Pulling stumps can be a nightmare. I have a Kubota BX2350 and use it to pull 4" to 6" inch Chinese Sumac stumps. Using the FEL was useless so I used a shovel to loosen the soil and locate a lateral root. Then wrapped a heavy chain around the stump and root, hooked the chain to the front of the tractor and in 4WD pulled the stump by rocking it SLOWLY until it broke loose. Pulling a stump in reverse is in my opinion safer because it's easier to see the progress and notice if the chain is going to break free. If the chain snaps or comes off the stump while under power it can be dangerous to the operator so keep it slow and be careful of the angle of the chain.
Hope this helps.
