A device providing a combined bucket and scarifier includes a bucket havi ng a bottom wall, a rear wall, and two side walls coupled to the bottom wall an d the rear wall to define an interior space. The bucket has an open front end and the rear wall is generally rectangular having a long axis. A scarifier is operatively associated with the bucket. The scarifier has a plurality of teeth constructed and arranged to be moved with respect to the bucket between a stored, inoperative position, and an operative position with portions of the teeth extending outwardly with respe ct to a portion of the bottom wall of the bucket. Actuating structure is mounted wit h respect to the bucket. The actuating structure includes a cylinder unit having a piston, and linkages coupled between the piston and teeth such that movement of the pist on causes movement of the linkages thereby causing movement of the teeth betwee n the inoperative and operative positions. The cylinder unit is mounted with respect to the rear wall such that the piston extends generally along the long axis of the rear wall.
