Helping Zach Load A Massive Stump With The Backhoe

[@printer1105]

Hats off to Kubota !! What an impressive lift. My jaw dropped when he picked that log up.

[@rajbeekie7124]

I did not expect that little thing to pick up that log. Amazing

[@bradleybottom6330]

Your a good boss man. Keeping your employees busy.

[@ericjs961]

Chris... You are bringing out the little boy in all of us. Tonka Toys to the rescue!!!!!

[@rixplace1374]

I'm impressed with the generosity and cooperative spirit among letdig18 and his neighbors. reminds me as a kid my older bro just out of the Army started building a house on a lot our granddad gave him, after the cellar was dug concret floor and walls were finished, each Saturday AM neighbors with tools and construction knowledge would appear look at the blue prints ask John for a task set to it and giterdun.For years afterward the neighbor hood 4th july party with firewoorks were on John and his wifes dime.After John died being Irish his wife had an ole fashioned Irish wake at the house. More than 500 great folks attended that Sunday.

Damn that little Kubota is strong as f!

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

I agree, it sure is strong.

[@michaelmactavish1728]

yeah and they are accully more cheaper then other brand on the markket plus they are now released another model of the u56-3 5 ton unit wich are now more kubota excavators to choose from

They use mass too like no matter what the material is. It the weight of those machines like have you seen a wrecking ball it can destroy anything cause it weight is 4 ton if it was plastic or paper or whatever and it was 4 ton then it can demolish anything it just the weight

[@monoxidechild6161]

Homeowner- y'all gonna need a big crane or something to get that stump moved. Zach- I'll call chris hes close and has a backhoe. Chris- hold my beer🤘😎

[@rickbell3402]

Never seen such a big stump moved before. Nicely done!

[@keithdunlap2701]

That went way better than, i thought it was gonna be...lolol..That was a Big Ol Stump !! Always a good thing to help ya friends out..Somebody always wanting something ,ya know it Chris ?? lolol....Have a Great Evening Man !!Stay Safe....

[@mrs.eliteearthworks]

I love any video that starts off with you singing 😁 And DANG! that was a big stump!

[@AquaPeet]

1:10 I thought Zach was going to put that branch in your backhoe cab for gigs :D

[@DigginLife21]

Another FINE JOB my brother!!!

[@bobcriss600]

That stump would make a beautiful table!

[@lw7212]

Zack has also been working on his blade and not just the counter weight😂

[@mantalandworks5779]

Been there. My KX033 loves to dig out stumps it can't pick up. The last one was about that size and I was very fortunate that a contractor was on the same site with a very large telehandler. It looked exactly the same on my trailer. Nice job on the loading!

[@janvandenbos7085]

Nice again Chris and Zach, what a huge stump

[@Digginok]

Finally a backhoe video! Heck of a stump

[@sonicbluecoupe]

I think it’s safe to say, ole zack is hell on the equipment. Just beat it like it owes you money!

[@mischef18]

Not too many things have you stumped bro. Bit of team work worked a treat. Made for a good video too. Stay safe guys

[@george8873]

Getting the stump onto the trailer went much smoother than I thought it might.

[@waltermattson5566]

Now you make a backhoe look like the machine everyone should have.

[@rodneywroten2994]

I was impressed with the mini Kubota also. WOW

[@alexlaughton8900]

Always love seeing some backhoe work. Can we see the rest of how your top soil operation turned out..?

[@donbraden8533]

Nice teamwork guys 😎👍👍

[@janwellington3532]

I didn't think that trailer was going to hold up. Lol. Well done. Always good to be nice too. Cornwall UK.

[@williamhouk6880]

I noticed that big log up against the hydraulic cylinder while lifting it helping to hold it. Just wondering if it may have bent the shaft??? A leaking seal in time will answer my question. I'm an old man and learned a long time ago that, "a big load isn't always a payload". Especially when it comes to paying to fix equipment, or people!

[@DUSTEATER2]

My brother in law always said " drive em like you stole em! " I would not loan him any equipment.

