Picks of CK30 pulling stumps.

[ecrane99]

I had two large Pine stumps that needed to go. They are now gone. The kioti was a huge help. I'm happy with this tractor.

Your tractor earned its keep on those! Nice job. I should have kept a log of all the jobs I have done with my tractor with an estimate of what it would have cost to hire it done. Not to mention all the manual labor they save.

Nice job on the stumps and photos.

I like pines, I hate oaks.

Oaks in rocky soil are nasty nasty creatures.

Keep up the good work,

Joel

Nice job and nice looking rig you have there.

One thing you might like to add as long as your are digging stumps in that sandy soil is some extension plates for those backhoe feet. It does not need to be all that much bigger to really make a difference.

My dealer made me up a couple of 12 1/2" square pads of 3/8 plate and it made a whirlwind of difference supporting my tractor and backhoe as I dig.

Nice job, stumps will really put a machine to the test. I agree with Rimshot, when I had my BH I added wider pads to the feet and it made a world of difference.

Hey, there are saw marks on those roots, you cheated!

Nice pics. Isn't it great "working" (aka playing) on our toys!!!!

Yes, It was on this forum I learned how handy a sawzall can be with roots.
I will say the kioti was able to rip some good size roots out.

Did the CK30 do some jumping around with those roots? Nice job. I do not have a backhoe on mine but found the bucket handy to dig around some small stumps, and the drawbar handy to pull them right out. Did take some work though. I am sure you had a time with those monsters.

I noted the color matching orange extension cord in one of the pictures. I thought you had the new EV(electric)CK.
