Wow, we had a boulder like that, been there for years in one the fields my farmer friend had. He allowed a local contractor, with DEC permits to dump clean fill along an embankment, so he left a '02 JD450 on site, and knew most of us had experience with dozers, so when the fill needed to be pushed off, graded etc. we could use it. I tried the night before to get an edge on this rock with the JD3150 and loader, no way, would have broke something, though the farmer I was helping, was not stopping, me, I said I have enough respect for this nice tractor, its not worth fooling with. I came in early the next morning, got on the 450 and went over to this rock, it was out in 10 minutes, and I pushed it off to where it was out of the way, but one of the sons was a landscaper, so I left it in case he wanted to sell it. I went over and graded all the fill off, got some seat time and went back to spring planting, sometimes you forget the hydraulic power of these earth movers, that little JD 450 was impressive, I towed a big oak log with it, along side, rigged from the blade up hill it would not tow it up, you just forget the power.
I'm surprised the WA-320 could not push itself out, must have been suction, not worth getting in deeper. I used to run a WA450, loading trucks and screening top soil, and clearing snow, felt like the king of the road when running on 2 lane roads to get to a site, it earned the title of beast !

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
