Hello everyone! I just got my 84" Faver grapple set up on my Takeuchi TL150. I followed the instructions from Faver as to how to measure for the hose lengths to use on my machine. I installed the hoses last night and found an issue with the hoses catching on the bottom of my boom after I tilt all the way forward. When I roll the grapple back they get hung up. I temporarily zip tied the hoses together and threw a rubber bungee around the hoses and the boom to try and keep them from traveling under the boom again.
I was just wondering how everyone else routes there hoses on their machine and even better, if their is anyone that has the Faver on a Takeuchi.
I also found that my right side grapple claw hits the big grab handle on the boom (really not sure what these are there for anyway!) when it is fully opened up and tilted back. The left side doesn't hit because the handle is already bent on that side. Any thoughts? I am thinking I have to come up with a "stop" of some sort so I don't constantly hit it while I'm moving material.
Thanks!
