This is a hands-on, real-task demonstration of the John Deere 385A backhoe on a 3039R pulling tree stumps ranging from 2 inches to 16 inches across, using an 18-inch toothed bucket. The owner walks through technique (scratching away grass, reaching for torque, avoiding bending the tilt ram) and talks through root systems, soil conditions, and machine limits. Good for owners considering stump removal as a real-world backhoe task, not a specs or walkaround video.
