Kubota BX25
I'm trying to get a small potato garden ready so I can plant asap. Beside dealing with lots of rocks I had to remove a pretty big tree stump at the corner of the proposed garden. The video tells the story.

The BX series gets it done but it takes a bit longer than when using a friends Case 680....:laughing:

While the seat is comfortable and rugged it's a pain to keep switching back and forth when I have to move the tractor for a better angle.

What rpm were you running the tractor for this job?

I'm guessing but about 2500 or so. BTW the potatoes are doing great along with other veggies. I don't have a lot of stumps like this to remove so I just go at it and enjoy it. Took less than 1/2 an hour to get the stump out.

Hey Bob. Great video buddy. Love watching the BX working. Ya it takes a little longer but it sure can do it. Glad to hear the garden is doing well. Great post. Enjoyed seeing it.

Less than 1/2 hour? Must have benn pretty rotten roots. The last time I took a stump out that size from a freshly cut tree, it took me three or four hours with my BX 25. Since then I have bought the ripper tooth, and I'm dying to try it out.

Got a love that BX 25!

Thanks Paul. I just started a new tractor attachment - will let you know when it's finished so you can drop by for a look and a laugh.

Yep I checked my video it was just 24 mins to get it out. I cut the tree off not many days before that and left the stump high enough to get good leverage. Not a lot of large diameter roots but lots of little ones. Didn't use anything but the BX to get it out.

Would love to see it and if there's anything I could help you with just say the word. I doubt very much you'd make me laugh at any of your projects. You do good work sir.

Not to worry. I know this guy. If he told me he removed that stump in one minute I'd believe him. :thumbsup:

You'll like your ripper tooth. I use mine all the time.

It simply amazes me what these small tractors can do , thanks for the video . Would be interesting to see what a ripper tooth adds to the equation .
