Testing the Limits of a Subcompact Tractor Stump Grinder

This video puts two subcompact-tractor stump grinders, a PTO-driven belt-drive unit on a John Deere 1025R and a Ventrac setup, against genuinely tough black locust stumps at a viewer's property. It covers operating technique (directional approach, belt slip management, stabilizer chain importance) and gives a price point for the PTO grinder. Best for owners wondering whether a small tractor can handle hard-wood stumps in real conditions.
