I have a 75-3 also. I also got the Danuser Intimidator that would've made quick work of that tree/stump. If you can, check them out if you have much more trail building to do. I've taken out trees/stumps over 12" diameter with it by digging/cutting the roots out, then pushing it over. On the smaller trees, it just lifts them out of the ground like a carrot. As far as changing them out, no big deal..just put the Intimidator in your bucket, drive out to the area where your work is and take it out of the bucket. When you need it, simple disconnection of the hoses and the hydraulic disconnect. Not trying to be a know it all, but, I just cleared out a mile of new fence row through thick Missouri Ozark hills that are very steep and again, the Intimidator made the job so much more easier and quicker. Good luck!
What's the price tag compared to a static stump bucket? I do have more trails to do and the demo video the vendor had on that is impressive. The problem where I was working was the angle of slope where I needed to dig to level things out before I would be able to even apply an attachment like the Danuser Intimidator. How were the slopes and hills where you were using it? Steep enough you were getting nervous on rolling over left or right, or backward? I was a bit disappointed in the hydraulic breakout strength the 75-3 had during the filming. I have heard others on Facebook mention that some 75-3's the bypass hydraulic pressure relief valve is set to low so you don't get "full power" Still not sure how true that is. I have a friend with a 75-2, so we will need to do some comparison testing. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the suggestion. I am a total rookie so all information shared is extremely helpful. I am always looking at various attachments that will make the work easier. Did you film yourself using yours? If so I will look at that too. Thanks again.
@@ahbuildingafarm I am a rookie too. I have hills that are very steep, steeper than a bleacher section at a stadium. As long as I keep the rear of the machine uphill, it’s fine. I paid $3800 for my intimidator with cutting teeth on the outside edge which is a must for me. There are plenty of videos on RUclips that show what they can do. I looked at a stump bucket but the intimidator has that ability plus much more by being able to lift trees out effortlessly. Just shake the tree and the dirt falls out of the roots. On the bigger stumps, I just close the arms and poke the stump and the dirt comes out. My only issue with it is you can get overwhelmed with the amount of trees in short time. Gotta be able to get them to a burn pile or somewhere to put them.
Thanks for the insights. I will investigate further. My priority list is a set of pallet forks, and then maybe a smooth edge bucket for better grading, or some type of grading attachment like Land Pride SG25 Skid Grader for more road work, or something like CID Skid Steer Swing Boom Brush Cutter Attachment so I can cut back brush and branches from the road, driveway, gulleys, up high too. We will see what's next. It will depend on how rapidly we finalize building our final/forever home. Thanks for the suggestion.
