New Stump Bucket in action

TitanSkidsteer · Jun 27, 2014

We just finished making a new HD Titan Stump Bucket and we need some customer photos and videos of this Bucket in action.

Its thicker and stronger than most light weight buckets and your cost is only $675 with free shipping. If anyone needs a stump bucket and has the ability to email us pictures and video of it in use by the end of July 2014, we will refund $150 as soon as we receive them.

See this link for specs of the bucket: Titan Heavy Duty Stump Bucket for Skidsteer Quick Attach Front Loader Tractor

Does anybody sell a stump bucket for a JD Loader -- not skid steer QA? I have a Deere 300CX loader and a use for a small stump bucket. Thanks in advance!

I ordered one up today and should be here next week. Look forward to giving a report!

Are these intended for tractors or skid steers? I have 48" forks and there is no way I could see the tips in the middle to know where I was digging.

I can't see anything up front either, that's why I'm also installing a camera.

Though this is made for the S/S QT, if you would like one of these Stump Buckets, I'll throw in a FREE JD Quick Attach Mount Plate that can be welded to the back to make it compatible with your 300CX loader.

Dave, what kind of camera are you hooking up?

Id be willing to buy and shoot pics/vids if this would work for me to get rid of my mesquites.

I'm getting the AgCam. I have a ton of stumps and figured it's cheaper than a backhoe! Plus if it doesn't work means I can buy a backhoe. Right?

Deerherd, have you purchased from Titan before? I was just on there site and couldn't see much for the picture of the chat guy. I've been watching there site to see when they restock the snow pusher box. lt190b

No, I hadn't ordered from them before. The bucket was shipped and should arrive Tuesday. I'll post some pictures when it arrives.

I'd love to see some pics of your camera setup when you get it done. I've got a Wildkat stump grapple (same thing as your stump bucket but with a grapple lid) and I can't see the business end of it when digging. So I have to do everything by feel. That camera would sure be handy.

Stump bucket arrived in good shape today. Normally I would have loaded it on my forks with the QA bracket closest to the tractor but I noticed it was upside down on the pallet. So I had the driver spin it around on the truck.

When I got it where I wanted it I angled it down to let it slide down the forks til it almost came off. Then I pushed it over pallet and all. Did break the last board on the pallet but the bucket came through without a scratch. (Don't want to be scratching a stump bucket!

)

The only reason I mention this is if it was shipped upright somebody without forks could have driven up and hooked up, so if you order it take note.

Locked up tight on the QA and the replaceable teeth look beefy. Overall looks very well made, can't wait to start digging!

Mine arrives tomorrow! Anxious to pop a few honey-locusts and also get after a few stubborn rocks. I'm just hoping my 4350lb DK50 will have the oooomph to get it in the ground.

Here's a video I did this afternoon, it's a 12" pine stump cut a month ago. Need to learn the best angle to remove the optimum amount of material, a lot depends on how many/how big the roots are. It did get on three wheels a few times but it was on a hill and in some pretty big ruts. I'm pretty pleased for having it one day and will work better when I get the camera, I'm sure. I cut the video to 4 minutes but it really took me 15. I cut out all the times I walked around and looked at the bucket angle!

For some reason the embedded video isn't working on my Ipad, but it is on my pc. Here's a link if you can't see the video. https://vimeo.com/100352990

I think a lot will depend on how hard your soil is and how deep honey locust roots are. I'm sure up to a certain size you may even be able to get it in one try once you perfect your technique. I have been making craters all around my property! Getting pretty good by looking at the bucket indicator but for me it's still a "blind" dig. Can't wait for the camera to arrive.

My tractor with nothing on the 3 pt weighs 9100 lbs.

Interesting - mine was right-side-up on the pallet. I guess the workers had stopped drinking on the job before mine was shipped out.

Great video!!! Sorry about the bucket shipping upside down. We received your info and your refund is on the way! Thanks again! Don't hesitate to let us know if there's ever anything we can do for you.

Ha! I hope not. The good news is, our awesome team of guys that handle the distribution gladly confirmed they would ship them all right side up when I made the request.
