Would you allow this person to operate your equipment or work on your site?

you really have it out for this guy. Posting on his youtube and posting links to it everywhere. He paid for it, let him do what he wants to with it. So what if he uses his warranty and costs john deere. John deere doesn't care about your money so why should he

****"JUST FOR THE SAKE OF DISCUSSION*****

​

Say that he does finally crack his crankcase or whatever, then goes go his JD dealer, who for the sake of this argument we will stipulate does not have access to youtube or any other place where this video could be seen, claiming a warrantied failure, or if they have a protection plan like Kubota, it was damaged under the care of that plan, and gets it repaired or replaced for free. Does the money really come out of JD's profits OR is it tacked on to the price of both of our next JD tractors, or added to the protection plan premium, etc.

Plus, if he kills or severely injures himself or a bystander, there goes the cost of medical care skyrocketing upward, and the consumer watchdog agencies will jump on board to insist that small lawn tractors require training classes and an operator's practical exam before granting of a permit, which will need to be renewed every 5 years. Then they will require a tilt switch on all tractors to shut the engine off if it tilts more than X degrees so all the operators that have disabled their operator presence switches are protected from them selves......... ad nauseum.

But Seriously, I have to agree with the folks who have pointed that he is THAT GUY, the one who makes us want to buy new....

Yes, you work with what you have: in the shed and "upstairs".
In this case there was a shortfall in one of those.

If you want to remove stumps, cut them off the tree after you used the tree as leverage to take it out. Saves hours trying to remove something you shouldn't have left in the first place.

So, could I take out the two trees (and their stumps) on the left with a Kubota L4330 tractor with a FEL? See pic below.

Thanks,

I know you're not asking me but I would sertainly think so. The higher up you can put your attatchment point the easyer it'll be on your tractor. Just be sure you're rope, or chain is longer then the tree is tall. ; ) or you can do like I did (in the vid above) and use a pulley so the tree falls away from you.
