The web page I saw listed this grapple for $1980.00
It also shows only one set of hoses. It may have a manual rotate, or electric valve rotate

If that is a straight grapple, the Quick-attach valve on the PT should handle the grapple. If the grapple will also rotate, you will need another valve. That block could also be a standard hydraulic block for connecting the two grapple cylinders.

If you have already bought this grapple, did they explain how to hook up and rotate. Did someone say that it weighed in at 200 lbs.

Yes, the unit is suppose to weigh about 200lbs.

The grapple does not have a rotator. If I remember correctly, the grapple is made so when the PT turns, the grapple will turn the opposite direction. I cannot explain it but I saw a video on this particular action. These are made for the mini skids and I was informed a rotator was not needed. I assume I will wait and see how it actually works.

I had thought just connecting the hoses to the PT would work..should anyway.
