  • After literally cutting down hundreds of small to medium trees on our recently acquired property that was abandoned and terribly overgrown, it's now time to dig up some stumps.

    Appreciate the video. Often you will see forestry or construction folks put down folks using low cost small equipment to dig up tree stumps. Small size backhoes, even this standalone model, can do a lot of work for you. Even tractor-mounted backhoes may not be designed to dig out stumps but they certainly can do the job. Backhoes will take longer than a dozen or large excavator so be patient. Good to see the little tool getting some work done too!

    Nice!! Not only does it get the job done, but it's fun doing it!

    I am saving up to get mine. I have a lot of trees want to transplant. Plus I need to bury a tornado shelter of some kind. Awesome job 👍

    Add some gussets on the outriggers. They will be breaking before long. I have dug up many with mine. It will pay for itself instead of paying for a stump grinder .

    I thoroughly enjoyed watching you work. I am awaiting delivery of my trencher. Harbor Freight... Where the heck is it?! I can hardly stand the anticipation!!!

      I understand your angst! You'll have a lot of fun being productive when you get it up and going!

    I've been looking for an accessory thumb. The one I bought from the towable vendor was 'under engineered' and built from really soft steel: aka failed miserably.
    Can you tell me about yours?. It looks robust. Thanks.

      I picked mine up from Amazon for about $150. It's very thick and beefy with sharp teeth for gripping. I've used it to pick up HUGE stumps as well as 16"-plus logs. I love it! Here's the Amazon link, www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0732SFZQ4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks for visiting.

    You are digging too close to the stuff for such a small piece of equipment

      Isn't it funny how some genius always shows up to tell you how to do it AFTER it's been done?

    A caution.
    It has the power to rip the bucket apart and break most pieces of the machine.
    And watch the upper boom cylinder. It can hit the boom and bend the shaft, which ruins the cylinder.
    You were approaching the curl force that will break the bucket.

      I appreciate the caution, but I've dug up HUGE stumps with this thing with no failure issues yet.
