Thanks Tim as always. We took your advise and purchased the heavy hitch tooth bar for our 2025. My wife’s Christmas present 😊.
Man, it turned our tractor into a whole different machine. Works fantastic. Thankyou for help as always ❤
Tim we're all grateful for the time you spend on your videos and understand when you just want to relax and do them off camera. Personally myself I enjoy your simple home projects the most, I find those videos very relaxing. I'm sure there's many of your subscribers who would enjoy more raw video, no voice overs or live commentary and just one camera set up for your projects you don't feel like putting on a whole production for.
Just a tip for anyone trying to do stump removal in this fashion: Work with mother nature. Wait until about 24 hours or so after a heavy rain depending on your soil. If you do the soil will be much softer and save a LOT of time. But test the ground before going head first because you don't want mud getting you stuck or making you unstable.
This is how I have been doing my stumps. Using an lx2610, a set of kens hooks, some chain and a piranha tooth bar. They are considerably larger than the ones Tim is digging, infact they nearly max out my loader just moving some around.
Great video as always Tim! Just as you said not all of us can afford the extra cash for a backhoe, especially starting out when you can buy 3 or 4 attachments for that money.
Tim let’s call this a budget video. Let’s make it a regular thing once in a while for you to do a budget video. I am the 3038E guy that makes all his own attachments. I like saving money and doing things without a lot of resources because I don’t have a lot of resources.
That’s a great example of the tooth bar and how it can improve the versatility of the bucket. As you pointed out, it’s nice to accomplish a project in a “low stress” setting. Blessings.
Tractor is a beast. I have a 1023 and have pulled a welded H fence post out of the ground with the bucket. Both sides of the post were buried 3 feet deep with concrete.
Just entered into the world of tractor ownership with a 1025R. I have operated many tractors and pieces of equipment but I was smart enough to know that on my size of property this would be the best bang for the buck. I have the bucket backhoe combination from the dealer and added the 3049 tiller and ran across your channel while looking for ideas on how to cut the pto shaft the dealer forgot to cut. I will be looking at all your content over time and thanks for being a part of the information dissemination system as we appreciate it. I also have been bookmarking your channel sponsors since I will be adding many things to the stock rig over time.
Welcome to our channel! We have TONS of information on the 1025r.
Congratulations on your new tractor!
Glad to see the 1025R love your videos that includes the 1025R 😊❤
These are the videos I always look forward to. Thank you for showing this project. This is something I have (and still need to do more) around the house. I had looked into getting a tooth bar back during the pandemic but things were tough to get then. This reminds me I need to get one. Great advice at the end about not needing to do everything at once also.
Tim, I am surprised that the loader frame has not bent from lifting on the corners, especially with the increased hydraulic pressure. Makes me feel better about stressing mine with standard pressure. I have the tooth bar based on your recommendation and will be using it soon to break up an old dirt pile. Also, I have to mention this after listening to so many episodes, I recommend being more consistent with engine RPM when working. I normally don't do work below ~2000RPM. I will however leave it at idle when moving in and out of the garage or when turning the PTO on or off. Thanks for this video.
They put the throttle on there for a reason. I'm gonna use it. :-)
There are times one needs full throttle. don't be scared of it. There are also times that lower throttle provides more control. Remember, I have the HydrosPlus pump on this tractor. I won't need as much throttle to generate quick responsive movements.
I appreciate the focus on the bucket with the toothbar, exactly what I have. I also just do what I can, no worries on a slow project. Great video.
I enjoyed the video. It is nice to see the projects that one can accomplish with some basic tools/equipment.
Its funny, I was just on the HH site looking at the tooth bar yesterday. After investigating and pricing the tooth bar options out there, it was obvious the Heavy Hitch version was the best choice. I just wanted to verify my bucket size before I pulled the trigger and bought it with my TTWT discount :)
I purchased a HH tooth bar years ago,right after you used one on your channel, Love it, it sure makes a compact tractor a digging machine. Love your show.
A tooth bar, some bolt on hooks and a stump wrecker are all on my Christmas list. JohnnyX looking good!
