@@TractorTimewithTim Not sponsored, but there is a hydration drink called BodyArmor that is wonderful. They have a low calorie version as well. Has electrolytes and vitamins. I usually drink one for every 3-4 pints of water. Seems to help a lot.
Tractor Time with Tim - that Diet Pepsi is worse then the regular Pepsi, Aspartame is know to cause headaches and been known to cause other health problems, and a Dr. in St. Louis, found it also causes suicidal behavior, you might want to read up on it, I couldn’t find 1 thing good about it, when my dad asked me to copy off some information about it.
The joys of getting older. The things we use to be able to do in our youth without thinking about is fading into the past. I think this is a prime opportunity/reason to be upgrading to tractors with cabs to keep you cool and safe. 😊
I love my Baumalight stump grinder, Tim. Your videos talked me into purchasing one a few months ago. So far, we've cut about 200 pine stumps with it and only had to replace two teeth so far. There is certainly a learning curve but once you get used to it, you can fly through them. Always great to see your videos, Tim. Keep up the great work! Take care of yourself!
I absolutely love your humor TIm....83 more times and you'll have it! That is the way to encourage the young man. Firm believer in get on there and try it. Christy to the rescue!
Tim, what you describe sounds like either heat exhaustion or dehydration or both. The head ache is a symptom of both, but the feeling hot suddenly leans me more to the heat exhaustion.
I was a Scout Master and that is what I have seen. Slow down and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Make sure when you pee it's not dark yellow as it's a good sign of it.
July was brutal as far as temperatures. I feel your pain. My garden time was severely curtailed this year. I found I was soaking through shirts in an hour and had a difficult time staying hydrated. Seems it's getting worse as I get older. Hope you're feeling better Tim.
Take it easy Tim we as your fans would understand if you need a little time to get better. After all you give us great videos. Stay healthy God bless your family.
Tim can I just say thank you for posting these videos just before I go to sleep. Around 10PM here in Southern Australia. I hopefully dream of tractors!
At first it looked like you guys were pretty aggressive with the stump grinder. But after watching the video, I'm pretty impressed on how deep and fast you can go with it. As far as the headaches, I found that having a bottle of water and taking drinks at regular intervals whether or not you think you need to will put off the headache/dizziness. You may feel a little bloated if you drink too much, but it beats the alternative. Stay healthy my friend.
Nice video Tim and I hope you are feeling better . My wife has high blood pressure and she was also getting the same symposiums as you and it was hard to diagnose because her blood pressure would go back to normal at the doctors . so she had to keep checking it her self all the time to get to know what it was really doing and she got some really high readings .
I have a little Kardia EKG tester. After working in the sun in 93F heat on Sunday, I got my first abnormal reading in three years, "unclassified". After a little rest and some water, it went back to normal, but you have to take it easy when it is hot.
Tim, you probably were in the heat exhaustion to heat stroke stage and usually caused by lack of drinking enough water on those hot days, just drink more water and you should not have that issue again, love the videos.
I have been looking around at compact tractors for quite some time now. I just went and bought a new Johnny 2 yesterday. I ended up going with the 2038r in large part to your videos. Thanks for all the great content, and keep up the good work.
Glad that your heart checked out good. I sure your Dr. Probably warned you about the heat. Heck, I still have to remind myself that I can't take as much of the got weather like I used to. I am sixty turning sixty-one the twenty third of this month. I can get soaking wet of sweat just checking my ambulance in the morning. Too much air conditioning for me. Plus the age ain't helping either. Drink plenty of fluids and keep some Gatorade handy. But I will get through it and many prayers for you, cause it is unsettling to realize we just can't take the heat anymore. Stay safe!
“Amusement park for tractors”, love it. Neat folks, a beautiful place and a “cool” video except for the heat. 90 degrees and humidity make for a brutal mix. Glad to hear you got checked out with a clean bill of health. Blessings!
Tim take a gallon of water and slice up a lemon or two! Shake that up for a little bit. Then add a teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt. Do that the night before and place in the refrigerator. I started drinking that when I worked in a forge shop. That is actually better for you than drinking Gatorade. Give it a try and it helps with you being thirsty. A nutritionist told me to do that!
