Add A Grapple - Mini

Convert Any Existing Bucket Into A Grapple Bucket!

The Mini Add A Grapple Mini is designed for converting buckets 36″ to 55″ in width to grapple buckets. This is an especially good application for the compact tractor with a pinned bucket and for mini skid steers. The grapple is easily removed to convert back to bucket only – the mount stays in place. See our Grapple Spec Sheet in the Other Documents below to make the correct choice for your equipment usage, and the "Size Guide" is below the Add To Cart to help confirm proper size selection.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS WHEN SHOPPING FOR A GRAPPLE

• Do you want to add a grapple to your existing bucket or remove your bucket and attach a grapple rake?
• Do you have auxiliary hydraulic outlets? If not, see accessories for Xtra Valve Kit. If you have a set of outlets in the rear of your tractor you might want to run a set of hoses from those outlets to the front of your tractor. Conceal them and secure with cable ties so the hoses do not get in the way. Now you can put couplers on the ends and have a disconnect point at the front of the tractor instead of having long hoses to manage.
• How do you intend to use the grapple? Cleaning barns, picking up loose hay, moving round hay bales, brush or construction debris? Choose the right grapple for your job.
• What is the lift capacity of your loader? Choose a grapple that is less than 50% of your loader lift capacity but still strong enough to do the job.
• What is your price range? This is a slippery slope. Choosing a low price grapple may cost you more in the long run, plus frustrate you.

IMPORTANT FEATURES TO LOOK AT WHEN CHOOSING A GRAPPLE

The width of the opening may be the most important feature of a grapple. A wider grapple opening means you can grab more material. Some are even wide enough to grab large round bales. Spacing of tines is important. For brush we think 6” is ideal. It is wide enough to sift the dirt yet tight enough to hold smaller brush. For rock buckets we think 3” is ideal for the same reasons. Single grapple or double grapple? We sell far more doubles than singles. Mainly because with a double grapple you can clamp down on uneven loads. Almost all brush loads will be uneven. A single grapple may be preferred for picking up even material such as hay bales. A grapple that weighs over 50% of your lift capacity may limit the material you are able to carry. Choose one slightly less than 50%. Getting one too light will be costly in the long run.
