✅ Bobcat Toolcat Tree Stump Removal with DIY Stump Bucket

I show the removal of a ~12in tree stump with my custom made stump bucket. This is a 2016 Bobcat Toolcat 5600 that weighs about 5700lbs and is rated to lift 1500lbs (maxes out at 3000lbs). The Toolcat is a mix between at Tractor, UTV and skid steer. I enjoy its capability to run nearly all skid steer attachments but with the advantage of having a passenger seat (the only 2-seater compact "work" machine I know of). Be sure to watch my other Toolcat video and other projects around the house on my Nater Tater Channel.

Man oh man what a stubborn stump it almost didn't want to go but we all know who really stole this show the 5600 is the way go ,Go Toolcat go 😺 * • * °💫 Nater pop it right out of the way .

Great build. I wonder if you could attack the roots at a flatter angle so the bucket acts more as a wedge rather than a pusher. Maybe those teeth would cut.

Great Job, Well Done!

Love your video. By the way, mine is à 2017 and the weight is 6500 lbs. I add 4 x 100 lbs in the Back of the box to help. Grenat work.

They are great machines. I have a 55gal drum I can fill with water if needed as a ballast in the back but so far it hasn't really been needed. What 100lbs items do you use? I think you mean 5600lbs. The official operating weight for our G-series Toolcat 5600 is 5680lbs per www.bobcat.com/historical-specs

@@NaterTater hi I bought 4 x used tractor conter weight at our massey fergusson dealership. Dont know why but the weight on my vehicle registration (toolcat 5600) show 6500 lbs. Mistake ????

[@NaterTater]

I going with the Bobcat info and assuming your registration is typo'd. Maybe I need to weigh my toolcat and solve this!

I owned a 50 Ton Grove AT 700B. We pulled a Russian elm about that size. It's not good for the crane and dangerous for people. I'd much rather Toolcat it.

I don’t know, you have $50K plus of machine there. For that amount of money I would think you could drive by a 12” stump and have it pop out of the ground by looking at it.

[@NaterTater]

Paid $32.5k for the machine and built the bucket. Would be nice if they popped out for sure! I think I still have room to improve my technique but also having more breakout force like a large skid steer or excavator would help. For $32.5k you could buy a better stump pulling machine...but i use my toolcat for lots of chores and love it.

@@NaterTater, For $32.5K I would probably bite as well. Most the low hour machines I’ve seen are well into the 40’s.
