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.
The week before leaving for my mule deer hunt in Wyoming, I seeded the area surrounding the new runway at Wertheimer Airport in Norman.
This past Tuesday, I returned to finish the job and was pleased to see that the seed I planted just two weeks earlier was already germinating and coming up nicely.
These pictures show the freshly seeded areas alongside those planted two weeks ago. It’s a great comparison and a good example of what proper seedbed preparation and planting can accomplish.
I used my Ferminator G-3, which is one impressive piece of equipment. It prepares the seedbed, plants the seed, smooths the soil, and firms everything up for good seed-to-soil contact—all in one efficient operation.
I’ve owned and operated several no-till drills over the years, but I can say without hesitation that the Ferminator is the most efficient and versatile seeding machine I’ve ever owned.
There’s something pretty satisfying about returning to a job and seeing those first green shoots coming through the ground. That’s when you know your hard work is paying off!
Just got my Buffalo Turbine! Love it. Took a little bit to get used to getting the right angle for the nozzle, but not a problem. Side note, works much better if the frame is level as much as possible.
Love it!

Seems to be in order delivery wasn't able to use lift gate but tractor was able to take pallet off the truck bed. No damage to machine after visual check. won't know how it runs until rain stops.
Staff at RippingitOutdoors was very quick to call and double check the type of backet needed for the unit to ensure the online order matched( to fit my skid steer quick attachment on my l2501 Kubota). Explained the teeth & belt could be ordered through them directly over the phone when/if needed as well as selling other types of custom made brackets for Utv's ect. All around Great customer service and would purchase from again.
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.
Very pleased. Product was better than anticipated and is working well.
I expect the 2000lb feeders to last at least a decade based on my use with cattle.
If feeding wild game would likely last a lifetime with minimal maintenance.
seeds come out way to fast at lowest setting when planting alfalfa literally the only reason I bought it now I can't even use it and I can't return it so I'm stuck with it for the price you pay you would think it would work!
It’s built solid. It handles Field grass hip high pretty well. With the maintaining the field grass after the first cut, the pasture field is starting to look like a lawn. The 84 inch with the best thing to get for 8 acres. It’s best to order belts for back up in the event if the belts were to break. But overall, I like the product quality is good.
When I think of ripping it outdoors something else comes to mind, but I digress. This spreader is awesome. Works like a champ. The hopper is big enough to do my 1 acre lot for my applications. Just load once and go. I would highly recommend this spreader. It saves a ton of time and is a quality product.
