Trying to install a custom grapple onto existing forks on a PT425. Can someone with a Power-Trac grapple bucket, Utility Grapple, or 4N1 bucket explain which hydraulic connections are used to power the auxiliary function?

The same male hydraulic couplers that are hooked up to your Quick Attach cylinder ( the little one ) are the ones you would attach to your grapple cylinder. In order to do this, after you lock in your forks with your quick attach, then unhook the hoses that go to that little cylinder and plug in the hoses for your grapple cylinder.

I would also recommend you buy some plugs for the couplers for the quick attach hose ends that are dangling while not being used to keep the dirt out.
