Had the opportunity to get some seat time on the mini so I went to work on removing 2 stumps away from an area behind the house. The first one came out rather easily. The second one has proven to be a lot more challenging as the roots at the base spread out very wide not allowing me to dig close. I left a big mess of a hole for another weekend up there but I'll keep working at it. The 8560 picked that stump up like a paper weight, I only wish I had an excavator with matching power :) Here are some pics of the first one. I'll be sure to take more next time I'm at it.

Didn't you get a grill guard with your 8560? How many hours do you have on it? Sure makes an impressive looking rig.

The tractor is really nice! What type of mini ex? I have the same combination but I have larger mini and smaller tractor than yours, MX4700 4wd w/grapple and Takeuchi TB135 w/thumb
