Nice demonstration
Well done
Thanks for tearing up your property ( at least I hope it was yours LOL) to demonstrate these tips.
Thanks Ed- Great tips; I have used them all – including making use of the backhoe and its outriggers as others have mentioned. The rear wheels of the tractor can be lifted using the outriggers, allowing gravel or similar traction material to be shoveled in. It is prudent when using the loader bucket to “walk the tractor” to keep the ground contact of the bucket edge as even as possible – even if some earth has to be displaced. If only one side of the bucket is contacting the ground when performing the “walking maneuver”, it is possible to bend the quick attach cross tube on a Kubota.
Great video, Ed! I’ve had to use all those tricks on a few occasions to get my tractor unstuck. I’ve also used my backhoe to get unstuck when I happened to have it mounted on the tractor. It’s great because I can often reach beyond the muddy area and bite into solid earth to pull the tractor out. Thanks for sharing!
Good demonstration! This works most of the time. I’ve been in a situation twice where I couldn’t push myself out. Only because it was so steep I couldn’t maintain my position while repositioning the loader bucket.
timber rails are your friend – especially if you can put them down first like excavator mud mats…
Great tips Ed, especially for first time tractor operators.
Awesome video Ed! But your raincoat clashes with Kubota orange a tad. 😀😀. Now you gotta fix the mess you made on your property, and wash the Kubbie all up! All that for us viewers. Thanks bud. Thumbs up everyone 👍👍
How to unrig a stuck tractor when done on purpose!
Nice demo on getting unstuck! Had me concerned for a moment on the second one! Now you got a lot of mud to clean off you tractor… 🙁lol
How do you wash a tractor??
Two tricks I've used is for tractor with rims you can slide a chain through. First is using a 4×4 and a chain to walk tractor in deep mud. The best is using a recovery strap take one end and hook it to itself. Then take the other end and tie it off to something it will act like a wrench when wrapping around the tire.

The best part about getting stuck is 95% of the time its already in 4 wheel drive. A compact tractor in the hands of the "home-loaner" from day ONE ( 90% of the time) is in 4 WD FOREVER. By having R-4 tires traction is lost once a full rotation occurs, R-14s in 2 turns ,R-3 ( turf) anytime, R-1s traction lose occurs ONLY when the tractor is Buried—REALY bad situation. The limited "bucket curl" of ALL small kubota's ( no amplifying bucket-linkage assembly) is almost no help!. / just get off & go get some other equipment. My "experience " says just cruze around in 2 wheel drive & if you CAN'T WALK IT , just don't go there. The "worst ones" happen with the loader bucket is overloaded & tractor is all "twist-o-flexed " way far away from other resources. Thank you for the great Video Sir and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.
Great job Ed…all great tips! 👍
Good day Sir, Ed you like to play in the mud 😇👌👍 OUTSTANDING informative video 👍👌😇 Cheers 🍻
Some great tips, thanks. As you mentioned, we often forget about the diff lock. I expect this video was a lot of fun to make
Sharing this video with my neighbor. He stays stuck like Chuck a lot!
Great video.
Excellent video!!! Great tips as always!
looks like you had a nice green fence post to impale you as well if the tractor rolls over that way. 🙂 Good info, thanks
Nice job, Ed.
Thanks Ed! I have heard some of the tips you went over but it was really nice to see them in action. I would add that it would be good to notify a family member or friend in case things go sideways. I appreciate you tearing up your yard for us.
Good tips Ed. I agree with Brad@ Piney Grove Homestead. Stop and check things out before you get buried.
That is one of the reasons that I leave my loader on when I mow my pasture. There is over 100 acres that I mow with my Kubota L2501. There are stumps, holes, rocks, ditches. You name it, that obstacles is hidden in the weeds and brush just waiting to ambush me. Having the loader on has saved me from damaging the tractor and having to go get a pickup or another tractor to pull me out. It does make it more difficult to see but well worth the trade off for me.
Thanks Ed. See you tomorrow night 👍🏻
the diff lock has helped me out of several situations, it's as valuable as. 4×4
Great video Ed. Some really good tips especially using the loader to push yourself out. Thanks.
Well done Ed, great helpful tips on getting our tractors unstuck!
That’s kinda basic butt all new owners should learn this! I would like to see dealers hold a class once a year to help new owners.
👍Have a good week Ed see ya tomorrow on the Live
