looking at a bucket grab type attachment to go on the loader tractor, got quotes from local dealerships for Quicke and Mx but they only want to sell the grabs with Kverneland type tines so had a look online and found this Has anyone got any experience with 'machinery sales EU' seems to look quite the decent product, mainly will be used for clearing up out in the yard/ field moving logs/brushwood so wanted the stronger type grab, will mention that this company are nearly £600 cheaper than Quicke or MX for a 6ft grab

I started a similar thread a few weeks ago , the thing that swayed me was the weight of the bucket grab as most are made for handlers and not tractors , also other forum member has one and finds it difficult to pick up brash , bought a x form grab and a cherry bucket for similar money as one bucket grab

Few too many pennies for me just for a grab on the loader tractor!! Too big for my loader tractor too, need about a 6ft max width for manoeuvrability

Just spoken to machinery sales EU and theirs weighs approx 390kilos which doesn't seem too terrible! And at £1450 seems too good ??

The one I posted above is for a telehandler, sorry I wasn't reading your original post properly. I'm sure Dan from Cherry can fill you in when he see's this.

Hi there, thanks for the heads up @fergie35

The X-Form multi bucket has had very good results so far and, although designed for loadalls, we have done a few for higher capacity loaders and feedback has been good. It is a fair old lump though.

We do a smaller bucket grab specifically for the JCB Teletruk which could be modified. That would be slightly leas weight but still the best part of 500kgs

Dan, do you deal direct or is it all through dealers? Regards George

Hi George, we sell through dealers. Do you want me to pm me your location and I can get a rep from a local dealer to call you with some price?

Regards
Dan
Thanks, local rep is Mark Denton or Richard Gaylard, I will have a chat with them. Was after a few bits as just changed handler and am thinking of replacing lots of old pin and cone bits for a few good new ones. Do you do manitou to euro adapters?

While you're at it would need 2 tonne grain bucket, nodding donkey bale squeeze, and big bale grab.... All shop soiled, nearly free and with manitou brackets of course