Thanks Tim. I have to agree the stump is a tricky question. Interesting to know if you would have less settlement after years when the stump rots or if the digging out , filling and resulting settlement from the fill. Not to mention that pulling stumps is probably one of the worst operations on a small machine. Best to you and your family as well. Hope all is well with you guys - big condolences for you for your Dad, I know the loss too well!
I think you did it right, Tim, to let them try out first, they got it, with practice they would be as good as you and Christy, that thing is practical! Hope you get to feel well soon, but I think its just a case of hot weather, it gets to me like that as well
I’m not sure how old you are but I’m 56 and I can’t tolerate the heat like I used to. It gets hot and humid and we must drink lots of fluids. Glad you are well now.
The stump grinder did a great job! Sounds like the heat got to you, hope you're feeling better Tim. I recently saw the add for Washington Tractor with you in it!
Sam learning on his own is no different than Tim learning on his own :D That "girl" is a LOT more comfortable running tractors and attachments than she was a couple of years ago. All it takes is "seat time".
i have a backhoe on my 1025r and i have dug many stumps from big to small. in order to get the really big stumps you have to get away from the stump at a point that you can bust the roots which on big stumps can be some distance away from the stump for a small tractor. by doing it that way it goes much faster and easier. the problem with a backhoe is when you have other trees near the stump that you dont want to harm by digging a big circle around the stump plus stumps may be near other obsticles below ground level that wont let you dig a big circle around the stump, in order to break all the roots loose. thats where a stump grinder works great because you dont have to go very much below the surface in order for it to be out of the way. in either case personally i enjoy it more if it takes longer because i love working with the tractor, npot admiring it in the shed.
Well according to my doctors and family I am no longer allowed to watch the News or most talk shows, because it sends my blood pressure and temper through the roof. I am also no longer allowed to cut the grass at any temperature above 88° I guess that last Heat exhaustion scared everyone but me. PTSD and extreme Heat sensitivity don't mix.
We have two kids in daycare, so we've had 4 COVID tests between the two of them (getting sick is what kids do...especially 1 year olds). All negative, thankfully. But every time I call the Mayo Clinic hotline to ask if we should get a test, they remind you to quarantine while waiting for the results, how to minimize the risk of transfer between family members, etc. The most recent time they told me to remember to turn off the news once in a while and maybe meditate instead. So issues related to the news must be getting really apparent to the medical community for that bit to get added to their script.
Glad to hear you're consulting professionals to try to figure out what's going on. About a month ago my brother spent the day pushing himself outside trying to finish their backyard patio project. Mid/late afternoon, he thought he was experiencing heat exhaustion and went inside to cool have and hydrate. As the evening went on, he got worse and worse and eventually started acting weird. So his wife took him to the hospital. The quickly diagnosed him with low sodium/water poisoning (I think it's called Hyponatremia). He spent the weekend in semi unconscious and having random seizures while they tried to get his sodium back up. Then he had short-term memory loss issues. They eventually decided he had low sodium and rhabdo. After about 5-6 days he was finally well enough to come home. He's mostly fully recovered now, but isn't allowed to drive for 3 months due to the seizures. I guess my uncle has chronic low sodium issues so he has to remember to drink Gatorade or something when working outside to stay on top of it.. This was a first for my brother and he grew up throwing bales and such on the farm like the rest of us (but now he's a sit-on-you-butt-all-day engineer like me). Hopefully it's a one-time ordeal for him. So yeah, take care of yourself. The issues you can have from working outside in the heat are no joke.
Great video on all the property. I don't see the 2038 jumping around like the 1025 while running the stump grinder. Weight and power must make a huge difference. I like digging the stumps out because you will continually fill over the stump as it rots under ground for 20 years
Tim, I hope you figure out what is going on with your heath! Like some others have said, sounds like you need to drink more water. I have had headaches in the summer from not enough water. Christy, keep an eye on Tim for us!
