It shows the pin hookup process, how the grapple holds long branches at waist height for easier cutting, and a kickback caution. It's a quick practical demo, not a full review or spec rundown.
Appears to be an owner-operator demonstrating equipment use on their own property, not a dealer or manufacturer channel.
Drive right up to it like hooking up a bucket, hook it in, raise and curl it back, then snap the left pin through the front loader mount and do the same on the opposite side.
Yes, you can put a 15 to 18 foot long branch in the grapple, and as long as you center it, you can cut on both sides into smaller pieces.
It holds branches well and lets you cut at waist level without bending, but you must be careful since the branch can kick back while cutting.
