I\'m stumped..
Just added a BH-90 Backhoe to the L3130 Kubota, and am ready to start attacking various rocks and stumps as I expand my yard into the neighboring woods in all directions.
I've been reading some horror stories here in the forums from those who have dared to remove stumps, especially maple stumps from their property..
My question.. Is there any advice on how to remove stumps. I've never done it with a backhoe so I'd love to hear any tips or techniques for making the job easier. I've been told to just dig all around the stump and there you go.. others say dig as far out as you can to clip the roots away from trunk as far as possible.
I would like to minimize time and effort, but maximize results.. I know that's not an easy formula for success.
Thanks for any help.
