Low floor (only 3 "above the tracks) unlike commercial excavators which have a platform of approximately 12" below the floor. The main and essential advantage is being able to reduce the height of the driving position and the roof so that it can enter standard residential garages (door 7ft high).
Rhinox Ripper Tooth (also known as a ripper hook, claw or frost hook) to fit CAT 303.5 mini .Root Rippers A Frost Ripper Tooth is used to break through hard ground as well as dig up .
First things first, I was inspired by this thread Giant Metal Claw, or the Little Excavator Ripper That Could. Little excavator weighs only 3900 lbs. Sometimes the ground is too hard to dig, so I need a ripper to tear it up first. Or to pick the rocks, loosen them. Also for digging out stumps. Can break more of the roots with a narrow claw - I . I've purchased a number of buckets with and without teeth. Also a root ripper which is not available from Kubota as either pin or quick attach. It should be fairly easy to weld a set of KX coupler ears to a SSQA attachment plate and off you go to the races. The main shank of Giant Metal Claw is like the MIE ripper, with some progressive teeth and side gussets. But the additional back plates for trenching are like the Bro-Tek ripper. Unlike the Bro-Tek ripper though, I added some little triangle gussets behind the back plates, which made me feel a lot more confident in them holding up. It is only about 15' wide but is impossible to take a tractor in there where as the mini would walk thru there easily. I would think a root rake on the mini would work well to reach around the bigger trees as well as tight to the ditch and fence and pull the brush and roots. If I could couple the root rake with thumb it would be a great system.
If I were to build a ripper tooth I'd go to the scrap yard and get the right thickness of steel so it looks a little more professional than having a bunch of extra pieces added on after the fact. Most people with a welder have a torch. That ripper tooth has about 20 separate pieces where normally a ripper tooth will have about 4. The above is based on my experience with a significantly modified 11K Lb M59 running the KX series of excavator tools, including a root ripper and thumb, on the hoe. I would NOT attempt to do what you are asking to do with this machine ( original cost in 2017 of K ) and another 30-40K in attachment tools.
Kubota B-series & Mini Excavator I'm pretty happy with a land rake on the forward end of brush forks, which gives me a long reach into the bushes (ahead of the front wheels). Possible you can get a land rake and a brushfork for 00 if you can do a little fabrication. With this approach, thin out the small stuff first then fell the bigger trees. These big trees will have a big root ball and hole. You will need a decent sized excavator for the bigger ones - a mini excavator can do a lot, but a larger 12-15 ton excavator would take minutes vs maybe 30 minutes with a mini excavator (10K pounds). All of the above. A bucket is still usually needed to dig around the stump, but these smaller hoes just don't have the power to rip up the bigger stumps. The ripper acts to concentrate the force along a single edge to break bigger roots. Once the roots are broken, the stump and roots can be dug up with either the ripper or bucket, whatever . Kubotas B2710, M6800, L6060 cab, Volvo EC excavator, 2 ZTRs and various implements. It is a neat job. Only negative to me is the work to change bucket to tooth.
