The owner shows the actual hole dug, discusses fighting rocky soil, scraping instead of digging in tough spots, and switching techniques to break the stump free before burying it below grade. It's a hands-on, somewhat rough-edged first-person account, best for owners curious how this backhoe handles real digging conditions.
Posted by a first-time tractor owner sharing personal, unpolished footage of using his own TYM T474 on his property.

He chipped away around both sides of the stump, scratched with the teeth, then took bigger buckets of soil to finally break it free.
Yes, the owner decided to dig deep enough to get the stump below ground level, then plans to fill the hole back in by hand.