If you buy dried beef, the kind in the glass jar, when you start feeling that way eat a couple slices of that. Something about the salt and protein makes my issues go away. Especially when cutting Timber in the summer. Also try sipping some green tea, cold of course and drink warm water to prevent shocking your system
I have never left a stump in the ground. Either backhoe and push over or if I have the trackloader on site just roll the root ball out of the ground. I like to leave 10-12 ft above ground to use for leverage. I just took down a large ash tree and probably would not of had to of done any backhoe digging but the roots coming up would have disturbed a large area. Usually by the time I get the tree all burnt up I can have the root ball pretty well gone also,, liberal applications of old diesel fuel helps as well. A couple years or so ago I got to see a commercial roofing guy hauled down off a roof after what was thought to of been a heat stroke. He looked so bad we wondered if he would even make it. Two days later he was back on the roof, he spend a night in the hospital where they got his fluids all fixed up and made sure he did not really have a stroke.
CNN and Kabota commercials, I busted out laughing,!! Good humor. Love it! Been watching you guys grind in several videos, ruffly how long do the teeth last?
Yea, that's definitely a hard stump. I've done black locust and you can tell your first cut how the rest is going to go. If it looks like you're cutting into it with a dull chainsaw it's going to be a rough day.
Whenever I need stumps ground, I have a professional stump grinder do it. He does it very reasonable. He grinds them real deep, no need for a backhoe. In 20 years, I have spent much less than $2500.
Tim I believe you can grind those low cut stumps with the mulcher you showed in the previous video. I do it with my skid steer mounted mulcher. It's slow about as fast as a stump grinder.
HST is almost a must for this attachment. I don't think my gear drive Tractor goes slow enough even in low/low, so it would require constant feathering with the clutch.
Damn I'm going to tell you exactly what's going on it's hotter than hell and this temperatures are just kicking everybody's butt especially down here in Southeast Texas our average is about 95 to a hundred
The older we get the more the heat & humidity affects us. Headaches, muscle cramps, and nausea are signs of heat exhaustion and it’s a warning sign to get out of the heat and cool down and hydrate. Avoid drinking coffee and soda and drink lot’s of water hours before going out in the heat and continue drinking water and Gatorade while you are working in the heat. I was a UPS driver for 30 years and the summertime heat was brutal and that’s how I delt with the heat.
Tim I really enjoy you excellent videos with the final bible messages. I have a question for Katriel. I know she is studying plant biology at Purdue University . I would like to ask her if the smoke from the wild fires in the wine country around Napa Valley would change the taste of the wine. Thank you for the great family values you provide in your videos! Wayne from Wisconsin
The internet says that smoke can change the taste by being absorbed through the skin of the grape. Katriel was thinking it might have longer term impact to the soil. ...but I would think this is negligible.
Tim I was about to address that you dig out stumps for what you plan to do in that area (building site, garden and such) and as I start to type, you stole my thunder and expressed those items!
Christy takes charge. My wife would just tell me I need to do a better job. One of your responses mentioned diet pepsi. The caffeine dehydrates you. Try ice water, lemonade, or sometng like root beer or 7up if you want it carbonated. Stay well, stay in the shade and use your fan.
I looked at this style of grinder before I bought my tractor (MF GC1723E), but ultimately decided to go with the Woods TSG50 Stump Grinder. This is one of the other styles you mentioned in the video where you park and use the hydraulics to swing back and forth. I have done around 45 red pine stumps, a few white pine stumps, with just a few oak. I do find this particular design advantageous especially in tighter spots versus the style you have, however it appears it performs about the same for bite size and load on the tractor. I have upgraded from the standard sandvik teeth to the Saber Tooth from New River Equipment. It has made a huge difference in the smoothness of the grind, though I can't yet comment on the life of that tooth. Might be an easy upgrade to get more performance out of your machine too?
