Thumb Thoughts on Danuser pallet fork grapple?

[Danger18]

I'm hoping this thing is a work horse. Any reviews, comments or comparisons ? Going on an LS XR4036HC

Don't know about their grapple, but Danuser produces top of the line post hole augers.

What is going to be the main job for them?

Do you already have the forks?

For my main jobs, taking trees and brush to the burn pile, I prefer a wide opening grapple.

My tractor arrived three hours early, mid morning, with the new PFL3048 forks, my only add on. Purpose short term is clearing a couple acres of dense forested property. I'm not an experienced operator, but I got a lot of work done with just the forks this afternoon, but I can already see the value in being able to grab something. Long term, just an available tool and another service to offer. I'm on a budget , so a set of teeth for my bucket is first on the list, and then the grapple. I'm trying to put off the purchase of a legit grapple implement until I get some other needed stuff like a tiller and new intermediate duty brushhog.

My original post has a typo. It's a 4046.

To get under the load better? These go nearly vertical on top it looks like.

Conventional tooth bar or serrated' shark tooth jobs?

 

[DieselBound]

My B7800 with a tooth bar can do a LOT of work. When I broke a lower link arm (3pt) using my box blade I had to carry on and break up some ground (some high spots to clip) so I ran the bucket with the tooth bar crammed straight into the ground and back-dragging. Not pretty, but once again it came through. It's also been used to catch and spin logs around, and used to pop out stumps. I've dug a bunch with it, though it's not as good for getting brush like the "shark tooth" gizmo.
