Homeowner Scott needed a large stump removed from his landscaping close to his house. We use the 260B Backhoe and new hydraulic thumb on the John Deere 1025R (Johnny) to remove it. Homeowners are often wonder if they should remove a stump or grind it down to below ground level. In this case, removing was the best solution.

Nice job TTWT always nice seeing John Deere at work my johnny just rolled over 2700 hours today still purring like a kitten

@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups 5 лет назад

Glad to see the thumb is working good for you guys. Not every day you see a thumb on a little tractor, perty neat.

@richpicone7788 5 лет назад

You guys really have found a good niche with the jobs you do. I wish we had someone like you around here. Working with your customers a lot of the time, it’s a perfect set up.

@lstidham2008 3 года назад

Because of your videos I went to my local John Deere dealer and ordered me a 2020, 1025r TLB with a 54 inch mower deck and 12 in posthole digger. I can’t wait for it to come in and to start all the projects you do. My girlfriend just perched 34 archers and I have 2 archers and I hope this is enough tractor to do the jobs I have ahead of me lol but from your videos I think I found the right brand of tractor!!!!

Try turning the backhoe all the way to one side when loading, but don't forget it and hit the trailer. That looks like a nice simple what to work a thumb. Thanks for sharing.

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

It is the frame that hits...doesn’t matter if hoe is turned sideways

When I bought my 1025r I also had the hydraulic thumb added. First job I found it useful for was loading cut up 18 inch long oak logs into the back of my pick up for delivery to a friend who heats with wood. They were pretty heavy and it saved our backs! He still gets to split them.

@Shawn-rq4py 5 лет назад

Looks easy enough. It opens and closes just fine without having to pull another lever. Seems like it’s intuitive just working with the motion of the bucket. I wish now I’d have went ahead and got that option w my backhoe attachment.

@gidzey4783 3 года назад

Burning Bushes Tim, and for a landscaper like myself, I cringe when I have to remove them. Hopefully my new 1025R will make this kind of task a bit easier! This almost makes me excited about my next tear out and how much easier it’ll be with my 1025r as opposed to a spade and ax. A thumb definitely will be in my future.

@akbychoice 5 лет назад

I see JD has added features for the backhoe attachment that’s found on larger backhoe loaders. That stump might be good to offer to a wood worker, possibly to make a bowl out of it.

@bdp3502 5 лет назад

Hi Tim. What you are going to find out is that with that narrow bucket the thumb doesn’t let you dig very deep because the thumb is wider than the bucket and hits the sides of your ditch. Mostly the collars for the bucket pin. Hope to see if you have that same problem. Thanks for the great videos. Have a good day.

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

Yes, the thumb is wider than the 8” bucket...narrower than the 12” bucket.

@benc.7446 5 лет назад

Great video. Not sure the expense of the hydraulic thumb would be worth it for me especially since it is not fully independent, (plus I only use my machine for little stuff around the house😊). Also, the departure angle is likely a bit less as it does stick out a couple inches further out than the 260 BH.

@mikegraziano1562 3 года назад

I know this is an old video but if anyone is thinking of doing this two things...ck to make sure nothing is going under the bush like a gas line, water line or sewer pipe, roots can get wrapped around them. Second put a sheet of plywood up against the house in case you accidentally hit the house either with the backhoe bucket or the bush. I also find it easier to have a hose handy, once the stump is out just spray off the dirt. Sometimes when the dirt is hard I'll also use water to loosen it up before digging.

@elektrikman8834 2 года назад

I think the thumb is a great addition to this machine however I thing it should be independently controlled

@Fellgla 5 лет назад

Hello Tim, extend your backhoe just enough to load it. And return it to transport once loaded. It will give you the clearance you need, without overweighting the rear.

@brucealvarez9263 5 лет назад

@reap104 5 лет назад

I have a mechanical thumb on my MF GC1710 CB65 backhoe from BXPandeded that utilizes the factory mounting system. For the money and lack of independent operation of the thumb itself I prefer to select from the various notches where i'd like to be to know where my grab/pivot point is vs the "dueling" valves of a single function/dual cylinder thumb setup. I really think it takes a full independent thumb to justify the expense and extra plumbing

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

Understood. My opinion is not fully formed. It worked better than you describe. In fact, it worked quite well on that stump. We’ll test it further.

@reap104 5 лет назад

@jamesnagle2226 4 года назад

Tim, I have the same tractor JD2305 with a 260 backhoe. When loading, I lay a pair of 2X6's on the road prior to the loading ramp, which eliminates the hoe from dragging. I wounder what the part number is for the smaller trenching bucket used in the video?

@homergarcia376 5 лет назад

Tim I believe you’re using the thumb incorrectly. I think the valve is just to set the thumb to your preferred position then locking it in, using the bucket for clamping down instead.

@zachary3777 5 лет назад

No.

@avs8870 5 лет назад

@Nf6xNet 5 лет назад

The big, wide thumb with the narrow bucket looks kind of unusual, and I like it.

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

I suppose you are right. Never really thought about it. Same thumb for 8, 12, 04 16" buckets. One point I should have mentioned...the thumb would make it harder to dig 8" trench because it sticks out wider than the bucket.

@Nf6xNet 5 лет назад

Tractor Time with Tim Well then, you obviously need another tractor for digging 8” trenches. :)

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

I like how you think, Mark! I now have Vinny's trencher for digging 5.5" trenches.. so I guess that is close!

@steverone7623 5 лет назад

In some towns in southern NJ you could put that stump outside on the curb and the first of the month they come around with a GIANT front end loader with a fancy 4way bucket to pickup and put in the township dump truck. I guess paying 8k a year in property tax has some benefits

@ThePlowGuys 5 лет назад

I think a hydraulic thumb may be overkill for such a small tractor. A manual one would work just as well.

@TractorTimewithTim 5 лет назад

It may be overkill, but it did work better than a manual thumb. I would disagree with you on the latter half of your assertion.

@liffy8333 5 лет назад

Do you have a JD 8" bucket on? My JD dealer (salesman) told me that the thumb will not work with a 8" bucket, only the 12" bucket. I asked him why and he said he didn't know but "when you ordered the thumb (mechanical) and the 8" bucket I was told it the thumb only works with the 12" bucket". Maybe the teeth won't mesh but I can't see how it "wouldn't work", do you?

Looks like it’s working fine. On a small attachment like that’s just one more lever for the thumb that may be in the way. Unless it was factory installed w a foot lever so you wouldn’t have to take your hands off the other levers. We can’t expect that much out of these attachments. Although mine is a larger backhoe attachment it’d be harder for me to reach the release lever on top there. But it is what it is
