    mini grapples.

    So we have been fine tuning this grapple in house, and we use this for 95% of our work. We do not chip - we use a grapple truck. We have worked out the weak points, and added stiffeners and the cylinder covers, and have enough hours of use to be confident in the design. We sell these on a...

    2019 Ditchwitch SK1050 for sale

    So I ended up using this mini skid off and on the rest of the year, maybe added another 100 hours. I would like to sell the machine with no attachments, I would let it go for 20K. Tracks are not new but decent. Would make a great second or backup machine! PM me for more details.

    Stump clean up efficiency

    Tell them the topsoil backfill is for the landscapers…we either will backfill with chips or haul everything out and leave a hole, depending on the clients preference. And yes a dump trailer is nice

    Hoeflon C10 and Truck

    So after using this setup for a few years, we have decided to go with a full size instead. So this setup is for sale, but I am willing to separate if necessary Crane is in good condition and has full rotation, extendable jib, remote with readout, extendable tracks, and includes the winch...

    Need scheduling verbiage

    I have found that the client will push you as far as you let them. And I agree with the thought of the mutual trust agreement

    Let’s talk about hook lift trucks

    From what I understand that is a swaploader exclusive - you can keep the bed locked to the front and use it like a dump truck.

    Let’s talk about hook lift trucks

    We have been running a hook lift for about a year. I decided to go with a full size pre-emissions cab and chassis because of the exhaust brake and cheaper maintenance, and a swap loader hook lift because swap loader has the best tilt angle if you want to use it as a dump truck. Here are a few...

    Cardo vs Sena

    Another vote for the cardos - we have previously tried Speakeasy and Sena, and Cardos has been the best for range, connectivity, and noise cancelling.

    2019 Ditchwitch SK1050 for sale

    Approx. 1600 hrs, forks or 4' brush grapple available. PM for pics of attachments. 25K bare machine OBO, attachments extra. Reason for selling - we just took delivery on a new one. I feel these machines are a great balance of maneuverability, serviceability, power, and lifting capacity...

    BMG Grapple Rake mounting ideas
