What happens here

A massive tree stump is encountered and needs to be removed. The mini excavator is used to dig around the stump, loosening its roots. Heavy chains are then attached to the stump. Using the excavator's arm and a CAT 259D3 skid steer loader for additional pulling power and leverage, the stubborn stump is slowly and carefully pulled out of the ground.

Goal: Remove a large, deeply rooted tree stump from the excavation area.

Tools and materials

  • CAT 259D3 Skid Steer Loader Caterpillar — Providing additional pulling power and leverage to extract the stump
  • Heavy Chains — Securing the stump to the heavy machinery for extraction
