Overview
This is a real-time, warts-and-all field session with a Kubota L4060 clearing trees, not a polished demo. The owner uses a stump bucket and grapple, discovers one tree species has massive interconnected taproots that wear out the loader and aren't practical to dig, then switches to easier trees for visible progress. Also covers a grapple pin fix. Best for owners curious how stump buckets and grapples actually perform against tough root systems.
An owner-operator documenting hands-on land-clearing work on their own property, including honest struggles and mid-project changes of plan.