I like my toothbar it is a game changer. It also makes a nice rake for sticks and brush.
The small jobs like this one and green machines is what got me started watching. I have stuff on both my machines from HH
I think I am going to have to get one of those tooth bars. Looks like a game changer. My wife and I take on one or more projects around the house/property each week. We call them "our stupid projects". Family and friends even ask what "stupid project" we did last! Recently it has been putting topsoil along our new sidewalk. The tractor has been very helpful. Next we have to pour a concrete step to replace the concrete blocks that are our temporary front porch step. We just bite off manageable chunks of work and feel a sense of accomplishment as each is completed. We will NEVER run out of things to do. BTW, I just installed the Amp Research Bedstep 2 on my 2011 F250. It is a great step. Installation was a little tricky but it was worth it.
We LOVE the steps. Both sides and left rear corner!
Home projects are part of making things like you would like it to be. Enjoy your videos.
I'm excited and can't wait to try this with my tooth bar on a Kabota sub compact.
I took out about 2 dozen arborvitaes with my 2025. I cut them about 5 or 6 feet up so that I could wrap a chain around the top of the stump and use leverage to pull them out. About 10 of them were 25-30ft tall.
19:12 I was howling! Hardworking Christy…who’s done the lion’s share of the manual heavy lifting…is muscling a beast of a root into the bucket and Tim jumps out and tosses a twig in!🤣 I envision some grovelling during the next visit to the finance manager!
Ah, she does almost all of the work! Simple work arrangement. She does all the work, I take all the credit.
Used my toothbar on my 1025R to pluck up scotchbroom, which is a weed that gets as big as bushes. Rootballs are shallow, but wide. Cleared an acre in 2-3 weekends.
Awesome video! Thank you two for the time spent making videos ... KOOL!
Another cheap way I have taken small stumps out is with a ripper/subsoiler. The ripper will grab onto the roots and actually pull your tractor down giving you more traction to yank it out.
Good to see you getting back to your roots
Roots! Ha! I see what you did there. funny how just a few episodes on a larger tractor gets some folks totally bent out of shape.
Great video. Thanks! 😀
Tim,
we bought a HH toothbar based on your review with Katriel. It didn't fit and I had to grind down the non-standard welding on the Kubota bucket. Fits now and works as well as you said.
Not easy to take on and off...I use a bottle jack to push it off.
Interesting. This would probably be good feedback for HeavyHitch to hear. Perhaps your Kubota bucket is shaped a bit different than most. Kubota has MANY different bucket sizes and shapes...unlike Deere which has a single shape across all compact tractors.
i have the bolt on hooks with clevis and the tooth bar. its wicked. digs really well. right now i don't have it on as i have a smaller piranha tooth bar on right now.
Call 811! ;-) Just attached my Heavy-Hitch toothbar (once again - thank you for the discount code), which is a three minute job with an 8mm Hex socket and an impact-driver, and I have one miserable stump in my pasture where a dead oak tree was felled. That will be the second job for it. The first was as a poor-man's-pallet-fork, along with a length of logging chain, to move the empty pallet that my new box blade and SpeeCo. Quick Hitch arrived on (where has this been all my tractor life?!?) using much the same technique as you are for transporting the stumps. Lots of new goodies!
was out on a bush hogging job thursday and took down a rotten 18 inch diamator tree with my 1750 hst the tree fell into the tree next to it and was bound to fall soon so tried to pull it down planing on it being a fail but shocked me that i got it down
I have a backhoe but it would he a waste to get for 3 stumps. I don’t have a grapple because I don’t have a lot of large brush. I want a grapple! But the method shown here has worked for me using chain hooks and chains to move large oak rounds, stumps dug up with my backhoe, and small machinery. It is also nice to know the other methods regardless. Sometimes the time it would take to go get a dedicated implement would be worse than just using what you have on the tractor at the moment.
Thanks for the content ! Let’s get started
It was nice to see what can be done without attachments.
