151 - Backhoe Upgrade - Making Life Easier - Kubota Compact Tractor
When using a frame mounted backhoe on a n open station compact tractor that has a swivel seat, it can become a real pain when you have to move the tractor/backhoe around a lot, thus having to swivel the seat back and forth continuously. So I decided to install a seat onto my Kubota BH77 backhoe to make my life a little easier when operating the backhoe.

And its not all work!! Gotta take time to play - after turning my pond into a skating rink, and a whole bunch more of outdoor activities.

About 2 weeks ago I had a viewer “Tarheelsrule” who left a comment stating that they have 2 log peelers that they use to remove roots in yards so that people won’t run over them with their lawn mowers and bend the blades or crankshafts.

    Good morning Paul, very nice modification. I can see that this will be so much more convenient. Easy install and it looks like it was done at the factory. There is not a lot of space between the seat and the controls on the backhoe our B2601, similar to what you now have. A habit I have adopted is when getting on or off the seat I put my arm across my belly to prevent my clothes from catching the control levers. I enjoyed the video very much. Have a great week, Ben 👋😎👍

    That's great Paul, 16th like 🙂. Sure takes a lot of the hassle out of using the backhoe, I liked your advice on making the seat taller, I did that on my side-by-side simply using four 2-in electrical conduit couplers that made a nice little metal sandwich and then I put longer bolts in, that would probably work well for this application too. Have a blessed day

    • @JelenOutDoors
      @JelenOutDoors Před 3 dny

      It has been a lot less of a hassle not having to flip the tractor seat around anymore. When setting the seat in the taller position the shorter straight control lever are needed since the curved ones like I have will be too close to your knees. Have a great evening Jeff!

    The area of the circumference of a log is pi R squared. So if your log is 2' in diameter, it has a radius of 1'. Pi (1)squared is 3.14 sq ft. Now make your log a 3 dimensional cylinder 1 foot long. Just multiply 3.14 squared by 1. Now you have 3.14 cubic feet. Find a chart on the internet which gives the density of the wood you are dealing with. Poplar is said to be 22-31lb per cubic foot. And so your 1' long cylinder of poplar with a radius of 1' weight approximately 68-96 lbs, and an 8' log could weigh as much as 760 lbs.

    Right after high school, I was in swimming pool excavation for a few years. I rememver this one dig had the stump of a 60 year old pecan tree to remove. This stump was around 3 feet wide. The excavator we used to dig the pools had a 2 yard bucket. We had to use a rock ripper to take out that stump. It took longe to remove the stump than to dig the pool. That stump and all its roots filled two dump trucks full.

    I have to hand it to you, you must be one of the most tenacious dedicated patient people I've ever seen. Great job on that stump.

    Wrong! Firstly you must have a ridge cut regarding desired angle/pitch. Then if you want to apply this method, you have to temporarily connect it to the ridge with an offset by the same thickness of the wood block you are using here, then you can mark and cut, it would fit perfectly. If you don’t do, unless you cut the ridge side exactly same way (not a good idea, it will make the rafter weak and the wood will crack from there under force), you will end up with different incline and have gaps at both sides. Those gaps can be dramatic regarding how deep you cut the birds mouth, because you simply decreasing the inclination angle with that cut.

      The way I have done it is correct in relation to the way the top is done. Here is the link for the top. czcams.com/users/shortspRlzk0hAS7I Have a great day!

    How's she goin'? Wow, that's a big stump and it gave you a pretty good fight, but you mastered it in the end. Nice idea to use the saw to quarter the stump and break in pieces. A lot of work eh. Nice job though. Take 'er easy!!

      It's going good Mike. Thanks. It was a lot of work and I really enjoyed the challenge. I had to break up the stump into sections as it was too large and too heavy for my backhoe and tractor to handle in one piece. Have a super week!

    Hopefully you're enjoying your new backhoe by now! If you don't mind me asking, how much did the subframe kit run you?

      I am really enjoying the backhoe, thanks. I don't recall the exact cost, but it was around $1600 Canadian. In the US it is listed at $1256.70 on the Messick's website. Here is the link www.messicks.com/parts/BH4966 Have a great week.

    🚜🚜🚜I don’t think my “Clementine” will be powerful enough to do this kind of work…Clementine is our BX23s Kubota. Well Done Paul!

      Thank you Mr. Garry. The BX is pretty powerful, just may take a little longer to do the job. Take care and have a fabulous Sunday!

    What a monster! My wife was laughing at me as I was coaxing the stump along while I was watching the video. Today I watched a coyote doing something in a field I was raking in that I’ve never seen before. I’ll have a video out on that soon. Enjoy the rest of your weekend my friend!

      By the way, your water system was a great piece of equipment to have for that job. Very nice!

    • @JelenOutDoors
      @JelenOutDoors Před 18 dny

      It was a good size stump. Lol, my wife would do the same if it was me. Looking forward to seeing the coyote. You too, enjoy the rest of the weekend!

      Thanks Brian, I am really happy with the watering system, it has been very handy.
