The host and a property owner discuss grapple width selection, technique tips like keeping teeth level and squeezing as loads shift, cab visibility workarounds, and ordering through afolks.com with a coupon code. Best for compact tractor owners weighing which Precision grapple size fits their machine.
Tractor Time with Tim is a hobbyist/enthusiast channel focused on compact tractors, and the host has a clear commercial relationship with the grapple supplier (affiliate coupon code), so the product coverage skews promotional.
The video uses a Precision 322 on the 1025R, while the 327 is sized for three series or four series tractors, which is bigger than a 1025R.
The owner says it measures 54 inches from tip to tip when opened, and notes the grapple comes in a 60 inch or 72 inch width option.
The owner says he does not see any reason for the wider width, calling it unnecessary extra weight with no real benefit over the narrower size.
Keep the teeth level with the ground, go slow, and keep squeezing with the third function as the load shifts so you do not have to pick up stray pieces.
