The T25 continues to impress. Though that mulcher is a little to much for all the time use, it would get the job done in a pinch. Would like to see a slightly smaller version of the mulcher for subcompact tractors. I think it would be a hit. Great job, and God Bless.
I totally agree with your comments.
I think the mulcher he is using is the smallest they offer, they go up in size and of course weight from there.
Ran it better than I expected but I would definitely go with a flail mower and hammer blades on that tractor.
@@EOTG_AK Flail mower for sure. Was kind of going back and forth between a rotary cutter and flail mower, but I think I'll get the flail mower, its a lot shorter implement sticking out the back of the tractor, and it'll take care of everything I'd need a mower like that for and not have 5+ feet of mower sticking out the back LOL. Flail mower is about 3x more expensive but I really have no use for a rotary cutter for what I'm doing, the flail mower will easily take care of the pasture and rough terrain cutting that would tear up a finish mower.
@@EOTG_AK I completely agree.
Man! The TYM and the Baumalight both did great!
You bet!
I am also impressed on how well the T25 handled the mulcher. Great camera angles showing how well the mulcher works. 👍
Thank you. Tanja uses a long lens on her camera to get those shots.
Now we know the answer. I’m one of the viewers that asked for this report, so thanks Tony. I’m still waiting for delivery of my RK25, been almost 6 months. In that timeframe the price on the TLB package w grapple has gone up $2,400+. Thankfully my price is locked in.
Sir, This video was made for you! I am glad your price is locked in.
@@TonysTractorAdventure You take good care of me Chief, thanks.
I love this attachment man, it’s rock solid!
Yes Sir. I seen you working yours the other day.
I agree with you Tony the T25 did good for the size of the tractor but that mulcher may be a little big for it. It still impressive how much you can do with the smaller tractors now days. Thanks for another great video!!
We are on the same page! 👍
Ain't no problem for a mulcher doing real good I love it just go slow and easy and you can rest assure even the smallest attractors will surprise you keep up the good work
Thank you. I am really impressed.
Thanks for another great video Tony! 25HP seems to be the sweet spot for compact/sub-compact tractors. For someone like me who is shopping for the right tractor to buy, videos like this are very helpful to decide what is the right tractor and what capabilities it has for attachments. I love the offset flail and that has pushed me out of sub-compacts. I don't know if a forestry mulcher would be in the cards or not, but it is nice to know that my pick would be capable of using one.
I am glad it helps some. Thank you too.
If you have the space buy a larger one than you need. I bought a Kubota BX2680 because of the space limitations I have for my own use, and I'm quickly finding out they have quite the little niche for small property side jobs because of its very small size, it'll fit where a lot of other tractors can't fit purely due to their size.
Tony, I agree with what your saying about the size of the tractor. I did notice that you were coming in kind of low to the ground when you backed into the debris. You might try raising the grinder up a couple of inches back, just far enough so the tires don't run over it, then lower it and take it on down. Ya'll have a blessed day.
It throws too much stuff raising it more than an inch or so off the ground. I am going to buy the guard kit.
Another great video Tony! That piece of equipment works very well. I’m really surprised it does that kind of job on the smaller tractor, very impressive. 👍🏻
The little T25 impressed me again as well. So much power for the size.
It handled it really well, I think. As long as it goes slow. Good test Tony! 👍
Thank you. It works for sure.
I think overall that smaller unit did a fine job in clearing that area out. I hope your storm that's coming isn't going to be a bad one. See you next time. M.C.
It did a good job. See you next time.
This is an impressive video. I wish a lot of our customers would go thie route instead of trying to push the trees out with the loader. The results are bent loader frame and broken fastners.
This mulcher is an excellent match behind the T474.
Another great demonstration Tony. Surprised how well it worked on a smaller tractor (like mine). Enjoyed.
I was impressed with how it worked as well. Still not sure it is a perfect match for the T25, but it will work.
They're certainly right proud of them things. I'd say a 30hp would probably make a night and day difference on a compact tractor, like a B2920 instead of a 1025R size, but still the undercarriage issues is what keeps me from considering one. You'd have to plate everything under the tractor to consistently use one. Heck, I get worried about stuff slinging under my tractor with just a bush hog in thick brush.
I ordered the guard kit.
I was considering getting one of these for my 574. We have allot of area that needs a masticator and the local guys are 3-4k per acre. I'm not sure that it would be worth it though because it is questionable even with chains if the tractor could climb the hills some are very steep, tracks are almost a requirement. I'm confinement I can get allot of it though. It helps being in our state forrest ag program as it is a requirement to clean the land up, but it saves thousands yearly on taxes.
Please check out some of our latest mulching videos. I took it on some hills in tight spaces. ua-cam.com/video/pURAqjbelEA/v-deo.html
Tanja, you are so good with the camera! You make Tony look good!! 🤣🤣 Lol
That's right. Ain't no shame in it.
Amen, Brother! Keep on, and God bless!!
Hahaha “It takes a trained idiot.” That just fit so well today. Great video. I’d love to get my hands on one of those some day.
Thank you. I was impressed with the setup.