Lol. I don’t know why but this stuff makes me happy. I must’ve been abused by a tree stump as a child. 😂 The heat and humidity gets to you and I find the older you get the more things like hydration matter. Are used to go out and work in the sun till I would pretty much overheat and then just go drink some water and be OK but it’s too much now, if I don’t hydrate properly and try and stay cool it will catch up with me pretty quick. I also find that eating different things in the summer helps, I just don’t like greasy food in the summer and eat more tropical stuff and somehow that seems to help. Are usually just try to burn them out but I can just leave them there and let it rot after that, sometimes you’ve got to get rid of them to pour concrete or whatever. It would be interesting to see all the different types of stump removal. I saw one on a skid steer that you pushed down into the center of the stump and it kind of split it in the ground so it could just be dug out easily. And of course there’s the age old explosive. Maybe you should do a stump removal episode and try them all. 😜
I'm curious about maintenance of the stump grinder! I live in CT and we grow rocks here. A stump grinder would be an amazing asset to what I do with the 1025R. I'm planning on ordering one in February or March. How long do the teeth last? Can you sharpen them verses replacing them? What type of regular maintenance need to be done? Also I would recommend looking at Groundkeeper II hand rakes. I use them to clean up after a tree removal. I think that they would work perfect for dealing with those wood chips. Thank you for the great video's. God bless
I always see operators making their cut on the pull but it appears that there may be cutters on both sides of the cutting wheel so my question is are you able to cut on the push as well? I'm thinking it won't cut as smooth on the push hense why most have been cutting on the pull but am thinking that a shallow push cut may speed thing up.
As a non related sidebar, Tim, have you seen the All American Sharpener for mower blades? It's a jig that mounts to a table that holds the mower blade and a 4.5" angle grinder precisely. I was thinking of buying one but would wait if you could arrange a TTWT discount ;^) I'm a machinist it looks like a great product for those of us not using the self sharpening blade. Don
Hey Tim could you possibly help me find a video of yours I can't find it? It's the one where you talked about the kind of microphones you and Christy use where you guys can communicate with each other? I used talk to text I'm sorry Christy if I spelled your name wrong or if it's spelled your name wrong. Hey what do you know it's spelled it two different ways :-)
Weight, no offense I'm hefty too, and heat dont mix well my friend. I've found lots of cool water and a Gatorade or 2 throughout the day helps. Also a huge cheeseburger doesn't help much, but we all love cheeseburgers. I say cool water, because ice cold water might send you into shock if you're to bad off. Especially if you pour it on yourself.
Hi Tim, I was wondering if you ever looked at the 3P24 from Baumalight? It spins the same size disc as the 1P24 but they're calling for a greater horsepower tractor. I want to ask them why, and if it could be run on a smaller tractor like Kubota B2601, but they don't really have contact info for questions on their site.
@@TractorTimewithTim A B2601 can be factory-fitted with two rear remotes. So the question is really about horsepower, I think (I don't think weight should be an issue).
Well, the 3 point needs to be able to pick up the 3P24. Not sure it would be able to do so. It might, but I would want to double check...the weight will be much further back than 24”, so the written specs will not be directly helpful. If you try it, I would be interested in seeing the results!
never see you guys drinking any water or power aide on these hot days like this please do watch closer to how much you are drinking hope you get to feeling better tim
Hope you're feeling better Tim. I was just wondering how much that grinder cost when you said. Not sure my finance committee would approve that but I think I'll ask anyway then the new landplane with rippers I really want won't look so bad and I'll probably get that as a consolidation prize. 😆
Hello Tim my name is Ethan I am thirteen and I was busy looking at your truck and trailer videos I run my own lawn care company and I am looking at a 1025r for compactness or a 4052r for working. My question is do you have a cdl license for your 28ft bee wise trailer. Can you please tell me im just curious thanks
I do NOT have a CDL. Given the rules, I cannot legally leave Indiana for a commercial project without a CDL, or DOT registration on my F350. If I stay in-state, Indiana has a loophole which allows me to avoid DOT or CDL as long as my weight (or GVWR) does not exceed 26,000lbs. I hope that makes sense.
@@TractorTimewithTim Hello Tim I have been a subscriber for about 5 years now. Thanks for the information about that and the cdl. We have the same laws here in my state thanks time for everything please keep up the work love the content.
Tim take care of yourself. Do you take any medications including over the counter items if so be sure to check safety warnings to be sure there are no sun or heat warnings. But with the higher to extreme heat drink more fluids and be mindful of electrolyte intake sounds like dehydration heading towards heat exhaustion.
Tim, Could you attach the Baumalight 1P24 to a 1025 or 2025? Or do you need the bigger tractor? Or does Baumalight have a smaller grinder for the 1025?
