Front-End Loader B7800 and loader buddy

[magicheater]

I was out roto-tilling a few gardens today with my Agric 65 tiller. On the third job the customer pointed to a 6" stump with what looked like last years growth on it and wondered if I could get it out. I just got my B7800 last year and was impressed the way it handled the tiller. Normally I would be using my L4350, quite a bit larger tractor and I know what it can do stump wise, but I figured I would give it a shot with my new 4' Loader Buddy. 15 minutes later it was out! If I had my normal bucket on I would never had been able to do this. Went back to tilling after disposing of stump and had one happy customer.

Ever thought about putting a grapple on the loader buddy?

Actually I have, but my preference is without. Grapples are more specific use tools. Loader Buddy was designed to handle a wide variety of materials simply, with just the loader functions. No extra hydraulics, just put it on. On the first tilling job today I transplanted a small oak tree for the guy, sorry, no pics. When you don't need a grapple it is in the way. I do so many things with my FEL that Loader Buddy is all I really want on it. Always there, always ready.

I don't really intend to be offensive, but...

For someone who doesn't actually advertise on this site.......you do a lot of advertising on this site.

Have you considered contacting the mod's about being a sponsor?

I have and am still waiting for a reply. I was impressed the way my B7800 handled the chore more so than of the virtues of "the attachment" which I know very well, and also the LA402 loader which has a thread here too. I invite any and all here to PM me if you would like me to refrain from mentioning this attachment again on this site. I will continue to post here regardless of the results of this unofficial poll. Regards and for those that need it, apologies.
