Small stump dug with JD 790 TLB

[sixdogs]

This isn't very exciting but I already have the photos and I know we all like pictures so here goes.
Last year I dug out a couple of 9" walnut stumps and it was a bear.
The gremlins underground were really hanging on tight and I should have taken photos but didn't.
This time I decided to take photos of digging out an 8" apple tree stump in anticipation of a similar struggle.

It didn't happen and the stump was out in 20 mnutes with my JD 790 TLB.
It has to be one of the most efficient small tractors around. Sure, it's a little snug and sure it's gear drive but so what?
Try digging even that woosy stump by hand.

I love---er---really like my JD 790 with #7 JD backhoe.
Bought it used with 90 hours a few years ago.
It has two buckets and this is the smaller one.

Well, I like it sixdoggs!

My 770 has been a great little machine too! Like you said, they are small and gear drive, but they work great. Mine reminds me of a little dog. It's ferocious and energetic, and thinks it's a lot bigger that it really is!

I'd like to get a backhoe for mine, but it really isn't needed right now. Would be a nice toy though!

We could never have avoided anything so beautiful growing up so at age 62 to have
such a possession is a treasure to indeed take care of.
It does seem universal on the TBN that guys take good care of their stuff.

Nice TLB and nice pic's! I'm partial to the 790's myself. :thumbsup:


Looks like that BH is just begging you to add a thumb to it, though!!!

While the 790 deserves credit for the muscle, you deserve credit for keeping your work area well contained. Good work. Great tractor.:thumbsup:
