I have 2010 Kioti CK20 HST. Even this machine is just a tad under powered for "Moving" those sized stumps. Digging out wasn't a problem going down an 8" bucket. I developed a little trick to move them. Find a strong pallet and fab some sled skis with 2 x 4's and cut the ends at 30 degrees 45 will work but 30 won't cut into the soil as much. Attach them to the bottom of the pallet. Once the stump is out of the hole you can get the stump on it with some bucket finesse. You'll be able to pull or actually slide your stump close to your dumping site. I could not pull or push big stumps anywhere until I did this, and my machine weighs about 2800 lbs with loader and backhoe. Nice vid thanks for posting.

That is a project! Too late now, but Diablo has a carbide pruning saw for a reciprocating saw that might have saved your chainsaw chains. Working on some big stumps of my own with my own 1025r. I've found it to be quite the versatile little tractor for my needs.

Chris Dowing bamboo is hard to kill but it is possible. The wife and I just killed over an acre. It has been gone for over a year in fact we mow that area like our yard. First we cut down the bamboo and burn it. Then we bought a subsoiler for our Kubota L2600 (I really needed a 75 hp.tractor but didn't have one.) and we went over the area 15 to 20 times north and south then east and west. Went went down 15 to 18 inches with the subsoiler. Then we picked all the roots and started over again and again and again and again till there were no roots left. The problem is the bamboo is hard to get out of the ground. Some of the roots are the size of a small pineapple and the other are like a can or worms big as a hoe handle. Where there was a large group of bamboo the roots are matted together and can be the size of a pickup truck bed. It took us about 3 months working steady. The roots I could not get up with a subsoiler I used the backhoe our BX23D. Good luck and remember be patient and don't give up. If there is a 3 inch long root it will sprout.
