John Deere 2038r Grapple Review 2022 / 135

Most grapples attached to your tractor’s loader require a third-function hydraulic or electric valve, allowing the grapple's top jaw to open and close. Today, we'll compare a Hydraulic Grapple and a Mechanical Westendorf 4215 Brush Crusher Grapple. The Westendorf mechanical grapple uses the force of gravity and the loader’s existing bucket cylinders to open, close, and grab debris. We'll also demonstrate substituting tractor forks instead of a grapple.

Welcome to my channel. I'm in Dubuque, Iowa, and my channel is known as Today in Iowa or Bill Burkhart 1025. I'm a do-it-yourselfer and rural enthusiast. Be sure to check out my channel and the many videos, including the John Deere 2038r compact tractor, the John Deere 1025R loader backhoe, and the many implements I use to maintain my property.
