Also, I thought pushing with the grapple lid was a big No-No.
When open it is a no-no but if closed it is not such a problem. Still, it is always preferred to push with middle lower tines.

Lots of the activity shown in that footage is not recommended. That is true impromptu Wicked Grapple testing.

We need to know what the product can take. Obviously, it's a lot!

For the future, you might want to put an overlay on that video pointing out this is torture testing the grapple and not a recommended technique. Most of us get that but I can easily see that a newbie might think this is just normal tractoring technique. It is pretty normal for Bobcats to be used like that but then they are built for it.

On our official videos that are edited and all that good stuff, we would. This was just a fun, quick video that wasn't even planned. He didn't even know I was filming it at first.

You never told us he was a juvenile delinquent who still dreams of a NASCAR second career!

Ted held a World Record in NHRA drag racing for 6 years. He started NASCAR racing at Hickory Motor Speedway in the Budweiser Cup, won 11 out of 13 races, 12 pole positions, Track Champion twice in Limited Sportsman, Track Champion in late model and National Champion for NARA in 2000. After winning everything that could be won in 2000, he sold everything except for his toolbox and war wagon at one big auction.
Soon after, he went to work on EverythingAttachments.com and the rest is history!

Ted works hard and plays hard. Most of his friends that he beat for over 10 years at Hickory Speedway, including Earnhardts, are still on the Cup Circuits and he's still friends with all of them. The only people that didn't like his racing were his Mom and Dad, who questioned him every week about how much the trophy cost. :laughing:

If you want to purchase your attachments from a winner, this is the place because we play to WIN!!!
