NorthernTool.com Quick Spade Combo

This looks like a useful attachment to a loader bucket. Anyone out there have experience using one? NorthernTool.com Item# 27701 page 53 of current catalog. Thanks. MGM

Looks like a very handy tool. I can't find any real on-line reviews. Everything I read on different forums seems to read more like spam than actual reviews.

I looked at the quick spade combo web site again last night and thought that if these guys had a "quick tree remover". Something I could quickly attach to my bucket and remove a few hawthorn and other small trees from time to time with in the same $250 price range. I would buy one of those in a heart beat.

I bought a Quick Spade but NOT the COMBO model - Works GREAT. saves on my forks. Well built. Would recommend.
I got mine at QuickSpadeS.com TractorByNet.com | John Deere, Kubota, New Holland, and more! I am not sure but i think they are the manufacturer. Here is a link to get there TractorByNet.com | John Deere, Kubota, New Holland, and more!

I was just reading my Northern catalog in my special reading room. I saw the spade and figured they set that single rock on it for a good picture. I have problems getting rocks in my bucket, let alone pick one up on a spade. Maybe they are easier to see when you have a skid steer. JC

Hey guys

I was just looking around on the web and saw everyone talking about the Quick Spade. I have a Quick Spade Combo on my Kubota tractor. You guys were asking how it worked. I use it everyday. You won't believe how fast you can dig with it. I promise you couldn't dig fast with just a bucket on.

As far as you saying you couldn't pick up a rock with it like the picture. Trust me on this one!!! You can pick up a dime if you want. It's just like using a shovel but you don't have to work.

Just thought you wanted to know my thoughts. I'm telling you if you think you might use one. Try it and you won't leave the house with out it.



Great Forum!!!!

Great Forum!!!!

Any "Action Shots" ?? I would like to see pictures of it in action other than the ones from the manufacturer!! A real product review not from manufacturer would also be nice.

The quick spade may be a good tool, but this thread looks like ad infiltration. There are companies that are hired to have employees join forums just to sell a product. They start posting to each other singing praises to the product, trying to get true members to purchase said product. These people will have more than one user name and promote products on several different forums. Check some of there other posts to see what they talk about. Great living in the land of the free aint it.

RW,

The only thing that bugged me with the QuickSpade is that the chain digs into the top rail of my loader when I'm picking up heavy rocks or trying to dig up areas where roots are everywhere.

I hooked mine up by attaching the chain to the top and bottom hooks on the QuickSpade, wraping all the way around the loader bucket, then racheting the chains tight with a load binder. Are you setting yours up in another manner that avoids the chains grinding against the bucket?

Thanks,

Wei

I wondered about that. Check posting "New Style Grapple".
