Attempting Improper Grapple Loading
At 2:00 in
What can it do? Testing a new mini skid steer
What happens here
The presenter uses a Bobcat S185 skid steer, equipped with forklift attachments, to lift and position a heavy grapple attachment (identified as a 'Frost Bite' brand) onto the bed of a black Ford F-150 pickup truck. The presenter explicitly mentions the risk of damaging the truck during this process due to the weight and awkward placement. The grapple is placed into the truck bed without the use of any straps, chains, or other load securement devices. The presenter attempts to 'gently tuck it in' and 'teeter it in' to fit it, relying solely on its placement within the bed rather than any fastening mechanisms. This segment serves as a cautionary example of how *not* to load heavy equipment for transport.
