Useful mainly for seeing the 3033R doing real digging and dragging work on rough ground, not for specs or buying advice.
Posted by Slam's Shenanigans, an owner working his own hilly property who narrates casually and leaves footage unedited.
It has the loader with a piranha tooth bar attached, plus a box blade, which the owner used for digging, pushing, and leveling the work area.
He ties a rope around upper branches, then runs a cable up to cinch around the tree, and pulls with the tractor from a safer distance instead of pushing it from the top.
The property sits on lava cap soil, meaning rock dust on top of rock that turns to powder when dry and mud when wet, making traction difficult.
No, he says he is glad he did not go smaller, like a 1025R, because it would not have handled the heavy digging and dragging work shown.
