Tractor Tree Removal

Implements & attachments35–45 hpJohn Deere 2038R

Overview

A real-work session in the woods where Tim helps a new 1025R owner clear dead ash trees, with a chainsaw operator felling trees while Tim uses his larger John Deere 2038R with a grapple to drag and stack logs. The video contrasts what the small 1025R can and can't handle versus a bigger tractor, and touches on counter-weights and the Arborium grapple. Best for new compact tractor owners curious about practical tree work.

Tractor Time with Tim is an owner-operator lifestyle channel, though Tim actively promotes affiliate products like the heavy hitch and Arborium grapple throughout the video.
