Grapple hits cupplers when fully open

[333G]

Recently purchased a 2023 John Deere 333G. It is equipped with the Stucchi cuppler upgrade because we were told that the much head would run better with it. the mulch head works great but everytime I put the grapple attachment on and open it fully it pinches the hoses and they blow. I have tried many ways to avoid this but nothing seems to be working.

well sounds like you either have to move the cupplers so things don;t hit, or get a different designed grapple bucket, or make modifications to it
when they design bucket , they tend to make the for a one size fits all, but unfortunately, that some times, means you have to modify to have them work right for you!
