Kioti DK 4710SE HST Tractor Moving Dirt! -

Making space for more wood in the yard with my tractor.

[@noenwarrior1]

Even when you are on vacation hunting time there is stuff to watch and catch up on lol LOVE IT!!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, just for you!

[@philgriswold2133]

I didn't get out and get splittin today, but I did get a big score. My neighbor called and since his mom is in a home they have a woodshed that he said contained some wood I could have. By my count it was right at two face cords of split red oak that had been stored in a dry, ventilated shed for four or five years. Primo free wood right next door. It even had that Woodyard bowling pin sound. The tractor looks like a lot of fun and you're improving your lot. Win, win.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Wow nice batch of wood!!! Sweet!

[@warrenstanford7240]

Tonya toy that’s a blast from the past, I had the dump truck they use in quarries could stand on it.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes Tonka trucks where fun!

[@NB88]

Love my Kioti. 👍 I put a hardened steel cutting edge on the bucket. Best $300 I ever spent. Cuts through rocks, roots, and ice. Plus it saves all that wear on your bucket which is only soft steel. 🍺

[@InTheWoodyard]

Nice! That would be great but after the berm I would probably never use it again.

[@arthurr.2075]

Chris, glad you are really putting your tractor to good use!

[@mickhammer0411]

I agree 100% use the tractor more for your firewood

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, thanks Arthur!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup!

[@nelsonridgefarm]

Oh my gosh! 10K! Amazing! Congrats! -Brad

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Brad, you made it possible with your comments!

[@marcjoseph8300]

Good! nice to see that hill go.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I have a ways to go yet!

[@workingmanrondoyle3287]

Congratulations Chris, You broke her in today. You look like a happy boy ,with his new toy! Have a wonderful day my friend, be safe out there.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, tractor work is fun!

[@tombryan720]

Came out really good

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, Thanks Tom!

[@Richard-Hawkins-1966]

Nice! Looks like you are getting more comfortable using the bucket. And you are definitely using that tractor like the tool it is. I like.....

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks, I am having fun!

[@donaldisberner7779]

Boys love playing with the toys and your doing a damn good job at it. Making room for more cherry and oak logs. Keep the great videos coming. Like the tree swing . Good night Irene and hugs . Don

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Don, see you tomorrow!

[@kennyp507]

Chris, I wrapped a piece of electrical tape around the leveling rod when the bucket was perfectly level to the ground, it makes it a little easier to go off the stick when trying to flatten and skim soil off the ground.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, I will get to that some day!

[@scrhino40]

Well wash it. Like the music. Have a great day be safe.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Wash a tractor? Is that legal?

[@nickcr1312]

Love tractor days!! Have a great day Chris!!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Same here! Have a good one!

[@barrythompson4605]

What a Dirty old man...... looking good Chris

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Barry!

[@joeford7350]

10K, you made it, keep going.

[@InTheWoodyard]

That is the plan!

[@Lifeinthe906]

Tractor seat time is great fun. Nice job on moving that pile. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, lots more to go!

[@Frede201]

Hello Chris congratulations ! 10.000 subscribers

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks!

[@aldredske6197]

Good morning Chris!!😀😀 Man that berm is hard!! It's giving the Kioti a real workout to move it. Nice job buddy!!😀😀👍 TTYL!! Logger Al

[@InTheWoodyard]

It has sat there for 20 years, so it is comfortable there, but I am convincing it to go! Thank Al!

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Great different video today, thanks

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Larry!

[@oakrunacres2564]

As I mentioned before if you want to get serious about putting a dent in that pile rent a toothed bucket for a weekend or now that you have that fancy new impact wrench buy a toothed edge for you bucket and you can put it on and take it off easily. That tractor is not broken in until you get it in some MUD! Lol Dave

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, mud is good!

[@dethmaul]

I can't wait till the berm is gone and the final woodyard is fixed. Look at the bucket sag when the kioti is sitting idle! THAT'S why you don't work under a car without jackstands!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Me too!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

Ken told you years ago to get rid of the weeny saw, get a real saw. Time to jab him back about his weeny tractor. LOL

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup!

[@kennethcarlson8713]

Sounds like a challenge

[@chuck805]

Congrats on 10k subscribers!!!

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Chuck!

[@firewoodathome]

Congrats on 10k. Soon you'll be ripping around on the tractor like your brother.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I hope so! Thank Bill!

[@sawdustacres]

Tractors are just plain neat. -Dave

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, a lot of fun!

[@Frankzeien]

Congratulations on 10K Chris 👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks a bunch!

[@thefirewooddoctor]

I'd be that one customer that would require a photo by the stacks of wood as part of a photo shoot.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, people like it!

[@noelstractors-firewood57]

Tractor works good. But it is the operator that makes it work good. Nice job. Sure do like tractor videos. Did you do the messy locust clean up. Ohhh. Maybe not stacked yet. ? Have a good day. I’m back to plowing my gardens today. My tractor I use for plowing is a 1972 LGT 100 Ford garden tractor, with a Brinley single bottom 10” plow.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes tractor work is fun!

[@tpctrash]

Might have to get one of those bolt on tooth bars if you think Youll be moving dirt a lot more after the berm. Man toys demand more toys!! Lol

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe so!