I thought for sure that you would have bent your loader arms and or twisted your frame by trying to lift the stumps from one corner of the loader, especially that you have all that extra hydraulic power.
It would have been easier if you had soaked the area with water first. Also try using a 12" Milwaukee pruning blade on a sawzall to cut some of the bigger roots first is very helpful. The dirt doesn't seem to bother the blade too much, if you want to later dig out the rest of the bigger roots it's a piece of cake.
I would of love to see the time difference using the hulk 25R vs the standard 25R ripping out those stumps using the tooth bar.
Thanks!
Very kind! Thanks!
I have a tuffline 28" single shank subsoiler. It's a beast. With my DK4710 hst, I can't pull the stump of an 8" spruce. I didn't dig like you did though. I expected I could rip the roots. maybe I should have gone further out from the stump where the roots would be thinner. I didn't want to mess up the yard.
Yep. If you can’t break the root, go further out.
I'm gonna have to get a tooth bar. I've been using a subsoiler to break up the ground around stumps and then digging them out with bucket. I try to push trees over so the stumps fold up out of the ground but some just refuse to fold up.
the only point that's not what others would have is... The back end reaction weight.. wheel weights , tyres filled and a backhoe on there too.
That is a lot more weight than most people would have and thos e roots were tipping that lot.
Well, others SHOULD have those items…rear ballast, filled tires, wheel weights. We state that consistently on this channel.
I will not apologize for showing a machine properly ballasted (per the owners manual).
Tim l notice Good Works Tractor 🚜 is selling the Summit from India. I bought the 1025r, did I make the right choice 🤔? You and the wife are doing a great job 👏
Yes. You made the right choice. Remember this is 10 years!!!
Nice work for dat lil tractor, I hope you get some AIR in the LR tire looks like it's about to bite the rim :)
It doesn’t matter what tractor a tooth bar breaks up the straight edge and gives individual points to break ground up like running your box teeth lowered i use a removable tooth bar on my front buckets
Good job getting the stumps out using the bucket. As your septic tank is right there, I assume that your sewer line is coming from the house in that area, using the backhoe and digging deeper could risk hitting the line.
I would add that a level of price between what you did today and the stump grinder, would be a stump bucket designed for compact and subcompact tractors. I have one coming in this week and I am looking forward to getting out some annoying stumps.🎉 Great video on showing what you can do on what type of budget you have.
Tooth bar, bigger hydraulic pump, turbo and green paint
Seeing ya move those rocks reminded me of something that happened in 1981. I had graduated and started learning the plumbers trade. I was put behind a backhoe cleaning out ditches. (they wanted to start me in upper management but I insisted on the bottom) What I wouldn't kid ya, back to the story Every time this operator hit a large rock he would call it a sex stone. The first days I didn't want to seem extremely stupid so I didn't ask. Finally my 18 year old brain had to know what a sex stone was? He said "son it's a big friggin rock". It never really improved after that...
Do you have a tree/root spade, stump bucket attachment? That would probably have taken those out in no time.
I like the capabilities of my HH toothbar, but no longer use it - because it keeps falling off.
I torque it to spec, and fill the allen screws with wax - to keep them clean.
If the toothbar would stay on, I'd use it all the time - but it won't stay on.
If the tooth bar bolted on easier, that would help too - as filling with wax is a pain.
Contact the company. They had a few that would not stay on.
@@TractorTimewithTim will do, thankyou!
Tim don’t forget to use ridex once a month on septic tanks. helps break down waste etc see package
Christy: "At our age, we wouldn't want to be out here with a shovel." 18:15
I had just told Kelli three minutes before, "Our days of the shovel and pick axe exclusively to do something like this are over."
Great minds, am I right?
Well I learned a new word today, and after searching for spelling figured out it is "arborvitae" and then I learned way more about them than I probably should.
Lotsa folks love them.
Tim,I see the back tire flex. What air pressure do you run?
Have you looked into a stump wrecker? i know Courtney for good works tractor designed a small one for a smaller tracter.
