Great job with the ripper, but no chaps, no helmets and no ear protections, long life to you and your guardian angel.

I bought a tooth for a box blade. I have a 1ton ht10 mini excavator. I just need to get it fitted to it. It works really well on my subcompact backhoe. I did add 3 layers of 1/4 inch plate steel. And made more like a knife. It will cut more then blunt force. It does work. I bolt to bucket so it will go deeper into the ground.

Yes this was a fun day. I normally don't do stump removal jobs, but I might start now with this new ripper. I am really happy with it!

Thanks for the comment! I was really impressed with the ripper and how easily it took these trees down.

Very neat and educational Neal. By any chance have you made a video on how you made the root ripper? I have a K7461 rake bucket I use on my Kubota U35-4 but it looked like the root ripper is a better tool. Thank you for the great video.

Does the ground freeze so hard you can't dig for some portion of the winter ?
@NealORussa Жыл бұрын
No I wouldn't say the ground usually freezes that hard here in Kentucky. Maybe harder digging, but not unable to dig.

Yes sir it was a bit, but at the same time I sold my kx71-3 excavator, kx161-3ss excavator, pt30 track loader and my smaller pj trailer. So I actually came out about even with everything. Where are you based out of?

Will a KX 040 fit on 14ft dump trailer?
@NealORussa Жыл бұрын
I have a 14' dump trailer and I used to haul a kx71-3 in it. I haven't tried to put my kx040 in it. It would probably fit but I'm not sure it would be positioned very well over the axles. I think it would either have way to much tongue weight if you put the boom towards the back and not enough tongue weight if boom stayed forward. You could probably swing the boom and turn the house a bit and maybe get comfortable.

What boots are those your wearing?
@NealORussa Жыл бұрын
Hey thanks for the question! They're a little expensive but they are Justin Commander X-5. They are waterproof, steel toe, lace up tight for support and pretty comfortable. Link to them here amzn.to/3zwNXAS

And when I'm not wearing lace ups I wear Justin stampede steel toe. I have had 3 sets of these boots and they are great. They are what I'm wearing in the majority of my videos. Link to them here amzn.to/3oSsfTk
