Add-A Grapple Bucket Grapple

The Add-A-Grapple Bucket Grapple is an add-on grapple designed to fit a variety of applications including: utility and compact tractors with buckets from 60 to 79 inches (single or double model); contractor add-a-grapple model for farm tractors, backhoes, and large volume buckets from 68 to 90 inches wide; single grapple model for standard size skid steer loaders with buckets from 68 to 90 inches; and a single grapple model for mini-skid steer buckets from 36 to 55 inches wide. The Add-A-Grapple attaches to your existing bucket by bolting a mounting plate to each side of your bucket, with the rest of the frame and grapple being easily removed by pulling 2 hitch pins. The curved grapple teeth are designed for a wide grip and easy release.

• Features/Specifications


• Designed to bolt on to your existing bucket on your compact tractor, farm tractor loader, skid steer loader, or mini-skid loader. The grapple tines can be removed by pulling two hitch pins; leaving the mounting bar on top of the bucket. The Mounting bar is normally out of the way on the top edge of the bucket so you can continue to use the bucket unrestricted for other loading jobs.



• Designed to pick-up brush, debris, and hard to handle material, is available with a single or double grapples for the tractor mounted model, and single grapple models for the other applications
• An optional selector valve is available to add an extra set of hydraulic outlets, order this optional accessory if you order the model with the double grapples and want to move them independently; otherwise the grapples will open and closed together


• Single Grapple Tractor Model






• Note: The standard single and double Add-A-Grapple Models DO NOT include hoses. On single models you will need to be able to plug in 2 hoses, on double models with 4 hoses you will either need to be able to plug in 4 hoses, or you will need to purchase one of the valves or kits listed in the accessories section below.




Shipping - The standard single and double models can be shipped by Fedex Ground service. The cost is listed below. This will be your least expensive option as shown. The Grapples are an industrial tool, so to save money on shipping, the factory ships the grapples in several pieces (assembly is easy), and they won't be boxed or wrapped, so expect some paint touch-up to be required.
You can also choose to have them shipped on a pallet, in which case they will be assembled and will come with less abrasions on the paint. Please note the cost as listed.

• To connect the Add-A-Grapple you will need to be able to connect either 2 (single grapples) or 4(double grapples)hydraulic hoses. You will need to either be able to connect to a auxilliary outlet(s) on your tractor that will give you contant flow from your pump, or to splice into the in and out ports at the pump and divide the flow that goes into your existing loader control valve. In either of these cases, you will need to purchase a separate control valve to operate the grapple. We have complete multi-section control valves available for up to 8 sections. You could also completely replace your existing control valve with a larger one to control all functions, but it is probably just as easy to order a 2 or 4 section valve (for 2 or 4 hose connections) and just make a mounting bracket and use this separate valve for just controlling the grapple; you will have to measure and make the hoses the necessary length.



• If you have a loader control valve that has flexible hydraulic hoses connecting with quick connectors going to the loader cylinders, then you can order either the manual or electric diverter valve shown on this page, an split the flow coming out of the existing control valve and for example, use the control lever that tilts the bucket to also open and close the grapple.



• The diverter valves are shown on this page, depending upon what you need, complete multi-section control valves are priced up to about $400.00. If you need a complete control valve, let us know what you need and we can quote you exact cost.