Awesome video, I had a yanmar 424 and just upgraded to the yt235, I’d love to have one of these mulchers for my property. The 25hp did surprisingly well. I’m sure the 35hp would do just fine.
Yes it would.
My T-25 has some serious grunt for a small tractor. I looked at a few sub-compacts before buying my T-25 and not much can compare. It's more like a smaller compact tractor than a sub-compact. It has some big tractor features in a small package.
I agree 100%
Yeah, its a compact tractor not a sub-compact LOL...same with John Deere's 1 series, they're a bit larger than a sub-compact, but not really a compact.
I'm really impressed with that little tractor and how well it performs with most all the tasks you throw at it. And the way it handles that mulcher was really impressive to. Keep up the awesome work tony and Tonya keep him in line lol. God bless guys
God Bless you too! Thank you
Have you done any testing of any of the forax front mounted mulchers? They have a 14hp foraxgp40 mulcher that is stand alone independent of the tractor that has a gas motor that goes on the front i see on a few UA-cam videos
I have not seen them. Interesting!
As always enjoy your videos keep them coming God bless and stay safe
Thank you Bill. God Bless
Impressive machine!
Agreed
A little more horsepower would definitely help but impressive that it ran it at all
Well done
I agree 100%
Hey, another great video. Hope you weathered the storms ok. Agree that you need a little larger tractor to run that mulcher. Seems to have trouble spinning up with that smaller tractor. If that were my only tractor I wouldn't run the mulcher. Think there would be too much wear and tear on the tractor. Also adding chains to catch debris is a great idea. These are a lot of things under your tractor that could be damaged by flying debris.
I don't think I will add the chain system.
dude that thing is awesome!
Not bad on the T25, but it is a beast on the T474.
I've got a 30HP John Holland. And bushy scrubby land. Not as bad as this but lots of sticks that fall from trees. This might be a good option.
I think it would be fine. You would have to move slowly, but it would always beat doing it by hand😁
I use the same mp348 with a John Deere 3038E with no problems.
That is a much bigger tractor than the T25. The JD 3038E is like one size down from my T474. I can see how that would be good fit.
Love it Tony!
Thank you
That t25 is a stud. Ide buy one today to replace my kubota if it died.
The Kubota is a good tractor. It will be around for years.
Works pretty well if you ask me.
I agree, it worked much better than I expected. The T25 impresses me almost daily.
Should use some of that debris to make some Hugelkultur raised beds for the green house or around on the property. Might be a better use than burning it, but a giant bonfire is always fun. Let me know when the marshmellows are ready.
Looks like the t25 did decent, but it's definitely better suited for your bigger tractor. I don't think you had near the bogging down or waiting for the RPM to come back up with it.
I agree. The T474 is a better match.
Hy Tony nice job
Thank you, my friend.
It's not a first choice pairing agreed, but it would probably do ok in snowberry, heavy bramble, ivy and the like if you didn't have access to a brushcutter.
I agree. I will do a little more testing. It would be great for trail touch ups.
Would really be nice if they would make a smaller unit geared more for the sub compact market. My land is very hilly, and i wouldnt wanna put that much stress and strain on my little t25, as its the only tractor i have. However, i am looking at the forestry mulchers that go on the front of a skid steer. Put one of those on the Cat 287b, and now we be in business.
They make several versions for skid steers.
I’m wondering if my Yanmar 425 with 23.9 HP and 18.1 HP at the PTO would handle this? You said you had 18 HP at the PTO. So does my Yanmar. I’m just worried about the recovery rate with 1.1 less HP.
Not the horsepower that I had an issue with. Obviously 25 horsepower is not as effective as a 48 horsepower tractor. However it did work. The problem is, the mulcher weighs a thousand pounds. When you get on the slightest hill the tail wags the dog. I think it would be the exact same thing for you.
Mulching in reverse, sure does kick up dust and dirt for the engine's air intake, doesn't it?
Now I wish I had more power in my tractor, because I could sure use a Mulcher like on my property.
It didn't kick any dust up. I have learned to mulch after rain. Much better. I find it worse to mow forward in high grass. It clogs the radiator up.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Good idea to mulch after a rain, but I did see a lot of 'air borne' debris as you reversed into the wooded area, did I not?
Here look at the video from mark 6:11 onwards, is that dust? ( Not this is to disagree with your video content, but I can assure you that there is dust in the air under and towards the front of your tractor here.)
Nothing that worries me. Mowing in the summer is much worse.
@@TonysTractorAdventure OK then.
So PTO HP on the T25 is 18.3, and I just got a Kioti with 19.5. So theoretically I should get the same or better results 🤔
Hold up off the ground and it will cut better the first pass. Then a second if needed.
I am not a big fan of cutting off the ground
Would a cab be safer, any big chunks flying around?
Not really. The way it is designed, it is about impossible for something to come up at the operator with force. A cab in the woods is a great way to replace $1000 glass. I would love a cab, but I don't think it would work for what I do.
