Overview
The TMG-SPG45 combines 48-inch ITA Class III forged pallet forks with a two-cylinder hydraulic clamping grapple. Fork spacing adjusts from 9 to 49 inches, and the 62-inch wide frame adds stability when handling long materials like pipe or lumber. Rated to 6,200 lbs lift capacity on machines with hydraulic flow between 10 and 23 GPM at 1,450–2,610 PSI. The clamp arms open nearly vertical, making it straightforward to slide under palletized loads or clamp irregular round stock. Corrosion-resistant cylinder rods hold up in wet and muddy site conditions. At 1,310 lbs, verify your machine's rated operating capacity before loading to the grapple's rated limit.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You lift pallets, bundles, or stacked material regularly and want the machine you already own to do it
- Quick-attach compatibility means you can swap in forks without a second machine
⛔ Skip if…
- Your loads are heavy round stock or poles — pipe grapple tines handle those better
- The fork weight would push your machine near its ROC limit for the loads you're lifting
🔍 Also consider…
- Bale spear for farming operations with round or square bales
- Pipe grapple forks for cylindrical or irregular stock
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

Care & Maintenance
- Inspect tines weekly for bending, spreading, or cracking — a deformed tine is a structural failure, not cosmetic; take it out of service immediately
- Check tine adjustment pins and stops before every heavy lift — loose pins allow tines to shift under load
- Grease carriage slide bearings and tine clamp mechanisms monthly
- Inspect frame welds for cracking, especially around the top hook and lower receiver bar — these are the highest-stress points on the frame
- Verify load rating labels are legible on the frame; worn or missing labels are a safety compliance issue in commercial and regulated jobsite use
How to Connect
- Slide fork frame onto Bob-Tach receiver arms
- Pull lock levers to engage
- Verify orange indicators locked
- Adjust fork width to load before lifting — most frames allow no-tool width adjustment
⚠ Safety NoteNever exceed the rated capacity of the fork frame — check the frame decal
