EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENTS
FOR Wisconsin.
For Wisconsin woodlot and farm-access projects, decide whether the priority is sorting brush, gathering loose debris across a blade or retaining soil for excavation. Wet clods and loose fines behave differently, so explain the material and the finished surface before choosing tine spacing or bucket width.
Plan cleanup around what should stay on the ground.
Use this guide to compare tools for woodlot management · farm access · brush sorting. The state context below explains the applications; your machine, material and required finish determine the final attachment. These are selection recommendations, not statewide sales rankings.

Compare the task each attachment performs, then open the product to review its approved model, fitment, options and lead time.
1.5–70 ton excavators
Excavator Grapple Rake
Grip loose roots and branches while separating loose soil. Provide material photos and desired working width; cohesive clods may stay with the debris.

Built to dozer specifications
Dozer Rake
Gather exposed roots and loose brush during farm-access or property cleanup. Match the rake to the actual blade and the desired penetration.

1.5–70 ton excavators
Severe-Duty Digging Bucket
Retain and move soil when access preparation transitions into excavation. Provide width, capacity needs and material conditions so the bucket suits the carrier.
View product →CHOOSING FOR YOUR JOB
For a Wisconsin access project, should I prioritize a grapple rake or a digging bucket?
Choose around the material you need to keep. A grapple rake grips woody debris while letting loose soil pass through; a digging bucket retains soil for excavation and loading. Wet clods can limit separation, so share photos instead of relying on tine spacing alone. If cleanup covers a broad strip and a dozer is available, compare a blade-mounted rake for gathering loose material.
Skeleton bucket vs. digging bucket →BEFORE YOU
INQUIRE.
- Describe the intended finished access surface and which material should be retained.
- Include photos of typical brush, roots, soil clods and any rock mixed into the work.
- Specify the work season and whether the ground is loose, wet or frozen.
- Hydraulic hoses and lines are not included with hydraulic attachments; include machine hydraulic details when requesting a grapple quote.
- Always provide machine make and model, coupler type and required pin-on measurements. See the measurement guide →
