It's a casual, unscripted task video rather than a spec-focused review, and includes a brief tip on crossing trailer safety chains. Best for owners curious how the B2601 handles awkward, heavy real-life loads with pallet forks.
An owner-operator who uses his Kubota B2601 on a 33-acre New Jersey farm, sharing practical DIY and land management experiences from a personal perspective.
Yes, the video shows the B2601 successfully unloading a bandsaw and jointer, each around 550 to 600 pounds, off a trailer using pallet forks.
Crossing the chains creates a cradle so if the hitch ball pops off, the chains catch the trailer instead of letting it drop to the ground.
The operator tips the forks up slightly at the front, positions them against the crate, undoes the strap, then carefully backs out while supporting the crate.