[@stanleykeith6969]

Great Job Chris, always keeping busy ! Have a Great Weekend Playing in the Wood Yard, Be Safe !🪓🌞!!!🍸🍹🍺🍽 Don't for get to take the Wife out for Dinner and Drinks !

[@pyroman6000]

Hey Chris, you ever get your hands on any Hawthorne wood? Today, I went to dump my ash bucket out back, and stumbled upon a big bunch of what turned out to be hawthorne logs. (I had thought they were locust of some sort) SCORE! Way too wet to burn yet, but they are VERY heavy for their size- it was all I could do to get a couple of them in my truck, and they aren't even that big. The btu charts list it as having one of the highest btu contents. The funny part is I was on my way to pick up another truckload of wood, lol. It was he who identified the wood for me. He ended up loading me up with close to a face cord (I;d asked for a half) of pieces and chunks both. Mostly Ash and Beech, but oak, yellow birch, apple and etc too. Took some doing, but I got it all in my shed- AND still got the lawnmower and cart back in!

[@InTheWoodyard]

I have not cut any Hawthorn but have heard it is good stuff!

[@rustymiller2855]

@@InTheWoodyard yes. And hard as a rock. Tough on chainsaw chains

[@kennethcarlson8713]

Ironwood. Is Hawthorne

[@bhall7997]

That parking brake light is nice !!! , my other brand orange tractor doesn't have that feature. Yes I try move it once in a while with brake on :(

[@dethmaul]

I drove a short hop in my Willys with the parking brake on, because it was one of my first new cars and I was a dumb kid lmao. I was wondering what that spattering, popping smell was when I parked. I had a heart attack of rage and regret when I figured it out x_x

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, my brakes lock up and it does not want to go!

[@InTheWoodyard]

OUCH!

[@brucearney9536]

Nice work !

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Bruce!

[@larryvankirk7423]

Nice job with the tractor and video. Looks like the area you are clearing is getting pretty well packed/compacted. Maybe some rock for the alley way before stacking the area full of wood? Might make it easier to get in there with the trailer to load it out. I know you have a plan.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes gravel!

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

Good job, would be a little easier with a tooth bucket, Take Care 🚜👍🏼🪵

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, you are right!

[@canvasman2307]

Hurray for 10 K and putting the Kioti DK to great use making the berm go away.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Man!

[@SGD3000]

Okay Chris! Its time to wash the ole tractor. I was looking at another youtube video by one of your industry colleagues and was amazed at amount of damage that salt can have on equipment. Some of the metal components on his fairly new wood conveyor were already corroding badly.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, salt destroys the equipment!

[@turklayher4794]

I'm wondering if you could sell that top soil as opposed to using it as fill. I think fill dirt is cheap to buy. I'm thinking you might be able to make a buck, might be worth looking into. Have a great day 😀

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe but I am filling in just a bit not a lot and I want it to grow grass and flowers.

[@danthornton5098]

Looks like fun. 😁

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it is!

[@williamlowry1274]

I want to make sure you realize this. Tractors and the vehicles you are used to are backwards from each other. In cars and trucks you push on the pedal to give it more fuel, and you move the lever to change gears. In tractors you move the little lever to give it more fuel, and push the forward and back pedals to change gears. If you push the go forward pedal harder you are changing to a higher gear and exchanging push power for speed. You have more push power to dig into a dirt pile when you push lightly on the go forward pedal.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks for the tips William!

[@JohnWhite-si4xc]

Chris that looks like some nice top soil i would screen it and sell it

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes maybe but I want it for leveling off my low spots.

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

Well just a dirty sports car (not a beaten one there is a difference) you can tell it gets used with just a tad of abuse but too much as you don't want to brake it.. See you tomorrow.. GNI😊👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Daniel!

[@peterbabcock4568]

Looks like it could be fun

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes it is!

[@coreyriley7160]

G’afternoon Chris. Woodyard is looking more gooder ! Want to come over and level my yard too? GoodNightIrene

[@InTheWoodyard]

One wood yard is my limit!

[@bentwedgestanleybrand5818]

With all that scrap wood looks like you're going to have a bonfire

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, I have a bunch!

[@johncollins500]

Chris I was going ask you before but maybe you have mentioned it or you may have done it but have you ever used or thot of using stacks of firewood for background for your photography??? Just wondering!! A tractor won't be a tractor if it wasn't dirty!!! Lol

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, I use it all the time!

[@jasone679]

Two words... Tooth bar

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes, that would be nice for this job but I would probably never use it again.

[@oustab]

I wonder if it was possible to fill the trailer with dirt and dump it in fewer trips.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe but I think it would be a lot more messing around.

[@tonybunch543]

👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Thanks Tony!

[@georgehilbish1564]

Time for a tractor washing.

[@cjlures8618]

Use dump trailer would save time

[@InTheWoodyard]

Maybe, I am only going 20-30 yards with it.

[@strayfiftynine9151]

10k allrighty then.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I like it a lot!

[@calebturner3694]

Of ur topic kinda today but I've call 4 logging company's down here and no wants to bring me a load of logs they all the sawmills want it all

[@InTheWoodyard]

Just keep trying, maybe you will get some!

[@jackpinesavageadventures3142]

Oh boy! Dirt work.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, I am learning as I go, and having fun too!

[@ralphkanagy4602]
