That kubota scl 1000 is such a nice, compact and versatile machine! Nice video as well

Thank you for this excellent video, and for offering this fantastic solution in your rental fleet!

[@tobiascarleton7899]

Incredible videos and information. Thank you!

Looks great.love to see this demoed on the new Holland version. In a real world application the operator would consider a slightly higher boom availability to bowl out any easy cuts then lop the edges here and there. Feeling the stump aggressively for your dinner.😎 Anyone who has this will definitely have a larger version but a second (this) with his best skilled laborer using this secondary knockong out the jobs

[@jaxturner7288]

You should grind going from left to right and then sweep back left and then drop down and do another cut. The teeth are angled to work together cutting while going that way. That’s why you kept loading it down more while trying to cut going from the right to the left.

Looks like that stump grinder was working really well. Too bad that machine and the grinder is more expensive than my BX2680 LOL. Wish my local rental yard had something like that compact track loader and a stump grinder like that...looks like a very stable machine, I've seen the stump grinders on a 3 point hitch on a tractor and the thing is bouncing all over the place....that compact track loader I think is a much better machine for a stump grinder than a tractor...and you can get that compact track loader into a lot of tight spaces where a tractor can't get into.

4:18 @Diesel Creek Sounds like this would be perfect for you. 😁

[@nathanbrodeur]

There are 2 sets of cutters on the wheel you can take a 1 inch to maybe 2 inch thick cut per pass

I’m looking seriously at one of these little Kubota machines

[@westonsmith4984]

They’re pretty great I’ve owned mine for 4-5 months now

[@bladewiper]

Also they are designed and built in north america.

[@MessicksEquip]

Yes, Canada.

[@bobheisserer9046]

Eye protection? Hearing protection?

[@lobosalexis17]

Not necessary

[@JonathanAshworth50]

How would productivity compare to running a comparable unit off the back of a 25hp tractor?

[@justinstickman]

Great video!

[@jimg8218]

What about rock grinding 😀

[@jimmcknight3021]

How much is the stump Grinder and the compact track loader?

[@wildbill23c]

Probably in the neighborhood of $40-50k. Course depends on what other options you get with the compact track loader as far as buckets, grapples, etc. If you buy one of those machines you certainly are going to want some attachments for it...and not sure if Kubota offers one, but there's a trencher attachment that goes on those compact track loaders too....plus post augers, and all sorts of stuff...cool thing with these machines, they're small, so they will fit in places a tractor or regular skid steer can't get into.

[@bryanmccallum4614]

I have a question Neil? Does any body have a stump grinder that fits on category 1 tractor like 3 point hitch and runs off 540 PTO. ???

[@MessicksEquip]

Many, yes. Baumalight has a nice one.

[@wildbill23c]

Yes, but those things give you a very jarring experience, they bounce all over the place.

[@jimmcknight3021]

@wildbill23c Actually, it depends on the tractor. On the 7-30-2023 KZbin of Tractor Time with Tim, he had the tge entry level Baumalight on his 3R, and it didn't jar the tractor around like on his subcompact. I imagine the result would be the same in the Grand L series or the larger L series in Kubota.

[@MessicksEquip]

@@jimmcknight3021 the hiccup with any of these on the 3pt is that the rear hitch does not have downforce, so the grinder can always bounce.

[@jimmcknight3021]

@@MessicksEquip Tim found a way around that. 😆 LOL

[@mattstarzec4143]

Hey Neil. I had an interesting/odd conversation with one of your salesman today over a zero turn. He told me to get in touch with you? I don’t really want to discuss the conversation over a public forum. I am unable to find your email - am I just missing it? Matt
