POWER ATTACHMENT - BUCKET

    DANGLING OR POSITIONED, VERSATILITY OF USE

    Contractors in forestry, recycling, landscaping and even general contracting all greatly appreciate the versatility of Rotobec's power attachment grapples for their various configuration options, which allow for a wide variety of uses.

    Whether for the handling of scrap metal, recycling materials, stones or even for certain demolition work, the Rotobec Power Attachment will meet your needs.

    ADVANTAGES

    • Capable of handling various items due to multiple jaw configuration options (rake/rake, rake/bucket, bucket/bucket, demolition).
    • Can carry out highly demanding jobs including certain demolition work and material compaction.
    • When feeding grinders, a positioned continuous rotator minimizes excavator travel thus reducing fuel consumption, undercarriage wear and maintenance costs.
    • Available with a dangling or positioned rotator.

    OTHER FEATURES:

    Mini-Heel

    • Available on Rake and Bucket versions.
    • Mini-Heel welded to both sides of the grapple head allow for better control of longer logs.

    Positioning cylinder kit

    • High pressure positioning cylinder kit is available for installation on machines that are not already equipped with positioning cylinder.

    Float valve

    • A float valve, when activated, allows free rotation of the grapple.

    Live heel

    • Also available is the RPA4570RH, a rake version with a hydraulic live heel that allows for better control of long logs or trees while rotating.

    VALVE-ON-SWIVEL

    1VALVE-ON-SWIVEL

    • A simplified valve-in-head option where the control valves are flanged directly on the core of the hydraulic swivel.
    • No hoses between the valves and the hydraulic swivel.
    • High pressure valves with integrated cylinder relief protection designed for high flow to grapple cylinders.
    • Modular construction using proven and reliable valve sections.
    • Valve sections can be replaced independently and can be interchanged.
    • Valve sections and coils can be quickly replaced.
    • Easier access to all components.

    LUGGING
