Just got my new frontier grapple and installed the Summit diverter kit. Everything went well; however - when i curl the grapple opens. When I dump it closes. How do I reverse this?
Thanks for the help.

Just switch the lines where they connect on the front of the loader.

So I initially installed them like that but for some reason I wasn't getting the grapple to open or close either way....so I reversed them. But after I read your response I went and tried it again and it works perfect.
Thank you, I appreciate it.

A zip tie on one set of connectors will help to hook them up how you want from now on. Glad it was a simple fix for ya.

Colored electrical tape on the metal part of the hoses under the couplers also works.

I left space between the mount on the crossbar and the end of the couplers to make sure there was plenty of room for the fittings. I noticed in some vids they mounted them so close you wouldn't be able to use the connector.

Here is a link to the fat nylon zip ties similar to the one that are on the tractor at the front...Took me a while to find them. I did not like using skinny ones. I also got a big pack of colored zip ties from there. I wish I could find the the fat (1/2" wide) ones longer than 11.5" but figured if I had to I would put 2 together.

Thank you for sending that link, I appreciate it. I was actually just looking for these fat zip ties yesterday.
I also just saw one of your grapple pics on a different post - where did you get those hydraulic hose sleeves?

Amazon , here is a link. I used the 1.25" I got first all up. Went with the 1.5" they both can fit 2 hoses. the 1.5" may fit 3...but that is an odd number. 25' goes a long way. Use a butane lighter (One of the long ones) and carefully cut your length with that. I found that easier than a hot knife.

Thanks Mark, bookmarked that link. I think I might have found those but thought it was pricey for 25...

Much appreciated - that helps. I had found some but wasn't really sure what size to go with. Ordering some now.

Yeah , Wasn't sure myself until I tried it. Turns out it is very stretchy...I like the look of 2 hoses per mesh tube over the bigger mesh that comes with the tractor and holds 4 lines.