I have both the 1p 24 and the 3 p 36. Both have served me well but in Canada costs was $4500. And $9700. Respectfully. Now both require knowledge and common sense
Do away with Social Media and it is an instant stress relief. Although you need to keep the RUclips because without tractor porn I would be dealing with more stress.
Problems in your neck can give headaches. Looking backwards =bad. I had 1 headache for 9 days, Tylenol and aspirin wouldn't touch it. Went to chiropractor for the first time not thinking it would help and he adjusted my neck and went home. 30 minutes later headache was gone. I get the cnn joke ;^)
I felt that way a couple years ago. Stopped drinking sweets and forced myself to drink as much water as I could. It helped tremendously
Interesting. Maybe gonna have to quit my caffeine free Diet Pepsi!

They make baseball bats out of ash. Its really dense. That grinder works a lot faster in some of the other videos. Good job team Tractortime 😊
Not any more. They moved to maple. The ash borer has damaged too many ash trees.

If you buy dried beef, the kind in the glass jar, when you start feeling that way eat a couple slices of that. Something about the salt and protein makes my issues go away. Especially when cutting Timber in the summer. Also try sipping some green tea, cold of course and drink warm water to prevent shocking your system
I have never left a stump in the ground. Either backhoe and push over or if I have the trackloader on site just roll the root ball out of the ground. I like to leave 10-12 ft above ground to use for leverage.
I just took down a large ash tree and probably would not of had to of done any backhoe digging but the roots coming up would have disturbed a large area.
Usually by the time I get the tree all burnt up I can have the root ball pretty well gone also,, liberal applications of old diesel fuel helps as well.
A couple years or so ago I got to see a commercial roofing guy hauled down off a roof after what was thought to of been a heat stroke. He looked so bad we wondered if he would even make it. Two days later he was back on the roof, he spend a night in the hospital where they got his fluids all fixed up and made sure he did not really have a stroke.
CNN and Kabota commercials, I busted out laughing,!! Good humor. Love it! Been watching you guys grind in several videos, ruffly how long do the teeth last?
Still on first teeth.
CNN and Kubota commercials would've done it to me too.
Sounds like heat exhaustion possibly. We're not as young as we think we are.
Yea, that's definitely a hard stump. I've done black locust and you can tell your first cut how the rest is going to go. If it looks like you're cutting into it with a dull chainsaw it's going to be a rough day.
Whenever I need stumps ground, I have a professional stump grinder do it. He does it very reasonable. He grinds them real deep, no need for a backhoe. In 20 years, I have spent much less than $2500.
Tim I believe you can grind those low cut stumps with the mulcher you showed in the previous video. I do it with my skid steer mounted mulcher. It's slow about as fast as a stump grinder.
We’ll try it on one soon. Of course, the stump grinder is cheaper.
HST is almost a must for this attachment. I don't think my gear drive Tractor goes slow enough even in low/low, so it would require constant feathering with the clutch.
You need to have an assistant w/ a backpack blower to blow the chips away from the wheel so you can see what you're doing.
I like your new video today you did a good jop today
Damn I'm going to tell you exactly what's going on it's hotter than hell and this temperatures are just kicking everybody's butt especially down here in Southeast Texas our average is about 95 to a hundred
And it's not you we're all having problems heat exhaustion
The older we get the more the heat & humidity affects us. Headaches, muscle cramps, and nausea are signs of heat exhaustion and it’s a warning sign to get out of the heat and cool down and hydrate. Avoid drinking coffee and soda and drink lot’s of water hours before going out in the heat and continue drinking water and Gatorade while you are working in the heat. I was a UPS driver for 30 years and the summertime heat was brutal and that’s how I delt with the heat.
Tim I really enjoy you excellent videos with the final bible messages. I have a question for Katriel. I know she is studying plant biology at Purdue University . I would like to ask her if the smoke from the wild fires in the wine country around Napa Valley would change the taste of the wine. Thank you for the great family values you provide in your videos! Wayne from Wisconsin
The internet says that smoke can change the taste by being absorbed through the skin of the grape. Katriel was thinking it might have longer term impact to the soil. ...but I would think this is negligible.
Tim I was about to address that you dig out stumps for what you plan to do in that area (building site, garden and such) and as I start to type, you stole my thunder and expressed those items!
