Fecon Red Line Brush Grapple | Model BG48 & BG84 | Size 48 To 84" | 8 To 30+ GPM | For Mini & Skid Steers
DESCRIPTION
The Fecon Red Line Brush Grapple is a heavy-duty hydraulic grapple attachment engineered for fast, secure handling of brush, limbs, logs, storm debris, and bulky material during land clearing and site cleanup. Available in BG48 for mini skid steers and BG84 for skid steer loaders, it combines a high-capacity open design with dual independent lids for better control of irregular loads. Long serrated tines provide dependable material retention while allowing soil and small debris to fall through, helping operators move brush instead of unnecessary dirt. Inline hydraulic flow control supports smooth lid operation, while protected cylinders and hose routing help shield critical components from jobsite hazards. With rugged construction and adaptable options, the Fecon Brush Grapple is an efficient solution for contractors, landscapers, farmers, land managers, storm cleanup, fence-line maintenance, and right-of-way work.
Key Features
Dual Independent Lids Two independently controlled grapple lids improve load security and allow operators to clamp uneven brush piles, logs, limbs, and irregular materials with greater precision.
Long Serrated Tines Aggressive serrated tines provide a strong grip on brush and debris while helping prevent material from slipping during lifting, transporting, loading, and site cleanup operations.
High-Capacity Open Design The open-tine construction handles bulky loads efficiently while allowing loose soil and small debris to sift through, reducing unnecessary material handling.
Inline Hydraulic Flow Control Integrated hydraulic flow control promotes smoother grapple-lid operation and helps optimize attachment performance across compatible hydraulic carriers.
Protected Hydraulic Components Shielded cylinders and protected hose routing help defend critical hydraulic components against brush, limbs, debris, and other demanding jobsite conditions.
Rugged Steel Construction A heavy-duty frame and high-strength steel construction provide the durability needed for repetitive brush handling, land clearing, cleanup, and material-moving applications.
BG48 Mini Skid Compatibility The BG48 provides a compact 48-inch working width and is designed for mini skid steers requiring a capable hydraulic brush grapple.
BG84 Skid Steer Compatibility The BG84 delivers an 84-inch working width for skid steer loaders, providing increased capacity for larger brush piles, logs, and debris.
Secure Irregular Load Handling Independent lids conform to uneven material, helping operators grip bulky and irregular loads that conventional buckets or forks may struggle to secure.
Optimized Brush Retention The combination of long serrated tines and independent hydraulic lids helps keep brush, limbs, and logs contained during lifting and transportation.
Adaptable Material Handling Optional side plates and a lid bridge provide additional configuration flexibility for specific material-handling requirements and jobsite applications.
Efficient Land Clearing Designed for brush removal, storm cleanup, fence-line maintenance, property development, and right-of-way work where fast debris handling is essential.
Contractor-Ready Performance Built for contractors, landscapers, farmers, and land-management professionals who need reliable hydraulic grapple performance for demanding cleanup tasks.
Debris-Friendly Back Wall The enclosed back-wall design helps reduce debris pass-through toward the carrier while supporting controlled handling of brush and loose material.
Broad Hydraulic Compatibility Supports 8–30+ GPM hydraulic flow, making the Fecon Red Line Brush Grapple suitable for a range of compatible mini skid steer and skid steer applications.

I've started using the mulcher I on several parcels of land 10 acres . I have grind down a couple of 14 inch stumps. Caution the mount bracket behind the mulcher motor exhaust gets extremely hot even with gloves on . But the unit so far seems to works very good it's well put together.
The Firminator G3 is s heavy duty quality machine. The discs worked extremely well and planting and culti-packing is very smooth and easy. Working with Dillon at Ripping It Outdoors was a very good experience and seamless transaction.
After spending way to much money for forest mulching services I discovered this wonderful machine. It's not a giant powerhouse forest mulcher, but it does everything a property owner needs to maintain a forested property. I wish I would have found it sooner.
The Firminator is well built and functions well. I am having some trouble while planting mixed size seeds. Next time out I’ll try setting it so only the smaller seeds drop out the open it up for the larger seeds.
easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.
Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.
My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now.
I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on.
I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.
Great piece of equipment. Performs far better than I expected. One piece of advice - if property is significantly overgrown, consider the tractor attachment first to bring down the over growth and then switch to the UTV attachment to maintain property. No complaints worked perfectly.
Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!
TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks
Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!
These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs.
I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again.
Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors. Fortunately I got Dillion as a representative and everything from sales to shipping was spot on..
Thanks Dillion for your help!!
The only thing is when hooking up the actuator on my ATV. The wire is long going to the plug in. What has happened in the past about this. Is their video showing the usage of the control?
