Thanks Kubotafreak...that's super helpful and I have a few follow-ups. I am looking for an FEL implement to dig out small stumps, dig out impacted rocks, move rocks and other objects around the property. Given how I would use this stump bucket grapple, I think the most relevant spec of the LA1055 you mentioned is "Lift Capacity (500 mm forward, 1500 mm height) 2407 lbs. The
Titan Stump Bucket Grapple Extreme weighs in at 588 lb, leaving me 1,819 lb capacity in that position, which seems like enough capacity for the work I'm planning. The lower duty comparable product Titan has is
Mini Skid Steer Stump Bucket Grapple, weighing in at 242 lb, which would leave me 2,165 lb capacity in that same position. I'm not so sure the extra 346 lbs difference would really be that meaningful, and I think I would lean toward buying the heavier duty implement. Which of those two do you recommend? Or, is there a different stump bucket grapple I should consider? I will also take your advice about buying a narrow grapple as well, so I'll have that at my disposal if I need to move a 2,200+ lb object.
Also, when you mention "Hydraulic skid steer", is that used for attaching FEL skid steer attachments without leaving the operator station?
Thanks again! I probably will have even more follow-up questions, so I really appreciate the help.
