If digging in a sticky soil, it may stick in the bucket instead of dumping out. One solution is to attach a chain to one of the teeth and to a point on the boom. Choose the length so that the chain is slack when digging (and is pushed into the bucket by the dirt, but goes taught when the bucket is in the dump position. The tightening chain will push the soil out of the bucket. (Be careful that the chain does not get trapped in any moving parts.