I have a front hoe bucket from Artillian.com While it works, I don't like using it because I can't see what is going on. One just has to "guess" at what they are doing.
I think after this video the Channel should be re named to Tractor Time with Christy! :-))) Christy is a hard worker. Dang, she'd put me to shame.
Yes, she puts me to shame. Constantly going!
@@TractorTimewithTim I believe we both married up :)
Christy says Tim do you think Johnny can pop those Arborvitae’s out of the ground? Tim stuffs his Cheeseburger down grabs his gloves and says let’s just see. God Bless you both and drink water in the heat.
Ha!
Can't help but wonder if this will be the ending message Philippians 2:14-15 “Do everything without grumbling and arguing so that you may be blameless and pure, innocent children of God surrounded by people who are crooked and corrupt. Among these people you shine like stars in the world.”
Good way to twist the loader frame shame you don't own a backhoe
Discussed in the video. Oh well.
Thanks
Nice job y'all!!. From gary
GREAT Video, The uses of the loader on a small subcompact tractor,, the backhoe would have been a good option if the loader couldn't get it done..... 😢😮😊🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔🙏🙏🙏👍✌️🌹
Ok Tim; I'm at a loss here.
You have a B260 which I've used for removing stumps from 30' tall oak trees yet you chose to use the tooth bar.
The backhoe and thumb can remove the stump faster and with less disturbance of the surface soil.
Then you can wrangle multiple stumps into the bucket for transport to your brush pile.
Discussed in the video. The point of this video is ‘what if you do not have a backhoe?’ Seems like we can’t win. If we use it, folks complain “you use stuff we can’t afford”. If we don’t use it, folks still complain.
@@TractorTimewithTim Apologies; didn't watch the whole video and not complaining, just confused.
For those without a backhoe, or wheel weights, filled tires, or a modified tractor, it would still provide a challange even with a tooth bar.
@@Digidoc316 ha, so I REALLY can’t win. I used the wrong tractor! Wow.
For those without a tractor, it would REALLY be difficult!
Would have been interesting to do a comparison with the toothbar bucket vs the backhoe on the 1025R
I have both on my 2025R, not really a comparison, but if you don’t have the backhoe or want to spend the extra $$$$. I mainly use the tooth bar on the bucket for moving around gravel, topsoil and stuff. But it makes your bucket much more versatile. And with that said our 17g is a killer compared to the 2025 backhoe so each has its place. Cheers
question from a newbie to the tractor community< does it take much effort to bend or tweak your boom arms? I see the twist while digging out the stumps, is that significant enough to damage your arms?
They are pretty tough. The easiest way to bend them is to drive into something immovable at a fast speed. “RAM IT”.
Trying to lift heavy load will not likely bend them.
I think the Bxpanded tooth bar would be better than the heavy hitch bar. The teeth on the heavy hitch bar seem to be too long and look like they sit to far below the edge of the bucket to be super effective. I don't have either one, but I've thought about getting one for my bucket. Would be interested to see Tim try the tooth bar from Bxpanded also.
Absolutely LOVE the aggressiveness of the HH toothbar. Really works well.
Hi Tim, Love the content you put out. I am up in LaPorte, not too far from you. I have a 2017 Mahindra 1526 HST it only has 133 hours on it and I am the original owner, and it is a great tractor! now I am looking at a Cab tractor now and a little more HP so I have been studying the CK3510SE HST Cab, the feature it comes with at the price are pretty hard to beat. So my questions to you is what are your thoughts on the Kioti and what do you think the Mahindra would be worth on the used market. Trade in would net me only 10k, on tractor house I only found 2 one for 12 and 18 and they are older than mine, plus I still have warranty left as I bought it when Mahindra went to a 7 year. Thanks for your time and content! Steve
Mahindra will not trade/resell very well.
We say this repeatedly, but folks apparently don’t believe us.
I like the CK3510SE. I think there is a CK3520SE now…you should investigate before purchasing.
What do you mean gotta be careful with the curl cylinders?
