[25] Pulling a Giant Ash Stump (Kubota BX23s & Bobcat e45)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- To finish off the grading in the front of the yard, the last item I had to get rid of is a giant ~3' ash stump. Most of the prep work was done with the bx23s, but in the end some more power was required to flip the stump from it rootball.
THANK YOU! you're the first guys I've seen using the tiny backhoe in a way that makes sense. Well done.
These guys are more proficient with those machines than many are with their hands. Cool to watch in time lapse.
You may have started the project as an amateur, but you finished as a professional. Great job!!
You learned real quick on something you had never used before. Nice job.
Thanks! Having used the backhoe for hundreds of hours definitely helped in getting used to the controls of the excavator.
Fantastic job..You really handled the machine really well. It's amazing the difference between the two machines.
I love it. I have a stump that I was trying to get with a bucket on my small tractor. I cut the roots with the saw all but the stump was stuck. The more I dug the more the tractor got stuck. Watching you take care of it with the backhoe was great. The way you got the rocks out of the roots was so cool. It was like watching machine porn. I sure wish that I had a backhoe. You did a great job on the video and the stump removal.😮😮😮🤨🤨🤨😀😀😀😀😎😎😎
Nice work. I like that root cutting attachment. Glad you got to use an excavator! Some rental places don't you using their excavator around roots because idiots misuse them and break cylinders. Makes it tough for everyone else. Thanks for sharing.
PHENOMENAL!!! You are an expert sir!
For a while it was like a Navy trainee scrubbing the dock with a toothbrush.
Amazing how much resistance a big old stump in the ground can give hydraulic equipment. Those rocks were probably there for millions of years.
Was glad to see you get out the root ripper early on! One of my favorite add ons to my bx23s! Looks like you switched to the heavier piece of equipment to finally contend with this giant stump!
Great job, you handled that E45 like a pro 👍🏻
Thanks! 👍
Great little machines, they will do just about any job with patience. I'm getting ready to dig up a stump with my 23, but It's in loose sandy soil, and the stump isn't nearly as big as that one. Thanks for sharing !
Switching to the bobcat is like getting your bossing character when something just won't die in PoE

Not going to lie that was a pretty cool video man. I can totally see how you'd be addicted to that power because of the time savings
For sure, and now I have something of similar power! So hard to go back to the smaller machine.
You darn near had it with the little how.
Hope you are well EE! Miss you man. Stay safe
Thanks man, same to you!
Piece of advice for when running the mini. Learn to run it revved all the way up at full idle.
Beau travail je lève mon chapeau 🌴
Bravo, My Friend.....Bravo!
That’s really nice work, but you could have had a guy come out with a stump grinder and had it done in less than an hour.
Due to how much I wanted to adjust the grade there, along with how many rocks were embedded in that stump, it would have been a nightmare trying to grind that thing. Plus, I got to do a whole bunch more work with the excavator rental on my property than just pulling this stump.
I have an L2501 with the BH77. It has a little more oomph to it than the 603 but not much. Get as close as you can and dig a circular trench to China. They will fall over under their own weight. The E45 looks like fun too! Unless you need to mow grass, pick up a load of dirt, or grapple a thicket of branches.
For sure, the bx23s is a great machine for so many various tasks. I am really looking to get a mini ex however!
His Mate comes over...'What you doing..?' 'Pulling that Tree Stump out'. Mate goes and sits on Tree Stump........
Easy way to move that stump. Run up to it with the blade. Grab the back side with the bucket. Lift both at the same time. And walk anywhere you want with stumps bigger then that. Wish I still had my B27. Have a Wood BK7500 on my Kubota now. But its like a toy compared to the excavator.
Hi there you should plant some apple 🍎 and pear trees with a peach trees pecan 🎄🌴
Looks like a good bonfire. Smores
I pulled a big white for tree about the same size. I can tell you that root ripper would have been very valuable to have
Nice job man
Thanks! Same to you and your jobs, you make loader work look easy
@@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC Thanks man! Your pretty damn good yourself! Us guys gotta stick together haha. Keep up the great work.
Will do. look forward to more of your projects!
Outstanding!
What is the ripper tooth product info? that looks to be doing an amazing job

It is amazing how much more power and cutting you can do with it. I can use it like a hacksaw as well on the larger roots.
feeling stupid...I cheered when it came loose lol
Ha I did too honestly, it was a tough one to get out!
Very nice work
Song at 19:34? That is awesome beat
I see you had fun with the backhoe
What's the problem with the e45? Looks like you have been running it forever! My only experience is that you get more from curling the bucket than you do with pulling with the arm? But that was my only experience. Just goes to show you, " the older you get, the bigger more expensive the toys are! Am I right? Dammit boy, you sure look like you know what your doing!
There were no problems with it, I meant that as a sarcastic joke in that it'll be tough to go back to using the bx23s backhoe after using that thing! I hope to get myself one of those someday soon!
I figured that, but was I right? I only ever borrowed one, once, and I noticed I didn't have much pull with the arm, but curling the bucket was a little easier? Have a nice New Year!
Correct. On backhoe/excavator arms, you have the most force on the bucket curl due to the ratio of lever arms to implement, as compared to the boom or stick. And same to you!
Wow. Standing right at the edge of the road, not a good idea. Drivers have been known to swerve
I have a b2650. I will never understand why people insist on busting up small equipment on jobs that require something much bigger. I rent a trackhoe for jobs like this and use my tractor for all the back filling.
That is why I ended up renting the larger machine, but was looking to see how far I could get with the machine I owned first.
What is that attachment and where can I get it?
Just found this channel, have subscribed and watching. Damn you do more with less. You’d be damn good/fast/scary with more HP and a grapple, not to mention a box blade. Or heck, just a serious excavator.
Thanks! The plan is to get an excavator!
I watch your present vids and compare them to you in these older ones. Everything you do you deserve because the accomplishments you have achieved with just this piece of machinery and some rented here and there, presuming after you recent skid steer purchase you will be unstoppable. Keep up the great work.
I've done this with a bigger piece of equipment on a smaller tree stump and it's a tremendous amount of work. While that tractor can do it so can a shovel you're probably better off renting a bigger piece of equipment for the day to get this one done.
if the thumb was used in this job, everything would get done a lot quicker saving extra time, fuel etc
You clearly don't know what you're talking about
nice job, I just subscribed
Thanks!
Класс люблю такую технику, все четко так.
Gute Baggerfahrer.

