I just purchased an Earthforce/IR/Bobcat TLB. The service manual references all three companies. Where can I find information on this machine? It came with a snowblower attachment and i want to know if i can also use a grapple. I think the SB requires a high-flow loop and did not know if a grapple would work or what I had to do to make it work. They don't sell high-flow grapples. I am a newbie and want things to work correctly.

What type of valve, mechanical or electric, would the grapple connect to?

It is mechanical with two flat connectors on the front. The top connector is for the electrical connection for the snowblower.

That should work fine for a grapple.
If it is too fast you can insert a flow restrictor in one grapple connector.
