  • Using the Sidney Tractor Tree Saw on the Kubota L2501 to clear invasive elm trees off an old golf course. So satisfying!

    I just ordered one today for my 4701 Kubota! Cant wait to see it in action! I need to clear 12 acres of woods.

    Yes. They will grow back. Either brush cut regularly or spray stump killer on each stump.

    Forestry mower would solve tree and stump issue, of course that requires a skid steer. Cool saw, tho, kinda wish I had a use for one!

    Chemical wise, look up "crossbow" you can mix it with water for a foliar or with diesel to treat stumps

  • @Chris72401
    @Chris72401 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Mix up some glyphosate heavy and broadcast spray the entire area. For any stumps greater than 3 inches drill a hole about 4" deep in it and fill it with straight glyphosate. To make sure it's "dead dead" you could add about a 4% solution of triclopyr with the glyphosate broadcast spray.

      Thanks for the advice Chris! I’m a little hesitant to spray too many chemicals (personal health concerns) but it definitely sounds like that would do the trick at preventing these pesky trees from growing right back. Do you recommend wearing any protective gear when broadcast spraying this mixture?

      The tractor is probably too small for the saw in reality, but the saw fit and the tractor ran it like I champ! I took it pretty slow on larger trees. Small stuff obviously wasn’t an issue.

    Hey buddy nice video. This is an attachement I was looking for. However, it says: "Designed for tractors with greater than 30HP" An issue running it on your L2501? I'm looking to get the L2501 myself, but don't want to go up in HP, so I don't have to mess with the emission system. Was wondering if it worked pretty well for yah?

    • @JoelGaeddert
      @JoelGaeddert  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thanks man. Honestly the tractor is a little under-powered for a saw this big. I totally stalled the engine a couple times when the trees fell directly down onto the blade and stopped it from spinning simply due to the weight of the tree. I suppose that also meant my slip clutch wasn’t set correctly.
      So if I had to do it over again I would buy the larger tractor and not worry about the emissions system.
      But as you can see from the videos I’ve made it does work in the end if you move a little more slowly and make sure that the tree falls away from the blade. I cut an approximately 20” diameter cedar tree with it no problem! Just made several cuts from different angles.
