Fecon recently introduced the Stumpex stump grinder for skid steers with as little as 20 GPM hydraulic output. Low RPM and as much as 33,600 ft-lbs of torque @ 4,000 PSI enables the 1500-lb Stumpex to draw itself down into any species of stump 10” – 28” in diameter and up to 20” deep in a single pass.
Larger diameter stumps are processed by making additional passes. A threaded cone and staggered AR500 cutting blades grind out stump and root material with minimal discharge without requiring any fast-wearing carbide cutting tools. Stump chips stay mostly in the hole traditional stump grinders create, making clean-up after grinding with a Stumpex faster and easier. Low maintenance costs, high production, less clean-up, and increased safety make the Stumpex a great opportunity for stump grinding contractors in land clearing, tree care, and municipal applications.