[@gordongonegolfing7129]

This seems a lot of work when you can just dig a big hole beside it and roll it in, it will sink a bit over time but just top up with soil. Job done ✅

[@jamesvwblack]

Jeez that kubota is a beast , I love mine and now I see its even better than I thought !

[@xoxo2008oxox]

Ever notice that when an Oh Sh-t moment comes up, there is always some guy standing in the background, watching you?

[@johndowe7003]

Yup still the best piece of equipment to have

[@STONEDay]

Wow..look at all that grass and those trees!

[@michaelmcclure8673]

Looks like Chris and Zack had a plan coming together on that stumping job !!!! 🤔😁😎

[@RolandElliottFirstG]

I can see Zac bending his ram if he isn;t careful picking up things close like that.

[@lidsman2221]

I thought there was no way in Hell that little machine was going to pick up that huge log and it did it no problem. I bet that tree was at least 200 years old just judging by the stump and the log.

[@DigginLife21]

🔥Now that was a stump. It’s always more fun with a teammate

[@hillbillystomper61]

Been workin on the counterweight 🤣🤣

[@kevingray7917]

Man I can't thank you enough for posting as many videos as you do. I subscribe to very few channels and yours is my favorite in this field. You make these late sleepless nights bearable. The other channels I follow do one a week if that. Hopefully you tube "pays" off for you. Why didn't you get under it with the bucket and chain to to the bucket to lift and set it on the trailer?

[@Crappiestalker]

We had a tree fall across the road and the stump was so big that the county has a tree guy age it and measure . I can't remember the numbers but a mini I was on is a 85hp and with a road loader all we could do to get it on a low boy. Stuck off both sides a 1ft. I hate to clear and run up on one that big. Good job and yes that mini he has is strong hydros

[@MsRaidman]

Nice job man. That was a hugh stump lol.

[@photocontrol]

The Kubota has impressive power!

[@waynetaylor420]

Damn now i want a 57 kubota.... been looking at the 40 but hell for the money , that power....

[@mattywho8485]

Wayne, if you don't need the extra power of the 57, go with the 40 and get the six-way blade! It's the greatest addition you can get on an excavator.

[@waynetaylor420]

@@mattywho8485 6 way is not an option on the 57?

[@Chris_In_Texas]

Where's the 220 when you need it! 🍺

[@rakeempeace2991]

I can't believe that mini excavator picked up that big log but I don't think it can handle that stump tho

Who remembers last Spring when it was dry and dusty?

[@williamgraham8809]

Like a dog chasing a car, I've got it, now what the hell do I do with it?

[@phillipkinnard4266]

John Deere is underpowered as can be especially in their non ag tractors/equipment, in my experience. That backhoe wouldn't hardly move the stump, & the mini ex was doing a whole lot more, & is a whole lot stronger. Like "Dirt Monkey" says, " a swiss army knife not really good at anything." I have a small kubota backhoe, I hate it, ground clearance is horrible, like the JD tractor I had, extremely underpowered

[@earlsmithson4749]

Well no question Zack can operate his “K” machine, however no one operates a machine as smooth as Chris.

[@mattywho8485]

Really ????Chris is the worlds best operator ? give me a break, there are plenty of operators just as good as him.

The only difference in this video compared to your latest one is that it's not raining.

[@davebrittain9216]

I once hired a guy with a backhoe to dig out and load a huge poplar stump for me. I had a brand new 4x8 box trailer at the time and it would barely fit in it. I was so pissed because he picked it up and it was all it could do to lift it too. He held it about 4 feet from the trailer and dropped it in. It must have weighed over 1200 pounds. Could have gently sat it in there. He completely squashed one side of the trailer. He said oops. Idiot!

[@donnytucker]

Imagine loading a redwood or sequoia stump.

[@gwenb4531]

It's on there.

[@SawmillerSmith]

Stump wood can be very valuable .

[@als8518]

[@scottfortune9016]

What's he doing with the stump? Taking it to the dump or using it for something?

Good Lord I hope Zach isn't still renting that machine! I was hoping to see a nice brand new John Deere 60G in this video!
