The WICKED Root & Debris GRAPPLE!!!!!!!

[Mad Mac]

Thanks for sharing. You sound like a very caring steward of animals and your ranch.

Thank you. Unfortunately, I have to sell this property to settle the estate.
Our realtor made a drone video set to the Buffalo Hunt from Dances with Wolves.
It is a tribute to my father's vision and hard work.

That's a lot of nice looking property. How much are you asking for it?

If you google the ranch name you'll find the realtor's listing and price. Lovely property, I wish it would stay in the family for another century.

I hear you. A lot of the younger generation are just wanting to sell the land around my area.

Agree and I think in a few generations the small farms will be scarce. The more and more people there are, the faster the farmland close to cities will be sold off and divided up.

Beautiful ranch.

I tried talking my cousin into getting it. She said they already have one. Rats.

That is a BIG rock. The tines held up okay?

 

[Sysop]

As far as the eye can see. I didn't toss a tape across em and measure err nothing, but yea, straight as can be.

Impressive. Well built

 

[Sysop]

yea, the two extra plates they add to each tine, with their minor 20 degree bends (I think it was 20), seems to be more than ample to maintain the tines integrity with all a unit the size of mine will put on it (6-8000lbs w/40HP and 2400lbs lift on the loader).

It is definitely a better solution than the triangle shaped gussets of other manufacturers. EA should patent the design of their tines.

I found this on YouTube. Kioti CK2510 grabs a pile of brush with a 50" Wicked Grapple.
I love it when people take the time to show off their Wicked Grapples!! This guy is using his rear remote to open/close the grapple, which would be kinda difficult without modifying the lever IMO.

I used my rear remote on the Kioti CK20 and I found it very natural. Just like reaching for the shifter on a four on the floor manual. I have a diverter on my current tractor and don't really like it as much as the rear remote set up.

I guess it's whatever you get used to. I could see myself liking James kOua's setup pretty good, but not many tractors would make it possible.

Pics of this Kubota L2501 with the 54" Dual Lid Wicked Grapple are pretty impressive!

One of our customers made this video overview showing how simple installation of WR Long's 3rd Function Hydraulic Kit was on his L4600 Kubota with the LA764 loader.
The kit's purpose is to provide hydraulics for his EA 66" Wicked Grapple, which is shiny and glowing with newness!

Slight correction: you state in the little inserted message that the lift capacity was "maximized" with your grapple. I'm sure what you meant to say was that it would have been higher if they'd opted for a single rather than dual lid model!
