Worksaver in Litchfield Illinois makes adapter brackets that would allow quick attach hook up like on skid steers and they also have a good variety of grapples. I have gotten several attachments for my skid steer that they make and all have performed flawlessly. Run a set of hoses from the back hydraulic connectors up to the front to operate the closing action. You may have to add a Fasse valve to be able to operate all functions unless you have switched to a joystick control. You will need to be able to have 3 functions to make it work. I put mine on a New Holland tractor at times and it has joystick for loader functions and 2 open ports on back. Next you will want the 3 point blade on the back for ballast with a big log hanging off the front it will get tippsy and then the blade can be used to push small limbs into a pile and level the site as you finish up. You will find many uses for the grapple, we have even used our to break up lime piles when they have froze up. Sorry this got long, just glad to help.
