Hi SWB, the U1750 in the picture currently doesn't tow the bc2000 its towed with the u1600 crane mog which has an uprated engine fitted and tows it well even on the hills, the u1750 is eventually going to have its engine upgraded it also needs airlines fitted for the brakes and some form of 3 point linkage.

The grab is handy on the BC2000 but i feel a decent loader like the avant is the way forward when feeding a big chipper, its far more versatile, although it does mean another bit of kit to drag around. MR Ed sells a grab attachment for mini loaders which i've used to drag and feed other big chippers with.
