Do you think the 36" wide would have been a better choice? Have you encountered not being able to fit where you needed to with the 42" Do you think the mt100 would also handle the 48" wide model or do you think it would be to large? thanks
@@biszooka the 42” was good for us. We regularly use a 52” “light material” bucket for pretty much everything. Can move 1/2 yard of material at a time. It’s not a 4 in 1 bucket though. The only time we can’t fit somewhere with it is usually a fence gate, so well just lift up over the gate
How do you like this 4in1 bucket? Can the MT open the bucket when its fully loaded with dirt? Unsure on whether to get a grapple bucket or 4in1 bucket.
My dump trailer is one 2x8 high on the sides and I have no problem reaching over it. Any higher would be tough I can reach over side of my F550 dump truck and dump in it and that’s taller than the dump trailer
If don’t mind me asking. What kind of price do you charge the customer for this job. I ordered me a mt-100 but won’t be here for another 4-5 months. Located in Louisiana
@@monsmonson7849 we ordered our machine March of this year and it came in June. I ordered a stump grinder in September and I’m not sure when that will be in
@@EliteLawnCareLandscaping I think 500 is a fair price for this - I wouldn't do it for any less. Just curious how you can justify to a customer charging them 500 dollars for something like this, and they only see you working for half an hour. How does that bill itemize out? Anybody can see that you obviously you have a lot invested, but how do you justify your price to the consumer? Do people argue on price much? Mechanic work is most of my background, and everybody ALWAYS complains about the price, you about have to itemize every single cent you charge them for. I just got an MT, and after I'm done cleaning up my own acreage I hope to start a tree service and landscaping business. Although physically harder, seems like much more enjoyable and more rewarding work.
@@EliteLawnCareLandscaping glad to see some use of spartan equipment. I almost bought one of their grapples, but the pricing seemed too good to be true, and I found literally no reviews or videos about them, other than ones they'd published. I'd like to get one of those 4 in 1 buckets like that - might have to give them a try.
Saw you on Dirt Monkeys video 👊👌 the mt looks real nice man.
Nice machine nice job.
Couple of them seemed to be stubborn but got it done 👍 now you had it for some time I hear some people say it’s very loud fully throttled up ?
The MT100 is not quitet at full throttle but no machine with any real power is
Just what I wanted to see

Thank you for Uploading/making these video's..... What is the width of the 4 in 1 bucket? thank you
This is a 48” bucket!
@@EliteLawnCareLandscaping Will have to look for one of those down here. Thank you

It’s amazing. It’s my go to bucket for almost everything. It’s always on my machine. And yes it can open with a full load
Do you still do you still have the 4 in 1 bucket? How long have you had it. Bobcat dealer told me they were having problems with
I do. Have had at for 2-3 years. It’s not from bobcat though it’s from spartan equipment
@6:41 you could have set the bush down and closed the bucket and scooped up root ball so you don't drag the mess all over.
i prefer the 3x8 alturnamats over plywood
@0:58 i would have back all the way out and made my turn on the street , nice job though
How long Did it take you to do this job
longer than 25 min ...
is the arrow able to hold the horizon when lifting?
I cannot understand your question!
@@EliteLawnCareLandscaping when the bucket is lifted, does it stay in a horizontal position?
@@polivcentr yes. You can tilt it how you normally can
Hows the machine do loading the dump trailer?
My dump trailer is one 2x8 high on the sides and I have no problem reaching over it. Any higher would be tough
I can reach over side of my F550 dump truck and dump in it and that’s taller than the dump trailer

@@adammcalpine231 we have the 4 in 1 bucket and an angle broom both for the MT100 and no complaints

@@nicholaswitzel5122 No. just asked the customer. Underground located won’t mask irrigation
