Grapple Manure Fork

[das4006]

I am looking for an affordable attachment to clear manure from a barn routinely. I have looked at manure forks with grapples. Is there anything on the market that would be affordable or better than a manure fork? I have a Kubota BX25D. Thanks

Do you want to remove the bucket and go with grapple set up or just tines. If you are trying to move straw type bedding that is packed together the grapples will make this job much easier. Just moving semi solid manure would a tooth bar be enough?

I have one of these and really like ithttp://www.bobcat.com/attachments/utility_fork
Mine is an early one with the name Melroe on it. The tines fit in the holes, with bracing behind. There is a cotter key or pin holding each tine in from the back. You can move them around to different holes and configurations. I found mine used and traveled quite a distance to get.It was rusty and I wire wheeled the tines where they go through the holes real well and keep them oiled so it is easy in remove or insert or move them. I have the unit on my l4400 with SSQA.
