Does anyone know if the SGC0548 48" Grapple is compatible with the B2601? It does not come up as compatible on the Land Pride Web Site. I like the 48" Grapple for its light weight and narrow size. Just planning on lightweight brush, limb and cord wood work on my hilly property. Want to keep loads light, low and narrow. Also like the closely spaced teeth and the parking stand. Otherwise plan to use the tractor mainly for snow removal, some brush hogging, gardening and whatever else comes up. Many thanks in advance to all the users. I have been enjoying your posts last couple of weeks.

I have the SGC0548 and it only fits the pin on FEL of the BX. It is not SSQA compatible . I had to go with the pin on system in order to get the lighter and smaller grapple. I believe that it is very hard to find a 48 in. grapple for the SSQA. However, this member makes them and has some for sale:

If you have SSQA you want the SGC0554. This model does not have the parking stand. It is also 54" wide and weighs 180lbs. I have attached a pic of the specs.

Thank you. Yes SSQA is what the B2601 should have. Funny the Landpride product page shows this 54" grapple ONLY compatible with BX series. Someone on another thread said it works fine with his B2601. I need to find that thread. Dont see it here. Thanks again.

It will fit the B2601 fine, I have used one on mine which was recommended by my dealer. The only trouble you may run in to is if you have a warranty issue since LP recommends it for the BX series. There are members on here who run the 54 on larger tractors like a LX2610.

Thanks. Any trouble standing it up on the tines, or picking it up while it is tilted forward?

Sorry liked this by accident trying to reply. No none at all. I open up the grapple, roll it forward, and place on the ground with the jaws open. I make sure to leave it so the quick attach plate is angled in such a way it makes for easy on easy off.
