Rhinox Excavator Attachments - Tine Spacings
The spaces between tines on Excavator Attachments like Land Rakes or Riddle Buckets, can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. This is a question we regularly get asked from customers as the tine spacings will determine how thoroughly your attachment will filter and sort materials.
Rhinox manufacture 3 similar attachments, with varying tine widths, the Land Rake, Skeleton Bucket and Rake Riddle Bucket - so this post will summarise the attachments, the tine widths and best uses.