It’s crazy how baumalight has almost doubled in price in 2 years
Everything has doubled in the last two years.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I wonder what has happened in the last two years that made everything turn to crap? 🤔
Joe took over and we don’t make anything here anymore.
Tony That was awesome loved seeing the mulcher on the t25 slow and steady with the little tractors right 2 questions 1 do they make a smaller mulcher that might be better suited for the t25 although it did really good with the one you had and 2 was wondering how the t25 did on temperature
Bill, the temp, ran normally the entire time. This is the smallest mulcher they make.
@@TonysTractorAdventure thanks for letting me know that I was really impressed with what it did I could really have some fun with a setup like that on my property
thanks for the video! Do you know price for mulcher? I couldn't find anywhere
Nevermind I found it on their website !
Kubota's BX-Series has around 680 pound lift capacity from the 3 point. That mulcher weighs almost as much as the BX LOL. Don't think I'd even want something like that, maybe behind a Kubota LX or L series, but a BX or a B series wouldn't be large enough or heavy enough to handle that thing.
If you took the loader off your TYM you'd need some serious front weights to keep the front end of that tractor on the ground LOL. Looks like that mulcher did real well though, but I don't like how it throws stuff up under the tractor, could potentially damage stuff on the tractor.
I was just trying to answer the Kubota BX people's questions. I get a lot of comments asking if the BX will handle this thing.
@@TonysTractorAdventure No it won't. Easy to answer without it even hooked up to a tractor, all you gotta do is look at the weight specs on the manufacturer's website and you could easily find out, nope won't work LOL.
What tire pressure do you run for your front/back tires?
About 12psi. Better traction
@@TonysTractorAdventure 12 in the back? What about the fronts?
If it was me / id raise it up a little when in reverse. Then back as far as I can. Then lower it to almost ground level and forward back out. Basically make 2 passes at 2 different heights, thereby making the engine work a little less. Awesome job though
Fair enough!
you did great i enjoy your videos woudnt it be so mu more fun if you had power to spare say 60 hp thanks
The unit is only rated to 50hp.
Not bad for 25 HP tractor. But 35 HP or bigger would be better production.
Agree
Impressive for a 25hp machine; but a bit of a mismatch in power vs capability.
Absolutely
OK MY FRIEND..HOW ABOUTE YOUR NECK.??? AFTER 8 HOURS OF WORK..I NEED TO KNOW ,THANK YOU
This is not meant to be an 8-hour day machine. This is meant to be for a do-it-yourselfer or a small time landscapers doing small jobs. There is no such thing as one size fits all.
It seems a rough flail mower could do better?
Not on its best day. I have two flail mowers and they are great. Still, watch some of our other videos with this mulcher behind our 48hp tractor. It is spot on bad to the bone.
I think the tractor's a little underpowered for that device and the way it throws debris under the tracker is scary I have rocky grounds so that wouldn't work in my situation
I am going to get the chain guard kit.
What dog breed is the black and white do?
Mutt
How do you think the t264 will do
I think the T264 would do as good or better than the T25. The T264 feels a tiny bit stronger.
Wow, surprising answer.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Exactly what I was looking for, you are the best.
Thank you for showing over Wt. Tool on a smaller front end loader home use tractor. Please keep your wonderful DOG away from flying waste. Would hate to see that great dog for your property put out of service as a Guard.
Gizmo is fine. I always keep an eye out.
@@TonysTractorAdventure
GIZMO wishes you could meet BLAZE my mini Australian Shepherd. I think they would have a ball in those woods. Your place looks great. Love that Boom truck set up you have.
Thank you.
You're scraping too low to the ground. You are lucky there aren't any rocks.
Not having rocks has nothing to do with luck. When we retired we looked all over. Our last place was just about all rock and it made it miserable to build anything.
Seems like a lot to mulch leaves and dirt...a few branches...not efficient enough.
Ok
Those are 20k attachments
You are price guessing but stating it as a fact.
You asked for an opinion, that tractor seems fine with it but the implement itself is a no go for me, too much debris and dirt thrown forward for the tractor and you to ingest and that constant looking back will wreck havoc on your neck in a hurry You could not do this long. Lots better ways to do this.
As always, I appreciate your feedback. I think I will buy the chain guard for the mulcher, but overall, this mulcher is a game changer for me. I have cleared more land in a month, than I cleared in 6 months without it.
@@TonysTractorAdventureI have a skidsteer with disc mulcher i use but I find it probably cheaper and much faster to just pay someone to mulch. That is what we do now, a week at a time. Three weeks they cleaned out 29 acres
I am glad that it works for you.
For 10 k. Ain’t gonna happen.
They can't make them fast enough. It is happening everyday by smart people who can see the positive income stream.
@@TonysTractorAdventure well for money makers I can see. I’m just a hobby hackin land owner. lol.
Look at it this way. I have people standing in line to buy this thing. I could clear everything and sell it for a little less than it cost to buy. By the way, I apologize for my prior comment. After rereading it, I sounded like a jerk. Heck, I am a jerk sometimes, but I am working on it. LOL!
What no ear protection, no eye protection! Not impressed!
Good thing I don't live to impress you.