When fully extended, they can be broken if stressed too much
Hello Tim I have bought a John Deere 1023e Allergan to know how you feel 1023e a true little spray does your job it takes time to take someone to do it I would like to know your opinion about it I really I really do enjoy
Please review your comment. I do not understand.
Good video. I enjoy the good practical uses of the subcompact tractors.
I'm deciding between the "piranha" and the "heavy hitch"
They are designed very differently.
Why do you prefer the heavy hitch bar?
Thanks for the "most effective and least expensive" episode.
Easy to attach/remove.
More aggressive.
“Bites” vines, brush etc sorta like a grapple. Helps to pick them up.
No holes to drill in the bucket.
Don’t forget code TTWT.
@@TractorTimewithTim
Thanks.
I trust your opinions. I installed Ken's bolt on hooks a few weeks ago and am very happy with them.
I will use the code again.
Hi Tim. Can you recommend a viable cylinder alternative to a 2020 JD 120 r loader. I've got one that blew a seal
HydrosPlus.com use code ttwt
I know the not so fun way of removing stumps by hand. Even this makes me want to save up for a 1025R. Nothing wrong with showing a cost effective solution with a subcompact tractor.
Personally, I would never use my loader in this way. The twisting, jerking and high torques are going to take years off the life of that loader. For about $400 a day, you can rent a mini backhoe and take out every stump in the neighborhood. Probably even make a few bucks in the process. Just my two cents...
Each to his own.
That would be my house I wouldn't put nothin back hey this planet and grass the older we get harder it is to take care of things
@TTWT, How many PSI are you running in the Front & Rear Tires!??
Very high in the front (35), very low in rear. Just enough to keep rim from spinning in tire.
Didn't you have a grapple for one of your tractors at one point?
Yes, several. Watch and listen to the point of the video. Seems like I can’t win.
If we show the advanced stuff folks complain. If we keep it simple and cost effective, folks complain. Oh well.
All I saw was Christy being helped by Tim.. Someone owes someone a "Cheeseburger Dinner" out in style.. Not the drive-through...
Gonna give you my wife's phone number so you can explain that closing point to her. :) from remodels to landscaping, she thinks it should all be done in a day with no interruptions of daily life lol...take care.
No idea about your situation. ...everyone is different. ...but maybe getting her involved more might help her to see the time and effort required?
Christy and I have REALLY had to work on our attitudes since we have had the TH-cam channel. We have MANY things we would like to do inside the house, but simply cannot take the time.
Hey Tim have you heard any update on the 6port single point connector release from Deere?
It isn’t from Deere. You can preorder upgrade form discounthydraulichose.com/ttwt the ‘full kit’ will be on the website soon.
There are a limited number available by end of July. Then, it will be another 4 months wait!
Don’t forget code ttwt!
@TractorTimewithTim sweet! Thanks for the information!! I'll do that!
-After further investigation looks like it's only for the one series and 2025R tho? Is this correct?
@@rcwayt4020 yes. What model do you have?
@TractorTimewithTim I have a 2022 2038R, is there an option for the 2038R?
Rear left tire looks low
Hey Tim , your left rear tires flat.
No, it isn’t. We run them low. No worries.
Backhoe ?
keep watching and listening. Discussed.
Tim, i watched the whole vid. and i am sticking with Backhoe-mine is a Kubota, and its hoe is only 9 ft. reach, but she is a digger..
Yep. Backhoe is great for this kind of project. Perfect in fact.
Might be the lighting, but the left rear tire looks low
We run them low.
First!
I guess my question is why didn't you use the back hoe and not tear up the whole bed??
Why don’t you use your backhoe?
Watch and listen.
Just wondering why you would abuse your loader that way when you have a backhoe 😢
Continue watching and listening. Explained in the video.
He is fully aware he has a hoe on the back. He is trying to explain why an add-on tooth bar would make your bucket 3x better for digging.
Why aren't you using the backhoe? It is way more powerful.
Keep watching and listening. I explain.
The backhoe would be better
Watch and listen. Discussed in the video.
To me the backhoe would have been a better tool.
Yep. Discussed in the video.
