An easy little project made out of stuff laying around.
Working in brush, branches or more generally the woods I've had one or both of the ssqa levers get bumped to open. Beyond the obvious safety precautions (for the safety police) I've dropped off buckets, forks and a grapple in the past 25+ years. They've all been uneventful other than maybe having to hook a chain up to the attachment to drag it out of a ditch to be able to hitch it back up. Several occasions were with a hydraulic attachment that broke a fitting or hyd line.
What's pictured is an excavator to SSQA adapter that I use for my disc mulcher. It's high flow with 3 lines to be worried about especially the 2 3/4" lines are expensive. Mulching is not your typical ssqa use, but loosing that while the 1200 pound disc is spinning could be ugly.