So, that stump grinder has greazable pins, huh? :)
Glad to hear your pump is in good working order. The title worried me a bit!
Here in Florida heat index is 108
Makes me appreciate my mini excavator seeing this thing take so long to grind just 6" below grade. I'll pass on one for my tractor.
Christy takes charge. My wife would just tell me I need to do a better job. One of your responses mentioned diet pepsi. The caffeine dehydrates you. Try ice water, lemonade, or sometng like root beer or 7up if you want it carbonated. Stay well, stay in the shade and use your fan.
Been drinking caffeine free Diet Pepsi.
oh yeah i enjoyed watching it :-)
I looked at this style of grinder before I bought my tractor (MF GC1723E), but ultimately decided to go with the Woods TSG50 Stump Grinder. This is one of the other styles you mentioned in the video where you park and use the hydraulics to swing back and forth. I have done around 45 red pine stumps, a few white pine stumps, with just a few oak. I do find this particular design advantageous especially in tighter spots versus the style you have, however it appears it performs about the same for bite size and load on the tractor. I have upgraded from the standard sandvik teeth to the Saber Tooth from New River Equipment. It has made a huge difference in the smoothness of the grind, though I can't yet comment on the life of that tooth. Might be an easy upgrade to get more performance out of your machine too?
Lol. I don’t know why but this stuff makes me happy. I must’ve been abused by a tree stump as a child. 😂
The heat and humidity gets to you and I find the older you get the more things like hydration matter. Are used to go out and work in the sun till I would pretty much overheat and then just go drink some water and be OK but it’s too much now, if I don’t hydrate properly and try and stay cool it will catch up with me pretty quick. I also find that eating different things in the summer helps, I just don’t like greasy food in the summer and eat more tropical stuff and somehow that seems to help.
Are usually just try to burn them out but I can just leave them there and let it rot after that, sometimes you’ve got to get rid of them to pour concrete or whatever. It would be interesting to see all the different types of stump removal. I saw one on a skid steer that you pushed down into the center of the stump and it kind of split it in the ground so it could just be dug out easily. And of course there’s the age old explosive. Maybe you should do a stump removal episode and try them all. 😜
Tim and Christy, you should have told him about the RUclips channel "Tractor Time with Tim" where he could see all types of tractor attachments work.
Love the comment about cnn and kubota. That was awesome..
I'm curious about maintenance of the stump grinder! I live in CT and we grow rocks here. A stump grinder would be an amazing asset to what I do with the 1025R. I'm planning on ordering one in February or March. How long do the teeth last? Can you sharpen them verses replacing them? What type of regular maintenance need to be done? Also I would recommend looking at Groundkeeper II hand rakes. I use them to clean up after a tree removal. I think that they would work perfect for dealing with those wood chips. Thank you for the great video's. God bless
At least the doctors didn't put you on a cheeseburger-free diet! Well wishes to you.
I always see operators making their cut on the pull but it appears that there may be cutters on both sides of the cutting wheel so my question is are you able to cut on the push as well? I'm thinking it won't cut as smooth on the push hense why most have been cutting on the pull but am thinking that a shallow push cut may speed thing up.
There are no cutters on the back.
There are cutters on the bottom.
As a non related sidebar, Tim, have you seen the All American Sharpener for mower blades? It's a jig that mounts to a table that holds the mower blade and a 4.5" angle grinder precisely. I was thinking of buying one but would wait if you could arrange a TTWT discount ;^) I'm a machinist it looks like a great product for those of us not using the self sharpening blade.
Don
This Tim is going to have plenty of “tractor time” starting early next month. A rookie operator at 68!
Hey, congratulations!!
Hey Tim could you possibly help me find a video of yours I can't find it? It's the one where you talked about the kind of microphones you and Christy use where you guys can communicate with each other? I used talk to text I'm sorry Christy if I spelled your name wrong or if it's spelled your name wrong. Hey what do you know it's spelled it two different ways :-)
We just used cell phone call
I thought he did alright for a first timer. The best way to learn is to just get in and do something and learn along the way.
Yep! ....but it sometimes help to see someone with more experience give it a try...as this video illustrates. Both approaches are helpful!
