grapple for jd790 with 419 fel

[IslandTractor]

Your machine will handle it just fine.

I agree. I ran a similar size grapple with a 100+lb QA adapter on a 20hp Kioti tractor and was able to lift a lot. I think the lift capacity of the JD790 is actually a bit less than the Kioti (about 1100lbs as I recall) but you don't need the QA adapter either.

Here are some examples of what you can lift with a light duty 48 inch grapple

Thanks again for your help. I'll probably have more dumb questions later
(when I try to plumb the 3rd function).

The simplest way on a JD is to add a diverter off of the dump/curl circuit. Here are a couple threads to look at:
