Trying out the new to me Fecon Mulcher and I possibly got the tractor stuck 🙄 

Get you a piece of Lexan to make you a shield to mount on your roll over bar. That way you can still see but will be protected, because it will eventually through something at you one day.

I was really waiting for some GoPro mulching!

Good call on thinking about stumps and sticks on the tires. And my rule is: "If you get out without calling a wrecker (or another tractor and a chain) you were never stuck."

That was cool. I've always wondered how effective a tractor driven mulcher would perform. Stay safe brother.

It wouldn't be a good tractor video without getting stuck 😅. The mulcher looks like it's a keeper! The only problem I have with rear mounted attachments is the constant twisting your body around to look behind you. Great video Michael 👍

I think John on Upstate Brush Control is smiling at you progress, learning and 'struggle bus' moments! GREAT JOB and great purchase. Love Fecon over brush hog mower!

Great job mulching Mr Dirt Perfect

Another great video Mike. Thanks!

Great video Mr Dirt Perfect

Great video Mike enjoy watching thanks!

Always enjoy your channel mike!

Getting it done!!

Amazing job ❤

I think a hydraulic toplink would make using that mulcher a little more user friendly.

That thing is a Beast, great job, looks like it'll come in handy on many other projects.

Nice job Mike.

That looked like it worked great on that tractor thanks for sharing buddy

Mike that brush hog worked pretty good. Thanks for sharing. Kevin

Awesome I beat that was alot of fun to do. Another perfect job in the books. Ur channel is excellent best 1 as far as I concerned. Keep putting the awesome videos out. Thanks for the time in making them

from the Netherlands thanks for the video DP

Good job with the FECON but a great job getting out of being stuck. Great patience and thinking your way out of a sticky situation. That was a difficult situation, to say the least!

This is the next thing on my Attachment list Great video

Great video DP, I own the same cutter. It's mounted on the front of our John Deere 8rx. It's in Alpena Michigan and we also run a large snow blower on the front of the same tractor. Carbide teeth, instead of shredding, sharp teeth make chips. Just run a grinder over your teeth. The only other advice is use a pole saw and your CAT Excavator to put your put your trees in windrows. That wouldn't make it quicker for you instead of driving around trees you just go up and down each windrow. Check this attachment off your bucket list lol

Operator makes the machine, the machine does not make an operator. You sir are one of the best on You tube as I see it.

Looks good for the first time mulching

Yes, it did a god job!

Great multi-camera angles... That thing is pretty scary seeing it’s operation... Looks great. Thank you

That really looks nice. Awesome video. I have a Mahindra shuttle tractor. Mine shuttle push the clutch in put the lever forward or reverse and the tractor will move to the way the shuttle points . So far I'm liking it. Take care and be safe out there Denis from Santa Rosa CA

When you find a lock pin that stays in let us all know, I've lost more of them than you can shake a stick at. Bigger seems to be better until they get bent. They are a pain to keep in the brush hog, now we use 1/4" bolts and lock nuts. They're a pain also.

Good job I like it too

That is what we used to clear fire breaks and trail work was one for a skid steer, I don’t remember who made it but we called it the land tamer, the teeth on the drum were like stingers on a road grader. The good part was the work was in front of you and it was easier to chop up the bigger stuff. The neat thing with it being on a skid steer was it would chew brush like crazy and you could use it to grind stumps, and grind rocks within reason, the draw back was sometimes it would spit stuff at you depending how the drum was positioned. Great job and video.

great camera shoots showing how you got out

Klassic Kealman Move, right there!

That muncher is a beast!!

Looks good I have a berti mulcher on my kx040-4 and I love it only downside is I can only mulch up to 5 to 6 inch

See it did great love your videos great job thank you

MBTS would have thoroughly enjoyed seeing you get stuck. That would have made for some very entertaining commentary.

Great job getting unstuck 👍

Let us have great respect for his GO-PRO for all the dangers that it is put through.

👍Barbarian Landscaping Equipment ended as a pretty nice job. Thanks for sharing.

The mulcher matches the paint on the tractor, Mrs. Dirt Perfect would probably never even know it didn't belong there. Excellent job of getting yourself out of the hole, you've obviously done that before.

John at Upstate Brush Controls videos are good examples of Fecons capabilities.

Turned out to be 2 good buys then. Fecon and seeder. Seems well worth it and another job done well. Cheers from Shelby County!

A larger tractor with grapple/rake on the front would be a mean combo!

Looks like it does a good job

I had to edit this comment, that’s what separates you from the others, you put your GoPro places others won’t 😂😂 great job brother

Man it's your chops up some trees you have a good day God bless good video🙏🚜

Makes a long day looking behind you. But you make a good point about the PTO vs a skid steer hydraulic motor.

Another great video , being in a bind like you were, who would have thought a great video? I did, great job!

Well that was awesome

You have patience 👌

Hi Mike. Definitely when 4x4 plus axle locks works in your favor lol . 🇨🇦 Craig

you did a great job mike

Good work

ran a Fecon head on a CAT 365 one summer, take a 2 foot diameter tree right down to the ground and nothing but chips left , great tool

Lovely bit of kit expertly used.Number seven is said to be a lucky number.

That does look alot better opened up nice job 😎👍👍

Imagine how good the mulcher will work if you put it on a tractor that is rated for it. 100 to 150 horsepower tractor would really get the drum spinning and chop stuff up better. I think you made a good buy on the mulcher. I see the purchase of a better tractor in the future now. Great video. Stay well. -Wil 👍

skid steer mounted mulcher is the way to go. save the neck and back . hug power difference . glad it worked.

Really did enjoy seeing you and chris together at Volvo land! Maybe next time you can feed from deere land!

It for sure looks 100% better

That's so nice

Armchair quarterbacks are found in all kinds of places. I been in that situation and I used the bucket to push or pull myself out. It is slow but works.

Skidsteer chews the wood into smaller pieces but that mulcher does a pretty good job. Maybe the blades aren't sharp enough.

get a 75 hp 4 wheel drive tractor with the pto and a 3 point on the front. Then you can drive forwards and munch the brush down, the mulching afterwards is backing out.

It surely did a good job mulching that up, but a skid steer would be more maneuverable and quicker over the ground. Nice work on the brush patch.

B4 someone says, you did it backwards, NO, you used the REAR PTO! Actually a handicap and stiff neck for you! YOU are "COMBAT READY" and 'certified' ARMY CORP of ENGINEERS thought process when faced with something beyond the "NORM"! I'm impressed! Hey, that FECON is actually a 'perfect' running older unit and all anyone would need for the task at hand (BEAST!) Great presentation, MIKE & thank you for another!

32:25 The GoPro has a crackle star burst feature! Who knew??? Great risk shots!!! Cheers!

The 120 has been good to ya!!! May need a green tractor!!!!

I know somebody who has one on a open station tractor, they cut expandable metal to fit the ROPS. The attached it with clamps to the ROPS so it was easy on easy off when not needed.

Boys and thier toys yea greetings from Wales

Looking good until you got stuck. The job done was awesome.

Keep it between the ditches!

Thats an awesome mulcher. I was looking at a Fecon tiller but it was hydraulic and required a pump so big i don't even know what could possibly run it. Price was in my range too, just dont have anything that could even turn it.

....good one, should do the job, stay safe...

Great video DP it clean up nice 👍 your getting a nice fleet of different stuff cool love your videos keep up them cool shots 👌😎👍

Thk DP. Wondering if this would work at our deer camp and you answered it before we bought one

Wow that's was a good job I never get my self out like that

It seems to be doing a good job and not stalling out .

That is a good rime to have a hydraulic top link!

Hi Mike, appreciate all you work, I'm now hooked. I imagine the the "you don't want to do it like that, you want to do it like this" comments must result in an eye roll. However ;) I just watched Andrew Camarata's "Removing part of a barn" video where he has a brush cutter attached to a skid steer and it was both rapid, maneuverable and seemed to devour the same diameter tree's yours did. He mentioned in another video is was, $4,300 shipped with an extra set of blades

Great job Mike, awesome video 👍 #mulchperfect

Suggestions, see if you can find half tracks, they should give better traction in wet ground. Going forward it seems to work much the same as a rototiller; close the 'gate / flap' it should leave finer clippings behind. Cut high four to six inches going backwards followed by going forward very close to the ground should leave the area ready for grass seed or planting small trees and shrubs. Glad to see that you are having fun with your new "toy".

Mike, It works pretty decent compared to Skidsteer one. Saw Goodquad RU-vid boys use the Kubota mulcher (Required bullet proof glass) and it ate through trees and stumps like butter (superfast). Just about everything you mentioned was spot on in your comparison. Might have been a little easier and faster with Skidsteer, but the job is done! BTW, you can't blame TMBTS, he did what you ask (there is video proof)!. And Captain already explained on his channel how the first air compression broke, and he replaced it (Great story)!

For 75hp it did the job, as for flat tires, if you get into Honey Locust that is when the trouble starts. Leave the chamber open while backing up to broadcast, close it when driving forward as you found out to mulch. The attachments and high flow heads are ok, the dedicated Fecon machines FTX are beasts but come with the price to match.....😁

Awesome video keep up the good work man 👍👍

4 wheel drive that works and a scoop of dirt in the front end loader for weight will be a game changer for you. I won't even use the skidder anymore. Might change my mind if the skidder had tracks.

I thing the brush cutters mounted on Hi-flow skid steers works faster. The best way I've seen them used is with an excavator removing the trees roots and all limb the log out if desired and use the mulcher to chip up the limbs. As much as I like a good brush pile fire I like see the plant return to the earth as compost.

Looks nice DP

Nice camera angle and shots. Thanks. I think your 4 wheel drive is working know that tire is turning that's in the air

That camera was a worthy sacrifice.

From the looks of it, that would be about perfect for doing some stump grinding as well. When you used it to take down the tree towards the end I was thinking it would _probably_ take down just about any size tree you wanted to back up into, you'd just have to sort of work your way into it a little at a time.

Got diff lock on that tractor!

I am sorry again I have not commented I have not watched much TV but I’m back watching now I have not feel good The last couple of months my friend but I had to come and say that was pretty slick getting that tractor out good job man that’s why I Always say you are good operator dirt Perfect on The job nothing to worry about be safe

good mulcher

should have called captain gleeman to get the tractor out ,he gets his out all the time.lol

Skid steer mulcher my friend! Lol

If you plan on running the mulcher on there a lot a hydraulic top link is a life saver.

She's a beast, a wire cage on the back of the tractor would be a must for me, seen to many injuries from debris. Captain K would go crazy on that,lol

Mike, Put bolts in your lower lift pins. that way you wont loose the lynch pins.
