Section 3: Deploying the Bambi Bucket

Instant Deployment System (IDS)

2012 Bambi Max Operations Manual

(Version A)

6

Shorter Suspension Cables

If the overall length of the Bambi bucket exceeds the distance from the cargo hook to the front tip of the tail
rotor of the helicopter, shorter suspension lines and deployment lines must be used and can be ordered from
SEI. Please specify the model and serial number when ordering parts.

Instant Deployment System (IDS)

The instant deployment system uses a hub and
spoke mechanism to automatically expand the
mouth of the bucket as soon as the weight of the
Bambi MAX is taken up by the suspension ca-
bles.

When the bucket is full, the IDS deployment ca-
ble and hub restrainer cables should be slack as
they should not bear any load.

Their function is to position the hub and spoke
mechanism to hold the bucket open.

Important Note

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 Note

It is recommended that operators, who choose to use the Bambi bucket with a longline, ensure that
the longline is at least 50’ long.

Correct IDS position.
