BIG DAVE

💪 BIG DAVE QUICK REVIEW: WHAT GRAPPLE WIDTH SHOULD YOU BUY?

👉 Wider than your machine—but don’t overload it.

📏 WIDTH RULE

• Go wider than your tracks
• More coverage = faster work

⚖️ MATCH YOUR MATERIAL

🌲 Light (brush, logs)

👉 Go wider

🪨 Heavy (rocks, dirt)

👉 Size down

🧠 TIP

Check:
✔ ROC
✔ Grapple weight
✔ Load weight

👉 Close to limit? Go smaller

🔧 INCLUDED?

✔ Hoses
✔ Couplers*
✔ Cylinders
✔ Fittings
*No couplers on compact tractor models

🔩 WHY 2-CYLINDER GRAPPLES?

• Independent jaws
  👉 Better grip on uneven loads

🪵 SKELETON vs SOLID

• Skeleton = dirt falls through (brush/logs)
• Solid = holds everything (scrap/debris)

🔄 OPEN vs CLOSED SIDES

• Open = easier grabbing
• Closed = cleaner containment

🔥 FINAL WORD

✔ Wider = faster (until too heavy)
✔ Match your machine + material

👉 Size it right = work smarter, not harder.
