Tire stump pull fail

Is stump too big, ground still frozen where roots are or not enough tractor.? Tractor is rated 130hp and 10,000 lbs. Seen videos of this technique so thought I’d give it a try. Will try again in a month or two.

I'm far from a stumping expert. For some reason the algorithm keeps recommending these videos. From what i heard, wetting the stump the night before replicates conditions from a hard storm, and makes the soil easier to pull from. Good luck, fuck that stump up.

Thanks for viewing and commenting. Stump is still in the ground as I got busy with other stuff then that tractor sprung a power steering leak that I need to fix. But I’ll give your advice a try.

The distance between the tractor and the tire is too short. Lengthen that distance and the pull vector is more favorable.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Thanks for the tip as well. I used the chain I had handy. This tractor is supposed to be rated at 120hp and I think 10000 lbs. it barely budged the stumps.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppTGpnSLg9yZrZosi=n1_s_u9ta-2ShFXH I’ve got full arsenal of pulleys and winches but they are gonna sit lonely when I put together the four inch square steel tubing laying out back. This just made me smile. I’ve gotta try it. If a bit of a mess is not a problem, a pressure washer will expose the highest main roots. Sawzall to snip ‘em. 🤜🤛

Thanks for viewing and commenting. Too far away from water to pressure wash the dirt away. My tractor has sprung a power steering leak in a hardline so I have to fix that before giving it another try with it.

Hmmm, is that tractor really 10k pounds? looks so small on video... Maybe try a straight pull since tractors dont like pulling something down because it lifts the rear wheels off the ground.

[@whspioneer89]

That’s what the dealer brochure says. It looks small because there’s no cab, 2wd and the operator platform isn’t above the transmission. Your legs straddle the transmission somewhat.

@@whspioneer89 Okay, I would either try no tire or longer chain so you dont lift the tires off the ground as much.

[@whspioneer89]

@@yaykruser I was doing it with the tire because I’ve seen other people posting videos of it and was curious if it worked

[@yaykruser]

@@whspioneer89 Idk if it works but It for sure doesnt on this setup. On a 10 meter chain the extra hight of the tire has no effect on your rear wheels , but on your 1m chain it lifts those rear weels off the ground an you lose grip.

@@whspioneer89 when can we expect a part 2 ?
