We finally moved out of the city in 2019 to start our Homestead in White Oak Ga. David is Active duty Navy and Kendall homeschools Wyatt, Carter, Holden & Reddington everyday. The boys and the birds keep us very busy around here trying to get this place up and running. Come check it out as we build our self-sufficient homestead, and find out that this life is rarely perfect and takes hard work but is well worth it.

We are off the Homestead headed North. Who are we going to see I wonder?

Met up with a friend the other day and we decided to run out setups together to compare their performance. Check out his videos @spmservicesclearingandmulc9821

Your not too far from me where outta Jacksonville and do concrete videos
I'm no expert, but that Kabota mulcher was tearing it up with more efficiency than the bobcat
Operator modifications
Are those machines Hi Flow?
61in L series
What size Loftness is that?
61in l series
Ok you got my subscription.
If only you could pick the boom up somehow. That hurt my knees. Lol
I was so busy jamming out to the music that I forgot to watch the video, what happened.
Are you still running the loftness mulcher on the kabota?
No have a T770 with s series battle axe now
@@themannstead2494What made you switch from a Kubota to a Bobcat, if you don’t mind me asking ?
Thanks for the review. I have an SSV 65 ordered and want the SC4060 for it
First, I understand upgrading to bigger, more powerful equipment. Two questions though: 1) did you have problems beyond size in power with the SVL 75-2? 2) did you consider the bigger SVL 97? Just trying to glean as much information because I’m considering the 75-3 and drum mulcher combination.
1. The 75-2 is an awesome machine my issue were, not enough lift capacity and needed more horse power. 2. the 97 didn't work for me because I wanted the remote control capability which only the bobcat offered. Looking I could have stayed with Kubota I don't use the remote but do like my Bobcat a lot. 3. If you plan to do production mulching 75 hp is not enough.
@@themannstead2494 just want to clarify what you mean by production mulching? Just any contracted clearing jobs? I’m considering doing some woodland restoration projects in the upper mid-west. Not full time, but contract work that fits in with other things I do. That would be predominantly honeysuckle and buckthorn removal (invasive woody shrubs small trees in our region) I totally understand that bigger is better, but I’m wondering if the 75-3 in combination with the loftness “L” is worthy of it?
Great video! I would love to see a video on sharpening the knife teeth.
Ok teeth are pretty small not but ill put one togeather when I get some time
I run a fecon and can tell you that it doesn’t look like they’re running it on high flow. Something doesn’t seem right. I can chew up trees like that in a few seconds with a John Deere 333g.. That Fecon head is a serious machine but you need to have high flow.
That's a 75 hp machine running the fecon head here so it's definitely not going to compare to your 333g
@@themannstead2494 I agree with you there. I have seen some guys running a Fecon on a 325g which is a 75hp machine and was pretty impressed with how well they ran. Not sure if there may be a problem with the one in this video. I was impressed with the Kubota and Loftness head. Actually came across this video because I have an opportunity to buy that exact same setup for a good deal and was curious about how it would run.
It’s not the HP it’s the flow ……I run the Fecon bullhog on my Kubota SVL 90-2 and with high flow it will sit down on a tree like that in seconds . Agreed , something is not right with the way that fecon is running.
Is your mulcher head a loftness 61 bsl?
Yes this one is
No music, please....
That Fecon head looks to be too much for that Bobcat.
His high flow pump went out about 2 weeks later so that was a big part of it
Do you like the Battle ax over the fecon? Also what series do you have for the battle ax
The head in this video is the L series. It's a standard flow head but works great on a 75hp machine in high flow. I have never run a fecon head so I can compare but I felt in here it outperformed the other machine. The big difference is the l series battle axe was specifically designed for this size machine and the fecon was not necessarily designed that way. Both have their strengths.
I have the s series on my new Bobcat. Just been so busy haven't made any videos. Just made on recently with The Stoney Ridge Farmer though if you want to check that one out
Amy thoughts on the battle ax against a comparable FAE on a 75 hp machine. I’m buying the Kubota 75-3 and want to find the best head for land clearing in south Florida
What was the cutting width of the battle ax and cost?
61in about 26k new
R these equipment for rent and how much.
I’m thinking the new 75-3 with that head could be surprisingly productive.
Nice looks like fun

Sick trailer David! I had to rent a similar trailer to haul my forklift a year or two ago and as fate would have it I didnt get the hitch pin in correctly and the trailer dropped while going down the road. The counterweight wheels burst straight through the deck lol and destroyed the jack and jack mounting area. Rental place was NOT happy. Your property looks killer.
Me and the wife were talking today that we need to do an into video, property tour etc. Lots going on here and I'm bad about making sure to pickup the camera. More coming soon.
I’m assuming you have your CDL? I’m trying to put a combo together to do non CDL equipment.
Great Video ...quick tip "having the blade behind you can help with the pushing down of the trees"
Would you get a mini ex or track loader if you could only have 1?
Thats the argument of the ages i think. issues is neither does the job of the other well its totally based on you needs. for a homestead a small tractor and a mini x would be the ticket i think now after some time with just the skidsteer
How do you find the quality of the SC6072 to be? I am considering the SC7072 for my SVL97-2.
Been grate. I have done a ton with it and only have 1 tooth that's just a tiny bit bent
Ended up buying the Bobcat T770 and kept my 6072. Run it in standard flow. Still a beast.
But my brush hog on my tractor could have dead cleared that, probably a little fast . But I love the 75-2, I’m wailing on my brand new 75-3. Going to run a Fecon mulching head on it. And keep the trailer for brush hogging and grapple work.
Looking forward to more videos with that SVL75 and the Battle_AX. There's not much info out there regarding low-flow mulchers on the 75 and seeing them in action is awesome.
Got a couple tings coming up hopefully ill be able to get some footage
I agree not enough info on a lower flow skidsteer setup.
Do you have any issues with the hydraulics overheating while running the mulcher?
So far I haven't seen water temp above the half way mark, summer in GA will be the test though
Great video, I plan on purchasing the same battle axe for my 75!
Good choice!
Let’s do it again soon. Nice video.
Yeah for sure
