OP, we still need info on what you mean by "detachable" but, given the info that Jeff provided, I would be looking at pin on forks, if I were you. It'll give you as much capacity as possible. Takes longer to swap out than quick attach, but it saves weight. Personally, I would stay away from bucket forks, unless there's just no other option. Far lower lift capacity and you have a good chance of bending the edge on your bucket with them.
I guess by detachable they are also called clamp on pallet forks. New to this

Clamp on bucket forks work if you have a spotter. The challenge being the operator cannot see the forks.
No comparison to using QA forks. Plus the load is very far out in front of the tractors lift point greatly reducing the lift capacity.

Pin on pallet forks "pin" on the the FEL lift arms, replacing the bucket. Lock pins have been known to be surreptitiously removed by tree branches. Lock pins are secured with Zip Ties by the experienced. Pins sometimes run into the bush, seeking to escape. Keep spares.

Pin on pallet forks are slightly slower to attach and detach than clamp-on pallet forks.


Clamp-on pallet forks clamp on the FEL bucket.
