Am I missing something here? I’ve looked back 2 pages and haven’t seen anything except pallets used as intended.

The orange grapple crushed the pallet it was on. Joke because the EA grapples are supposed to be lightweight. Maybe it got dropped or something was set on top of it.

Funny guys! :laughing::laughing:

Yeah, sometimes the freight carriers aren't the most careful and gentle!! Both items were wrapped nicely with black plastic before leaving here, which has really helped to reduce scratching/scuffing.

YEP
When I received my Box Blade and Forks stacked on top of each other.
Both Pallets were destroyed but there was no damage done to the implements.

Not even a scratch.
Carriers are rough on stuff for sure.

Why would anyone be concerned of scratches on a grapple? It seems odd to me.

I agree with ya 100%
the first time you use it it gets scratched and even dinged up.
It is the nature of using a Tractor.

Trenton from Texas may be scratching his Wicked 60 Grapple Rake up a bit with this gnarly Texas sized tree limb!
(just shared in the EA Channel Group)

The tractor is a maximized, more capable than ever, Kubota L6060.

Finally got mine last week. Here's a pic of it on our Kioti CK3510se.

Learned a couple of things I didn't know:

1) Didn't realize the way that the WR Long kit is plumbed that the rear remote lever has to be in the 'mid' position ('off') for the 3rd function to work. Scared me for a sec because it was working, then I was using the back hoe for something before putting the tractor away for the night. The next day, the open/close on the grapple didn't work (until I figured out the rear remote was still 'on').

2) You can root rake, or you can steer, but not both at the same time. ;)

I did have a question - I know that you shouldn't back-rake with the edge of the bucket because it's possible to bend the extended cylinder shaft, but is it OK to do so with the top of the clamp on the Root Rake?

I think I read that you do use the top tines to back drag for roots. Looks impressive!
