- Built-in covers protect fittings and hyd cylinder
- Optional intermediate bottom tines reduce space between tines to approximately 4'
- Grease zerks protected with tubes
- Root grapple tines curve upward to prevent catching utility lines or cables in storm clean-up
- Hydraulic cylinders operate independently to adjust for uneven loads
