How To Determine Which Model of Nursery Jaws To Choose
By asking the right questions, you can easily determine which Nursery Jaws best fit your operation. For example, a small landscaper with a 1200lb lift capacity loader does not need a Nursery Jaws 2. Conversely, a large wholesaler with a 3000 lbs. capacity loader should not have a Nursery Jaws Jr. There are a few exceptions to every rule, but here are a few guidelines to follow.
- What material s will the NJ Hybrid handle? Up to 60" B&B, 32" boxes, plastic containers, grow-bags and boulders.
- Loader requirements? 1500-3000lbs rated capacity
- Characteristics of the NJ Hybrid? Load, move and plant B&B, boxed and container trees, boulders and move pallets. Manually adjustable pivot point allows for wider and narrower parallel spacing than the Nursery Jaws 2.

Do I need to upgrade to pressure relief fittings? My opinion is yes. Attachments can build pressure from the machines they are on or weather from sitting. With a standard fitting the only way to release pressure is to crack a hydraulic line. This can hurt someone or create a mess that can damage vegetation.
- Do I need flow control or a manual valve? In most cases no. You add this option if you are worried that your operators will crush the products by not controlling the speed of the attachment.
- Do I need a Box style paddle? In most cases no. You only add this option if the material you handle are contained in boxes. This is mostly done in CA.
