</font><font color="blue" class="small">( When using a grapple or making constant adjustments to the angle of a snow plow it will be more productive to be able to keep your hand on the joystick then for your hand to need to move to the rear remote lever to make the same adjustments)</font>
If there is anything I know any less about than snowplows, it's probably snowblowers. I thought you just sat the thing down and drove forward. That's the way it looks in all the pictures I've ever seen. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I'm currently planning on running my lines to my grapple from my rear remote. My pocketbook is bleeding heavily due to my recent conversion to quick-attach, a new rock bucket, a new 60" bucket, a new Uni-hitch adapter for my old bucket, a new QA 3PH adapter, and a bazillion hydraulic fittings and hoses. After my bank account stops beggin' for a cash transfusion, I'll want to install a diverter too. By that time all you guys should just about have all the "bugs" worked out and I can avoid any gotchas. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] OOPS! I forgot to include the grapple. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Heck, that's the cheapest thing I've bought lately. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] |

</font> Jim as everyone already knows full well in the snow belt (that's us): Snowplowing is hard, tedious work requiring multiple and highly accurate passes to reposition the snow. Besides keeping your hand on the joystick is the manly thing to do. Sometimes we have to wash down our dry throats caused by the excessive work load with multiple Hot Toddies. I'm so glad that we could finally help you Southern folk a bit with this acquired knowledge. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I'm also hoping that once you get all those new toys working on your Boomer that you'll be nice enough to share a few pictures with us. I'de for one love to see your new rock rake/grapple in action. |
