• Features/Specifications - Power Grapple Arm



Note: The Base Plates mount to the loader arms, and the attachments mount to the base plate (all accept the Speed Bagger Attachment) so you need a base plate to mount the attachments to.

The first item you will need is the mounting base plate which all attachments that require a base plate to mount to need, (except the speed bagger which attaches directly to your loader's lift arms, and the Heavy Duty Double pole Claw which has its own integrated base plate). We have the option of either the fixed base, heavy duty rotating base which has 2 hydraulic cylinders to turn the attachments, or the chain and sprocket powered rotating base which uses and electric motor and is specifically for use with the barrel handler attachment only, as it doesnot have the precise rotational control of the base using hydraulic cylinders; it does have a larger degree of rotation however - 205 degrees.

The fixed, non-rotating base plate is much less expensive than the rotating base plates, but limits what attachments you can probably use. The Fixed base plate works well with the rock pick attachment, with the tree hand, the hitch tool, and the rock and pole claw. All base plates are designed to mount to the arms of skid steer loaders that are quick attach compatable.

The double cylinder rotating base plate gives the torque required when using the various attachments to rotate the load. The fixed base plate can be used on any of the attachments; while this doesn't allow you to rotate the load, it does give you a solid base for lifting and using the hitch tool and root rock pick for example.
