Kevin compares mechanical vs. hydraulic grappler versions, gives list pricing for both (roughly $2,616 vs $2,276 plus hydraulic kit costs), notes the 1,200 lb lift rating, and demonstrates hookup and basic scooping/moving of brush and trees. Useful mainly for buyers researching grapple attachments, not tractor specs.

The mechanical grappler lists for $2,616 and needs no hydraulics to hook up. The hydraulic AB20F is 53 inch, lists for $2,276, but you must add a hydraulic kit plus labor, pushing cost well over $3,000.
The mechanical grappler, model MG20F, is rated to lift up to 1,200 pounds.
You simply bring the tractor over and load it up, ready to go in about two seconds, with no hydraulics to add, operated using the tractor's joystick.
It is used for hurricane cleanup, moving trees out of driveways, moving brush piles, and picking up fallen trees from customer properties.
