TMG Industrial TMG-SDR72 72" Root Debris Rake
Overview
The TMG-SDR72 is a 72-inch skid steer root debris rake for land clearing, property cleanup, and site preparation. Reinforced curved weld-on teeth comb the ground without deep digging, making it effective for removing surface roots, rocks, and debris from forestry sites, demolition yards, and acreage cleanup. The 3x3-inch primary cross beam frame is powder-coated for rust and corrosion resistance. Built-in 25-inch kickstands on each side let you set the rake down upright when not in use. At 510 lbs it stays well within most machines' usable payload. Universal SSQA mount. Carrier range: 30–50 HP skid steers.

Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You clear brush, saplings, slash, and debris that a bucket can't grip
- You work on land clearing, right-of-way maintenance, or post-harvest cleanup
Skip if
- You move dense solid loads like rock, sand, or gravel — a grapple loses material through the tines
- Your primary task is loading trucks — a GP bucket is faster for dense material
Also consider
- Industrial grapple if you also handle large rocks or demolition debris
- Stump grinder if stump removal is part of the job
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

TMG Industrial imports and distributes a broad range of construction attachments from its Canadian warehouses, offering competitive pricing with delivery across Canada. A popular choice for contractors who want solid value without long lead times.
Care & Maintenance
- Grease all pivot points every 8 hours of operation — this single habit extends service life more than any other maintenance step
- Inspect tines for bending or cracking after use in rock or demolition debris — bent tines cause uneven closing force and can fail under load
- Check hydraulic hose connections and fittings weekly — grapple hoses take more abuse than most attachments due to constant jaw cycling near rough material
- Inspect cylinder pins and bushings monthly; sloppiness in the jaws indicates worn bushings, not just general age — replace before the pin starts wearing the bore
- Store with jaws closed to reduce stress on the frame and keep the hinge pivot pins from accumulating debris
How to Connect
- Mount using same Bob-Tach process as buckets
- Connect hydraulic couplers (depressurized — release aux hydraulics first)
- Verify open/close direction at idle before working
- Test grapple open/close 3× before lifting any load
