The WICKED Root & Debris GRAPPLE!!!!!!!

[RichM752]

I'm too forgetful to take photos, but I've been using the heck out of my 60" dual lid. Cleared about 1.5 acre of blackberry and other assorted bushes/small trees the other day. Worked like a charm. Everyone who witnessed the feat were amazed at the effectiveness of the EA Grapple.

I used my grapple to put a dock on the pond, didn't even get my feet wet .

That reminded me of a bridge I placed over a ditch.

What is width of that grapple? I have same tractor.

Also why did you go with root grapple vs other style? Thanks!

No need to get off the tractor to pick up a 4" steel wheel...grapple will make you lazy!<img src="http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=521492"/>

Now there is grapple that looks like it gets used. Lots of dirt like mine.

55 inch, it seem to fit my needs and it's only around 200 lbs.
I've moved a lot of logs, brush and some pretty big field/creek stones with my little 2501 and the 55 inch grapple.

The water table has continued to drop allowing me to get into areas along my shoreline that I didn't have access to in prior years. These trees where growing during the drought in the 1920s and 30s and died when the water table rose.

I spend a fair amount of time transporting dead wood to my preferred burning area, and so this pile is what about 8 hours of in-cab loader work looks like.

I like it. Save that energy for more important things!

Looks good! Do you like your style grapple or do you think you would have preferred the root style grapple which is more like a dozer blade?

Are you all going to be at the National Farm Machinery Show this year in Louisville?

That's already happened. It's in February. I didn't see them there.

Well yeah... I'm talking about Feb 2018. I got often. Sorry for confusion.

That's a shame. You should attend. It's an awesome show and your business would really grow!

This has been very good. The folks over at EA also acted on a couple of suggestions and made the version 2 better than what I have with a wider opening and bars to help prevent tripping the SSQA.

This style of grapple allow manual loading for bits. Where I'm at our soil is very soft being either sphagnum or lake sand. This style tine allows me to get into old roots and work the deadfalls up out of the ground, stump and all.

We went to the Expo in Moultrie, GA a few years back and really didn't notice any change because of it. It takes quite a bit of time and preparation for those things.

Heck, Ted, Peanut and Nate could go out beside the factory, throw something in the dirt and increase sales, but we really need to get moved and settled into the new facility before we push for more growth.
This is why we haven't really made many new YouTube videos lately. It's kinda sad considering we have these 4 new tractors just begging for a workout! :laughing:

Steve from FL is doing well despite some debris from Irma and the lack of power until it was restored 3pm yesterday.

On the bright side, he does have a 66" Single Lid Wicked Grapple and a Custom 3rd Function Kit on his Mahindra 2555.

I think he said it best:
"IRMA cleanup made easier with the bad @ss Wicked Grapple!"

You will get lots of volunteers to take them off of your hands. Particularly the one on the right for me.
