Oh yeah good ok sawhaul! Thanks Kenny for being so involved!

Kenny is a great guy!

[@terrymangum3914]

Hank, enjoyed the video. Brandell is a good neighbor to come over and grind your stumps. That stump grinder did a number on that pine stump.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

It really did well. I thought it was a nice piece of equipment. Glad to see your light show doing well!

[@ronpage101]

I'm with the others. I love listening to a machine work, and in real time. I really appreciate you and your buddy doing this video. I've got many stumps to grind, it would cost me a small fortune to have someone else do it. I got a quote for $1,200 a day for stump grinding. This should be the ticket for my Kioti 2610 HST. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks 👍

[@FredFlintstone7]

I own this Stump Grinder as well. Hands down the best implement I own. I have used on at least 200 stumps so far. It is easy to use and very addictive! I replaced a few teeth because of rock wear but other than that it works great.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Nice work that Woodland Mills grinder does. I've seen some of their products in action and they make some beefy equipment. Thanks for the video, Hank. Full watch.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Thank you Don. Hope you had a good holiday weekend. Take care.

[@brandellfleming3225]

I was impressed with the build, for sure. The slip clutch, any moving part or pivot is greasable, easily serviceable teeth. Great machine.

[@houndsmanone4563]

You're right, Brandell. The slip-clutch is a neat feature. It sure beats changing shear bolts or damaging an expensive PTO. Easy carbide tooth replacement is a factor. The teeth looked like you could rotate them 4 times to use all 4 sides. Heck, I forgot to ask Hank how long it took to grind that stump below ground level. Have a good one, B.

[@brandellfleming3225]

@@houndsmanone4563 you know, I never thought about the possibility of rotating the teeth! When it comes time to replace, I may just look at doing that! A stump that size to just below grade like we did (1-2") usually takes 10-15 minutes. The issue is that once you do so much, you have to get off and move away the shaving to see if you missed anything. I did a few Live Oak stumps that were 48-60" in diameter, along with exposed roots. Those took upwards of an hour or more. The larger stumps really require two people, one as operator and one as spotter to be efficient.

[@houndsmanone4563]

@@brandellfleming3225 Yep, that makes sense, Brandell. Thanks for filling me in on the time it takes to grind a stump. I'm loaded with stump remnants on my land so I may try to totally remove them with an excavator or just my backhoe. I guess it depends on how energetic I feel (smile). Have a fine week and thanks again.

[@SakimasRidgeHomestead]

That's a extremely useful implement! We have tons of stumps from the logging a couple years ago, this might be a cost comparable option to having someone come in and grind all of them. Thanks Hank!

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Yeah, now that I've seen what it can do, I really need to look at getting one.

[@brandellfleming3225]

You might get lucky and find one used, that how I bought this one. It comes in handy for sure!

[@SakimasRidgeHomestead]

@@brandellfleming3225 Found one on Facebook marketplace for $2000, might be able to talk him down some..........

[@brandellfleming3225]

@@SakimasRidgeHomestead that isn't too bad. That's what we paid for this one used. New is $2300, plus $300 shipping. Mine came with the extra set of teeth, too, which are $99. If it's not been used much, I would say it would be fair, but go for the best deal possible!! The fella I bought mine off of used it to grind his stumps and moved it on. But he also had a shuttle shift, which isn't recommended due to the operation principle. Woodland Mills told me that they have many like this, where shuttle shift owners buy them and aren't satisfied despite the warning that HST is highly recommended.

[@4BlessingsFarm]

Pretty cool stump grinder. I have been looking at a ck4010 myself.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

its a nice tractor and a nice stump grinder! Thanks for watching Ed.

[@brandellfleming3225]

It's a good combo for sure! I can't say enough good things about the ck4010hst. It's been great at everything I've thrown at it.

[@HomesteadJay]

Hey Hank! Cool video! I know I spent a lot of time trying to remove small(ish) stumps from my trails and I feel something like this on my Kubota would make that way easier! Thanks for sharing! Ill add this to the wish list LOL. I like how he said "finance department" im sure that means his wife LOL

[@brettyoung7377]

Have the same stump grinder on my Kubota L4701 and it works great. Just a friendly heads-up that according to the Woodland Mills WG24 operating manual, in your video you are using the stump grinder incorrectly. They state you should always start grinding the stumps from right-to-left and never through the center of larger stumps or left-to-right as you did here in this video. How much of a difference does it make? No idea as I know I've done it incorrectly many times, but figured I'd pass this along.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Thanks for the tip! have a good one!

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

WOW! That's probably how many I would have to do. That's great to hear.

[@brandellfleming3225]

That's a heck of a number of stumps. It would be a heck of a time to grind them all at once, though. 3 or 4 is about all I want to do at a time.

[@buddpell]

Type error: I own a 2538 Mahindra with cab, grapple up front. clearing 4 acres working one year.

Hey Hank, why didn't you tell me we were recording a video?!?!? My wife won't be happy with my outfit choice! Glad I could help out with one of about a thousand stumps! Maybe we will have to do it again sometime.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Hahaha!!!

[@BearBottomAcres]

Do you have any stump grinding recommendations that don’t require a tractor?

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Hire someone? That's we did for about 30 stumps. I made a video on it in my land management playlist 😊

[@TheManhu01]

The Kohler 14 horsepower 9-tooth stump grinder works great you can pick one up for about 1500$

[@inthedarkwoods2022]

Would it work on a kubota 2501

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

yes

[@nixran]

I understand you cannot use one of these without a hydrostatic transmission. Which is too bad for me as I have a shuttle shift and cannot move slow enough without burning the clutch up.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

I have a gear drive Mahindra 4540. I'd try it. 😁 But I see your point. Never thought of that.

[@brandellfleming3225]

That is how I got this one. The guy had a shuttle shift Mahindra 30ish HP machine. He was able to make it work for him to grind his dozen or so stumps from Hurricane Michael. But extended use with a shuttle would probably result in damage. Plus it would be a general pain to use!

[@lilly933]

I gave a mahindra 40 horsepower and I was all set to buy this stump grinder till I found out that hydrostatic drive is pretty much manditory Pretty disappointed

[@AJmx2702001]

Looks like a nice easy to use tool and for the price I see not too bad at all just a shame they don't make a larger model for my 120 horse tractor

How bad of an idea would it be to use one of these with a quick hitch?

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Hmm. I don't know. We had it on Pat's easy hitch

[@valleytractorservices9310]

@@Hfoutdoorsyt thanks for the quick reply! My thought is that with the standard quick hitch, there's just 2 spring loaded fingers for the 2 bottom pins. If they moved (I've had it happen with a tiller), the grinder would become disconnected with a bunch of momentum in that wheel plus the pto pulling to one side!

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

@@valleytractorservices9310 yeah I'm totally with you. And I would be inclined to probably take my QH off if I was to put it on my tractor. That's definitely something to consider.

Not bad at all. Once you figure out the rhythm/pace you want to attack the stump with, you're good. I seriously couldn't believe how easy it was the first time I used it. You're gonna get a lot done with it.
