You got that stump out! The first thing I do is always work as much of the dirt off the stump roots as possible. Maybe not in your case but sometimes the dirt weighs as much as the stump, either way it will make it easier.

@kanisohana 2 года назад

I live in Hawaii and I had to dig up a large avocado tree stump but the roots grew into solid rock. A good tip to help get the tree out is to use a sawzall and cut any big roots that the machine can’t break. A root that has a 5” diameter will add about 10,000 lbs of break out force so cutting it makes a big difference when trying to get it loose.

@RockhillfarmYT 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing This stump weighs about 5000 pounds. This machine still struggled to pull it out after all the roots were cut and I can’t even pick it up with my skid steer

@sswkevinloucks Год назад

Digging around the tree before cuttung the tree down allows you to use the trees top weight to up end the tree. You can rock the tree back and forth until it falls down using your digger and then cut the tree up. That method has worked for me while I was clearing the land for the new house.

Hey ole joe can run that sucker. Not beating anyone up but I have many years of experience myself. He had it whipped before he backfilled behind it. Ramp down underneath and attack that tap root. Pop it out like a tooth. Bit of a small machine for the job, but definitely enough operator to get it done. Awesome video

Aside from the advances in computer technology, nothing in my lifetime qualifies for more admiration and respect than. . . HYDRAULICS. Just imagine how fast those Egyptians could have been erecting the Pyramids if they had the use of hydraulic lifters and fluid. Amazing how such a small/medium size machine can do so much heavy work. I want to rent one just to play with it.

@heydude4532 Год назад

That stump is definitely larger than what this size machine should be engaging but in the hands of someone that has the experience running equipment they end up getting things done. good job sir.

These machines are very capable given enough time. I am hoping to get a mini-ex one day. Just incredibly expensive where I am at. Usually a nice small one is going for $75,000+ and a large one is going for $30,000 with same hours and year. Everybody wants one, I guess.

That 1st one was huge and rocks were pretty cool on the 2nd one. Seems like it would have been easier, at least on the 1st one, to dig around it and some of the big roots and then push the whole tree over and then just cut the stump off.

@RockhillfarmYT 2 года назад

That would have probably would have been the best way to do it. That was a huge tree and With a rental machine I wanted the tree to be buckled up and out of the way before the machine was delivered I could have left an even taller stump for leverage though

@rhiekel Год назад

My stump technique is simple. Break it loose, then tilt it up out of the hole. Then did the hole much deeper. Then simply drop the stump back into the hole, and bury it, Much simpler than trying to burn or deal with a giant stump....
