Daferris, that is really a sweet set up. I like the addition you made & was bummed out when EA filed for bankruptcy. According to a few of their last few videos - what you’ve done to your grapple was exactly the same additions / upgrades they were going to start adding to their grapples -...

Jim, Thank you for taking the time to respond & share your experiences w me. This is exactly the type of feedback that is critical to guys like me who are just beginning to learn the many things a tractor can be used for on a country property.

Oh he’s a track addict & a great guy. Please tell him Justin B from the HK days said hi.

Elliot, thanks for the great intel. I’m going to add a Piranha tooth bar to the bucket … based on your experience - sounds like that may answer the mail.

Evil Twin, you wouldn’t perhaps know an old work friend of mine Bernie would you? I’m tracking what you’re saying & I am grateful to you & other folks helping me sort through this information overload. Thank you.

A Grand L4060. I haven’t bought the tractor yet … I’m saving to knock out 50% & finance the rest.

Birddogger, Your picture is exactly how my truck & trailer look after hours w the chainsaw, machete, rakes etc … That picture is exactly what my goal is w the grapple - plus being able to move felled tree lengths that I’ve cut & need to be cut into rounds & moved to the splitter. So the big...

Bird dogger, EvilTwin, mcmxi & MapleLeaf Great feedback all Your pictures attached are exactly how my truck & trailer look after hours w the chainsaw, machete, rakes etc … Like you, my 2 teenage sons abandoned me for college & now I’m doing all the work by hand - just back breaking & brutal...

GreensvilleJay, My needs are bit of both. Roots on invasive Russian Olive and massive piles of thorn, brambles & blackberry that cover over an acre of my property. It was along my fence lines & several massive patches that I’ve cleaned up w chainsaws, loppers, steel rakes & machetes. The...

Orange Tractor Talk Chatsters, I’ve been following this thread for sometime now. 1st - thank you for not killing this thread. Many of us newbies or wannabes need this intel from you seasoned, experienced, thoughtful tractor operators. Is Homestead now the go to for grapples with EA out of...

I was astounded bc I thought CDC guidance was for at risk folks (1 would think Lyme falls into this category) to get the vaccine. Her physician was adamant about her not getting the vaccine. With chronic Lyme she recovered 4 times as fast as I did (I’m healthy but w the vaccines on board bc...

Not e Not expressing political views … just stating facts from my experience & my wives experience w Covid. I do hope you get better - it’s not a pleasant experience. Ivermectin isn’t political, just a drug that’s been successfully used worldwide for decades. Sharing my experience that...

Sorry to hear you are sick w COVID19. The shots do nothing to help. BC of my real job I am in & out of Gov Facilities w Govies often & have been supporting Gov activities as a contractor for decades. We were mandated to get the vaccine. Once the vaccine mandates were removed … I stopped...

JonnyRay, Please keep me posted. Great for you & exciting. We had a bad storm last night & I told my wife … I need a tractor asap. I’ve got 3 huge trees down & 6 smaller ones. Using my truck, trailer and 2 Sthil MS 261 CM’s is wearing me out. I just think with a tractor / grapple my...

DVR, Thank you for the response. I’m interested in any thoughts on this folks so please jump in w both feet.

1st gear, I’m looking at similar implement costs: Virnig grapple, forks, Kubota 805 FEL, 3rd FVK, Land Pride box scraper, Land Pride landscape rake & hopper

1st gear, great intel. Thank you for sharing. I was looking at the new L4802 before I saw the FEL capacity & extra goodies on the L3560 & L4060 w the 805 loader. I’ve got 19 acres. 12 which is fairly finished & just mowed twice annually & has horses on it through October. I’ve got...

Brian, Thank you for the update. If you go to check it out … could you post a few pics? If not, all good. I know you’re busy w your L4701. Take care Sir.

Griz, really enjoy your input & thoughts. That’s my one fear w the cab. One of our fields has some low-hanging limbs. Plus side of the cab is I’ve gotten poison ivy twice this summer clearing russian olive w chainsaws and pushing through the vines … just brutal. I think the grapple /...

Griz, My wife has been giving me grief about all the research I’ve been doing on this. She’s usually spot on but since this is all new to me … figure measure a few times & cut once. I don’t recall exactly how much less the Limited Edition was … your guesstimate sounds close though. I was...
