Overview
The wide-inch root grapple clears brush, logs, stumps, and debris on Canadian acreages and land-clearing sites. The tined design lets dirt fall through while gripping irregular material securely. John Deere Worksite Pro attachments are stocked and supported by Brandt and John Deere dealers at over 100 locations across Canada. Hydraulic operation from the cab lets operators sort and place material with precision — no manual handling. Available in Canada through Brandt / John Deere Worksite Pro dealers.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You clear brush, saplings, slash, and debris that a bucket can't grip
- You work on land clearing, right-of-way maintenance, or post-harvest cleanup
⛔ Skip if…
- You move dense solid loads like rock, sand, or gravel — a grapple loses material through the tines
- Your primary task is loading trucks — a GP bucket is faster for dense material
🔍 Also consider…
- Industrial grapple if you also handle large rocks or demolition debris
- Stump grinder if stump removal is part of the job
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Designed for John Deere machines but mounts to any skid steer or CTL with a universal SSQA quick-attach plate.

Care & Maintenance
- Grease all pivot points every 8 hours of operation — this single habit extends service life more than any other maintenance step
- Inspect tines for bending or cracking after use in rock or demolition debris — bent tines cause uneven closing force and can fail under load
- Check hydraulic hose connections and fittings weekly — grapple hoses take more abuse than most attachments due to constant jaw cycling near rough material
- Inspect cylinder pins and bushings monthly; sloppiness in the jaws indicates worn bushings, not just general age — replace before the pin starts wearing the bore
- Store with jaws closed to reduce stress on the frame and keep the hinge pivot pins from accumulating debris
How to Connect
- Mount using same Bob-Tach process as buckets
- Connect hydraulic couplers (depressurized — release aux hydraulics first)
- Verify open/close direction at idle before working
- Test grapple open/close 3× before lifting any load
⚠ Safety NoteConnect hydraulic lines before mounting to machine where possible