How are you liking your BX? I'm on the fence ... should i gitt me one?
Personally, it has done everything Ive expected of it and more. You can see most all of the tasks Ive put it through and Im around 270 hours in on it now. I haven't had any failures on it thus far. I would definitely recommend getting one if you are looking to do similar tasks, or even using it for other utility work.
Just wondering if you called BEFORE YOU DUG you didn’t mention it if you did kudos but anything you dig up you own and that gets expensive
I know of three homeowners that no longer own their home cause of the big fat lean or judgment not sure what it’s called actually what I’m saying is it takes a few minutes to call 811 then you’re off the hook if you hook a utility and I’m here to tell you they run utilities in the strangest places
Awwsome job. You handle that machine unbelievably Can you tell me where you got that saw attachment? Ty
Bxpanded
Roots not only go out, like a line, do they?😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍👍
What would be a fair price to charge for that job? Did you get rid of the stump and rocks?
Well, this was done at my own house, but if I were to do this as a job it would be the cost of getting + operating an excavator for a day plus disposal fees (all of which are different per area). In my area that would easily put you over a grand to get a stump like this out bidding it out to a contractor.
Need to look at getting a root ripper from B-xpanded.
? I use one in this video within the first few minutes
I think he meant "he" needs to look into one. I live in the Shire also, lots of trees to remove. I explain my property as rocks, roots and a handful of dirt!
What is that attachment that you were using and where can I get it. Is that like a ripper claw? Is it by the company EXpanded? Is it worth it? Thanks mate... Great vid 👍
Its the BXpanded Ripper. You can get one here: www.bxpanded.com/BX-bh-ripper
It works great for giving the backhoe more power on roots and stumps!
Victory!
Who makes that ripper and where did you get it?
It is made by BXpanded. They make a whole bunch of different subcompact tractor attachments. Been quite happy with what Ive purchased from them!
How long did that take
It was ~1 day messing around with the tractor and then like 30 minutes with the excavator to finish it off. If I had just started with the excavator, it probably would been around ~1 hour to pull that stump.
@@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC i have a b2601 with back hoe. Have similar task coming up.. just trying to guage what to expect.
Thanks.
Enjoy your videos, what is the music around 22:30? Thanks!

How long did it take you to get that stump out?
Well, we spent a good day just messing around with the BX (before I was considering renting a machine) and then around 20 minutes with the E45 to finish it up.
@@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC figured as much. Every tool has its limits. Debating on getting a bx23s, but concerned about the backhoe limitations. Great for small work etc.
Yeah, it has done excellent on almost everything I ask of it. The backhoe will certainly do work. I have taken out many 12" stumps with it, but it all depends on their location/soil conditions.

How long did it actually take you. Impressed with your work
I think it was messing around with the bx for a day and then about 30 mins with the e45.
Ash more like ass. loooollll Nice.
ecks DEE

SIZE DO MATTER
How much did you charge for digging that out?
It was at my own house! So it cost me haha
Johnson Jeffrey Jackson Scott Young Cynthia
Get your utilities located, kids, that ripper will do a great job on them too . . .
Yep! Don't worry, this is my property and have had my utilities marked!
Would have been a lot better video without the music, that shit run me crazy
Hell of a stump for that small excavator. Sure beats hand digging the stump out. But still you needed a sawsall as well. Very nice price for the bobcat. Hope you had fun I know this was your first time. Keep on going.
Yeah, could have gotten away without using the sawzall if I had known I was going to rent that excavator in the first place! thanks!
It,s like painting your house eith a tooth brush😢
I was just wondering if digging a really deep hole and then put that stump and broken roots and those large rocks down deeper and then cover with the soil to get rid of them all
That excavator looks powerful enough to get them deep enough
Ken in Florida
You can do that, however that does lead to a mess down the road as stump holes hold water and break down after a number of years. Id rather not have that on my property, plus, I had bedrock about 2' below the surface of my property. So not much deep digging to be had!
why not just use a stump grinder?
I have dug up stumps as big as my L35 Kubota and she even carried them,,,you need to grease your machine to much metal clanking
I grease it every use, pins are all tight and covered. The quick coupler for the backhoe bucket has movement in it on the quick attachm pin, that is what might be causing clanking.
Nice job. How long did it take you on the little one? And how long on the excavator? Thanks!
It was something like a day with the bx messing with the outer roots and then less than 30 minutes with the excavator.
A job well done :)
How much you pay for that kubota digger
It was somewhere in the low 20s USD new
what is that music at 13 minute mark? Catchy tune.

@@CarlsonSonLandscapingLLC Had to watch this again, you are quite a good operator on that excavator. You could make a darn good living running these machines.
Ha thanks!
