Abstract
A lift adapter apparatus by which one of a plurality of digging buckets can be attached to one of a plurality of backhoe machines comprising an upper and lower bushing and pin assembly attached to spaced lifting ears located on the bucket. The bushings are attached to the ears and receive the pin therethrough so that the dipper receptacle and the curl cylinder receptacle can be attached in journaled relation to a medial length of the exposed upper and lower pins. The width of the bushings and the pin diameter can be selected to enable any one bucket to become operatively attached to any compatible size backhoe machine.