Weight, no offense I'm hefty too, and heat dont mix well my friend. I've found lots of cool water and a Gatorade or 2 throughout the day helps. Also a huge cheeseburger doesn't help much, but we all love cheeseburgers. I say cool water, because ice cold water might send you into shock if you're to bad off. Especially if you pour it on yourself.
Hi Tim, I was wondering if you ever looked at the 3P24 from Baumalight? It spins the same size disc as the 1P24 but they're calling for a greater horsepower tractor. I want to ask them why, and if it could be run on a smaller tractor like Kubota B2601, but they don't really have contact info for questions on their site.
You need two rear hydraulic outlets.
I think the 1P24 would be your best bet for a B2601.
@@TractorTimewithTim A B2601 can be factory-fitted with two rear remotes. So the question is really about horsepower, I think (I don't think weight should be an issue).
Well, the 3 point needs to be able to pick up the 3P24. Not sure it would be able to do so. It might, but I would want to double check...the weight will be much further back than 24”, so the written specs will not be directly helpful.
If you try it, I would be interested in seeing the results!
never see you guys drinking any water or power aide on these hot days like this please do watch closer to how much you are drinking hope you get to feeling better tim
What happens if the grinder hits a rock or bedrock? Will it break?
I'm a 'dig it out' vote.
My property has too many rocks for a stump grinder.
Hope you're feeling better Tim. I was just wondering how much that grinder cost when you said. Not sure my finance committee would approve that but I think I'll ask anyway then the new landplane with rippers I really want won't look so bad and I'll probably get that as a consolidation prize. 😆

Hello Tim my name is Ethan I am thirteen and I was busy looking at your truck and trailer videos I run my own lawn care company and I am looking at a 1025r for compactness or a 4052r for working. My question is do you have a cdl license for your 28ft bee wise trailer. Can you please tell me im just curious thanks
I do NOT have a CDL. Given the rules, I cannot legally leave Indiana for a commercial project without a CDL, or DOT registration on my F350. If I stay in-state, Indiana has a loophole which allows me to avoid DOT or CDL as long as my weight (or GVWR) does not exceed 26,000lbs. I hope that makes sense.
@@TractorTimewithTim Hello Tim I have been a subscriber for about 5 years now. Thanks for the information about that and the cdl. We have the same laws here in my state thanks time for everything please keep up the work love the content.
Tim take care of yourself. Do you take any medications including over the counter items if so be sure to check safety warnings to be sure there are no sun or heat warnings. But with the higher to extreme heat drink more fluids and be mindful of electrolyte intake sounds like dehydration heading towards heat exhaustion.
How long from start to finish did it take and what did you charge?
It was free...not sure on the time, we were training Sam on how to use it.
I feel like the only logical way of doing this is cutting it as low as you can then grinding it
What were those guys doing with those rakes? They had a perfectly good FEL right there! 😁
Tim, Could you attach the Baumalight 1P24 to a 1025 or 2025? Or do you need the bigger tractor? Or does Baumalight have a smaller grinder for the 1025?
We have many episodes with the 1P24 on the 1025r. Check them out!
Baumalight, good Canadian made products. Just like HLA Snowpushers.
That is interesting. Will my 1025r run it?
Yep. We have several episodes showing it with the 1025r.
Heat stroke with dehydration power aide and a power bar. Not drinking enough fluids
Watching the vid made me wonder if a series of ver
...vertical kerf cuts across the top of the stump would make it faster?
Was the tree taken down because of the emerald ash borer?
Yes
I have both the 1p 24 and the 3 p 36. Both have served me well but in Canada costs was $4500. And $9700. Respectfully. Now both require knowledge and common sense
Good to hear.
Thats a heck of a stress test.lol
Do away with Social Media and it is an instant stress relief. Although you need to keep the RUclips because without tractor porn I would be dealing with more stress.
Uhm :/
Tim you might be at the stage in your life that where heat exhaustion and heat stroke are getting to you more and you need another cab tractor
Problems in your neck can give headaches. Looking backwards =bad. I had 1 headache for 9 days, Tylenol and aspirin wouldn't touch it. Went to chiropractor for the first time not thinking it would help and he adjusted my neck and went home. 30 minutes later headache was gone.
I get the cnn joke ;^)
