What happens here

The operator then climbs into a Gehl skid steer loader, starts the engine, and attaches a 'Pallet Fork Add-A-Grapple Model 336S27' from Precision Manufacturing to the existing pallet forks. This attachment allows the skid steer to securely grip and lift logs. He demonstrates how the hydraulic lines are connected and how the grapple's pins are secured for safe operation.

Goal: Equip the skid steer with a log grapple for handling.
