Grappling fun - A Picture Thread....

[Jim Timber]

I like it!

Shortly after taking this pic, I moved a whole brush pile in one bite. It handles boulders with ease. I haven't tried de-rooting with it yet, but it's done everything I've asked of it with style.

Have you had any limbs grab your hydraulic lines and mess them up?

 

[Jim Timber]

No, I doubt they'd be any worse off than any other grapple. The tine spacing is around 7".

I am so jealous of you guys that have a grapple. I just showed some of the pics to the red head and she said, "what are you waiting for?" I'm like, What??? Looks like one just might be in my future! I'm feeling lucky now. :drool:

They're not even exposed to the 3 sections that are open between the SSQA brackets.

This is a red maple bush.

And this was a 2" stump of something - I'm not sure what. I cut it years ago, and it got in the way of my grading the rocks so I pulled it out and was surprised what came along for the ride out of that little thing.

I used the grapple to drop these in the row as pictured. I then came back and cleaned up the line a bit.

I love this thing!

Found another good use for the grapple!

Loading and unloading the stump grinder in the truck, not enough room on the trailer for it!
