The stump-removal sequence is the real substance, with practical tips on leverage, patience, and protecting the loader. Best for B2601 owners curious about light land-clearing with what they already have.

Yes, for a smaller stump around 4 to 5 inches in diameter, the B2601 can work it loose with patience, though a stump grinder or excavator handles bigger stumps better.
Go slowly and use leverage instead of speed, since ramming the loader into a stump with speed can bend it, remember it is a tractor, not a skid steer.
Cut the stump higher up for leverage, then work from the sides cutting and loosening roots gradually, taking one bite at a time rather than trying to pop it out in one move.
