Description

HLA Attachments 48-Inch Light-Duty Root Rake with Grapple is a compact, rugged hydraulic material-handling attachment designed for land clearing and debris handling with compact loaders. Model RRGLD48BO500 combines a 48-inch root rake with a single full-width hydraulic grapple, allowing the operator to gather, secure, lift, and move loose material. Its BO500 skid-steer-style quick-attach mounting configuration fits compact loaders equipped with a compatible skid-steer-style carrier, while the lightweight design helps keep the attachment manageable at an approximate weight of 365 lb.

Compact Root Rake for Material Handling and Land Clearing

The open-tine root-rake design is suited to collecting and handling material while allowing smaller loose debris to pass between the tines. Seven-inch centre-to-centre tine spacing provides a practical balance between material retention and separation. For durability at the working edge, the rake uses 1/2-inch-thick AR400 points.

A single full-width grapple helps secure material across the rake. It opens up to 33-1/2 inches for handling bulky loads and closes to provide an overall attachment height of 28 inches. Grapple movement is powered by one 2-1/2 x 8-inch hydraulic cylinder connected to the loader’s auxiliary hydraulic system.

Hydraulic Operation

Loader auxiliary hydraulics are required to open and close the grapple. The attachment operates with one 2-1/2 x 8-inch hydraulic cylinder. Hydraulic flow and pressure requirements are not specified for this model, so the loader and hydraulic connection should be checked before installation.

Optional hydraulic connection equipment includes the HK90 90-inch hose kit with flat-faced couplers and the HK9090 90-inch hose kit with 90-degree flat-faced couplers. An optional SHMK spring hose-mount kit is also available to support hydraulic hose routing.

Loader Compatibility

The RRGLD48BO500 is intended for compact loaders equipped with a skid-steer-style quick-attach carrier. The BO500 designation identifies HLA Attachments’ skid-steer quick-attach mounting configuration. The loader must also have auxiliary hydraulics to operate the grapple. Confirm the loader’s carrier style, hydraulic connections, and operating capacity before use.
