We all agree Bucke-T-Driver is far safer than trying to level your loader bucket out and slamming tee-post into the ground while a worker-helper is holding on to the tee-post for dear life. With the Bucke-T-Driver equipment movement must stop before worker-helper moves up to swing out the Bucke-T-Barrel and inserts a tee-post. Your worker-helper moves back to safety and direct the loader operator to press the tee-post into the soft ground. All these procedures and other similar procedures are practiced by US Industry and do prevent accidents.
In no way are we liable for the way you choose to operate our equipment.
