Product Overview
The TGEC box-style rock picker is a hopper-type attachment built to sweep rocks from farm fields, construction lots, and pasture ground. A rotating tine reel lifts rocks from the soil and deposits them into a large-capacity hopper; the full-open rear door dumps the entire load quickly into piles or hauling equipment.
Model TG-RP1830(72IN)-MP1140 delivers a 1,830 mm (72 in) working width, a 1,200 kg safe working load, and bi-directional rotation for clearing material in forward or reverse. The 1-inch thick high-carbon steel tines and No. 60 heavy-duty roller chain drive handle continuous field work. For operations that need soil screening alongside rock collection, our rotary rock picker offers a drum-based alternative. Browse the full Skid Steer Rock Pickers category for the complete lineup.

How It Works
Hydraulic flow from the skid steer auxiliary circuit drives a heavy-duty roller chain that rotates the tine reel at the front of the hopper. The tines sweep through the soil, lifting rocks and debris up and over the reel into the collection hopper while soil falls back through the tine gaps. Bi-directional rotation lets the reel run in reverse to clear jams or work in tight spaces, and the full-open hopper door releases the entire load in one motion when the skid steer arms raise the attachment.
Application Scenarios
Agricultural field rock removal before planting and tilling
Construction site cleanup and lot preparation
Pasture and rangeland rock collection for livestock safety
Road base and driveway preparation
Land reclamation and post-demolition debris sorting
Orchard floor cleanup and vineyard row maintenance
Farm drainage field and tile line rock clearance
Installation & Mounting
The TG-RP1830(72IN)-MP1140 mounts to any standard skid steer universal quick-attach plate (MP1140) without adapters. Connect the auxiliary hydraulic couplers to the picker's motor circuit, confirm that flow and pressure match the 75 L/min and 21 MPa specifications, and cycle the reel in both directions before entering the field. For machines with high-flow auxiliary circuits, install a pressure-reducing valve or set the in-cab flow limiter to avoid overspeeding the chain drive.
Wear & Service
The highest-wear components on a box-style rock picker are the tines, the roller chain, and the hopper floor. Inspect tines for bending or cracking before each shift, and check chain tension every 50 operating hours by deflecting the chain midway between sprockets. Lubricate all grease points daily, and inspect hydraulic hoses for abrasion near the mounting frame. Replace worn tines in matched sets to maintain balanced rotation, and keep spare chain links and hydraulic couplers on hand for field repairs.
OEM & Bulk Supply
TianGe supplies the box-style rock picker as a standard model and supports OEM customization including private-label branding, custom paint colors, alternative mounting plates, and modified tine spacing. Dealer and distributor bulk orders ship in consolidated containers with volume pricing, and each unit undergoes pre-shipment inspection including hydraulic pressure testing and reel rotation verification.
