
longline, ensure the longline is at least 50' long.
