Electric Grapple Built For Compact Tractors
 |
The universal grapple fits up to 72-in. models and is powered by a 12-volt electric motor mounted on back. The motor operates a hydraulic pump and a linear actuator. It comes with a wiring harness that connects to a rocker switch, which can be mounted on the tractor’s loader joystick handle.
“Our electric grapple sells for $1,500 plus S&H, which is an economical alternative to buying a standard grapple and then adding hydraulics to the tractor,” says Friesen. “It has about 380 lbs. of clamping force, which is enough to handle everything from loose debris and tree trimmings to small square bales and small logs. There are no hydraulic hoses to get tangled up and very little chance of an oil leak.”
