Surely not difficult to swap fittings to suit they aren’t that expensive

What brackets as they can’t be changed? Oil fittings are easily changed

I dont understand what you mean?

Only pic I could find of the actual attachment but what actually attaches it to the tractor? What machine is it?

I cant get anything on new years day as everything is shut and I need one pretty much immediately. I borrowed one from a friend but it has female fittings so that was a waste of time

What type of attachment brackets is what people are getting at I think...as in jc b q fit.pin and cone as in the photo above,Euro fitting or what type...oil pipes would be simple ish to sort out .maybe even connect directly if you've not got the correct male or female reqired?

 

[waterbuffalofarmer]

It fits on the front of the tractor but it won't open. It's not open atm and it won't open if that makes sense?

Do you have any neighbors that you could call on most farmers would have a draw full on miscellaneous oil fittings for these sort of problems

So you just need to connect the pipes up,you may be able to remove the couplings and just connect the pipes directly if they happen to be the correct thread ,which if your really desperate some water fittings are the same or at least would do if your ca reful...if not then you need to acquire the correct other half of the fitting.can you remove one from another machine or someone else's locally.your not local to me I don't think, otherwise you could come here no problems.I'm lincolnshire.

Same here shss shoveller , loads of fittings hundreds of them ,
has the op not got any other machines they could rob some quick couplers off ,or hoses maybe 1/2 inch maybe 3/8 ths , or just join pipes up as others said ,

Do you need to move a dead horse?

 

[Ffermer Bach]

have you tried Carl, Cobra Hydraulics Ltd in Pencader? Carl says 24 hours service? Even if you drive to him to pick up the fittings

Hi @waterbuffalofarmer - quite understand that you're not a machinery buff like most on here. Can you post a photo showing the loader the grab needs to fit with no bucket on it? We'll all know what fittings you need then.

I've a small, tractor loader size, grab here that would do you but it's on matbro pin and cone fittings. I'm also 250 miles away but that's just a logistics issue.

Just swap one male and one female fitting - couple of spanners , 2 minutes - cost zero.
