product owners. This Manure Grapple has been
designed with care and built by skilled workers using
quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and
safe operating practices will help you get years of
satisfactory use from this attachment.
Application
The Kubota SGM15 Series Manure Grapples have uses
and applications in farming, ranching, horse ranches,
feedlots, and nurseries. They have the capability of
quickly and conveniently turning your skid steer loader or
tractor loader equipped with a universal quick attach
mounting system into a Manure Grapple for handling
loose and shredded materials such as straw, hay, silage,
manure, branches, sticks, and trash. The optional
grapple fork on top helps hold the loose and/or shredded
materials onto the spears below when picking up a load
and when transporting with a load.
They are available in four different widths. The SGM1566
is 66" wide, SGM1572 is 72" wide and SGM1578 is 78"
wide. Whichever model you select, you’ll find that these
Kubota attachments will save you time and money and
make getting that material handling job done a whole lot
easier.
