Titan Attachments 34" Clamshell Root Grapple Rake Attachment, Fits Mini Skid Steer Quick Tach Mounting System, Twin 3,000 PSI Cylinders, Brush Debris Landscaping Grapple, Toro Dingo, Ditch Witch

I own about 20 different implements for my mini skid and this grapple is my GO TO most used attachment. It is so versatile from hauling debris to actually doing rip outs of brush and old landscaping features. The hinged tine portion of the grapple opens all the way straight up and can be rolled forward making the grapple like a heavy duty rake. I can open the grapple all the way open and use the fixed tines and drive into the bottom of a bush towards the root ball and roll the grapple hydraulically and heave bushes out of the ground . Then bring the moving part of the grapple down on top of the bush crushing it between the tines and rip the bush right out of the ground . I have ripped railroad ties and many landscape timbers out of the ground that were held in by 3' spikes. Moved concrete chunks and tons of logs etc etc etc. It's like having a large heavy duty extension of a hand. Once you own one you will find many uses for it . It will totally pay for itself in a short amount of time. The only issue I have

Not sure how other companies are charging literally thousands more fore grapples similar. Put it through the paces today and I'm not disappointed. The help doesnt realize yet but this attachment is going to cut labor on many projects by 70%. Very strongly built and strong hydrolics. Should have done this year's ago. Extra long hoses need a zip tie to loop and shorten for my machine so as not to accidentally pinch. Excellent product.

Half the price of a Quick Attach, Ryan’s or Toro grapple and just as good. Other than my bucket, this is the most useful attachment I have. Love this tool. With 2 3,000 lbs cylinders it has the power to pickup anything: rocks, logs, brush....anything really that fits.

Everything is good except for not being able to grease bottom pins, and the hoses not being secured to frame.

Have not used yet but was shipped quickly - well packed and is well built!

I was wondering how the grapple would be shipped, but was pleasantly surprised to find it securely attached inside an angle frame box. Very impressive. I found it to be very nicely made, with only a few little problems. The lower cylinder pins have grease fittings on the inside, up against vertical, steel plates, so it is impossible to reach the fittings. I drilled the pins from the outside and installed American grease fittings. No big deal. When I had the pins out, I discovered the left side to be so out of alignment that I couldn’t get the pin out. The cylinder was in a bind. I had to grind the top of one hole and the bottom of the other hole to relieve the pressure. I’m using the grapple on a new Vermeer, so I assume my adapter plate is made correctly, since I have other attachments that fit very well. The grapple, however, is so sloppy when installed that It almost seemed in danger of falling off. I solved the problem by making 0.320” steel shims between the bottom of the grapple adapter and the Vermeer adapter. I think the manufacturer could tighten up the adapter plate by at least a quarter of an inch. Aside from those few, minor problems, I think it is a great device.

Attachment is built great, I think the measurements are off a little with the mounting plate. The toro , ram rod, mini skid mounting plate i bought from skid steer solutions that is standard size is so loose the pins don't even touch and it falls out. Side to side looks good it just looks like you guys have to shorten up the height exactly 1 inch. I can fabricate and weld so it's not an issue for me I will just ad some spacers but someone who can't will surely have a issue with this and can be very dangerous not being secure with the pins in if someone doesn't realize that .

pretty good for the price. if you used it to lift heavy logs on a weekly basis you will probably break it in a year. i have had 4 of them in the last 4 years.

Good looking product

The pins on my dingo tx 1000 aren't long enough to fit in the holes of this attachment. The attachment is so loose it falls out. Now I have to figure out how to modify it to make it work. Also, Titan will charge you for shipping even though their website clearly says "free shipping on all orders." You better know how to weld and have some extra cash for surprise shipping charges.
