The grapple bucket is working out much better than I would have thought. We used the same style on a Vermeer mini a couple of times and it didn't seem to work as well. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

How about this one..... It's all I have on my phone. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Update..... we've been using our loader a couple times a week and it has been great! Today we removed 3 Lombardi Poplars in half the time we quoted and I literally never broke a sweat. We are going through the learning curve right now but we really believe this was a good purchase for us. I...

Great info guys. Lots to chew on and I definitely appreciate it. We're still trying to figure out the logistics of the whole thing. Today I came up with the idea of getting another 550 with a roll off setup to haul our grinder, loader and pull the dump trailer. As cool as that would be, it...

I based the price off of our stump grinding rates. The loader cost about half as much as our grinder but hopefully we'll use it more. It should pay for itself pretty quickly. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I've got a question about pricing jobs when using your loader..... Do you increase your bid rates or just keep it the same? We used it on a Time and Materials job and probably finished the job in half the time that we would have done it without the loader. This particular job was for a good...

For sure. I'm well aware of his reputation and would love to work with him on a purchase some day soon. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Good to know that you have BMG 's on PT mounting plates. I could totally see getting one in the future. I'll make sure to contact you when the time comes. My sister lives in Minneapolis and picking up a grapple would give me a good excuse to visit her as well. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Thanks. I appreciate it. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Thanks for the feedback..... For some reason I thought you may have been from WI. I think we are going to make up a lifting boom for our PT422. I can see how the BM might be kind of long. We will also be getting a tong set quickly. Thanks to everyone for their comments. Lots of good info...

Also, are you from WI? Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

I think I remember seeing you were selling your Branch Manager that you modded...... Did you ever find a buyer? Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

That thing is awesome! I wish I would have seen that picture a week ago. They sell a boom like that for our machine. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

It was a perfect load of wood.... One basswood and the rest was shagbark and bitternut Hickory. The neighbor ended up taking it and giving us some homemade Maple syrup in exchange. It saved us time and fuel so we were happy to do it. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

First job with the loader and it worked great! We took two trailer loads out and never once raised my heart beat. It's not perfect, but way better than nothing. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

We talked about forks but passed on them and I kind of regret not getting them. Maybe we can just get some of those clamp on forks that just attach onto the bucket. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Nope. We'll buy them if the need it. It handles the 6 inches of snow that we got last night just fine. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

We're are going to have to play around with it to figure out how to best use it. The lift height won't be that big of a problem. It will lift over the sides of our dump trailer and into the back of our chip truck. We've used this kind of grapple bucket in the past and have rigged up various...

Parts are all off the shelf. There is nothing special about this machine at all... . Another positive attribute. It's a Robin (Subaru) gas engine. 22 hp. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Ha! Good point. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
