I bought one 3 years ago and have taken out approximately 45 stumps. No problems, other than when I first uncrated it, I should have checked the torque on the teeth. I lost 2 on the very first usage. I use it on a john Deere 1025R, which is on the low PTO Horsepower required. Just use shallower cuts and it works fine. If some are curious, I believe the components are made in China and assembled in Canada.

Thanks very much glad I watch your video one more question are you put back the pin after done grinder or never put back again

@donaldkollar8138 2 жыл бұрын

Unless you are transporting it, I see no reason to install the pin. Mine is on the shelf where I put it 3 years ago.

Did the quick hitch bushings come with it or did you order those separately? If ordered separate, where did you get them?

What do you normally charge for the stump grinding service? I'm a college student running a stump grinding business and would appreciate any advice. I used to rent a handheld machine for the weekend and price customers' stumps based on age/size by a glance, then bang out as many as I could on the weekend. I just bought a small tractor and this machine so I'm able to ramp up business. I've been told that $5 per inch of diameter is the way to go. What do you think?

@SparkysGarage 3 жыл бұрын

I charge a minimum $200. Not worth me loading the machine for anything less. Then $100/hour for my time after the first 2 hours. Grinding, clean up, backfill, whatever the customer wants done. Usually pretty close with my estimates.

Why did you need to trim the PTO shaft ?

@SparkysGarage 3 жыл бұрын

It was too long and wouldn't fit between the pto input and output.

Been looking to purchase. What you think overall. Would you buy it again

@SparkysGarage 3 жыл бұрын

Definitely would buy again. Already made a few hundred on it with just a couple jobs.

Did you bother to slip the clutch? That's a long ride in salty sea air from China. And who knows how long the components sat in warehouses. Just curious. Thanks.

@SparkysGarage Жыл бұрын

I did. I actually have two slip clutches. One that stays on the machine permanently and one on the grinder. Both slip.

I run mine take about 10 stump and found never remove the stab pin. Big issue ?

@SparkysGarage 2 жыл бұрын

That pin is important to remove to keep from putting too much stress on the bearings in the grinder. I'd definitely pull it every time I use it.

Do you fine it makes a difference working left to right or right to left (when viewed from the seat) I fine my stump grinder bounces and shakes hard I have issues with the grinder hopping up and down. Have you experienced this? Thanks !!

@SparkysGarage 2 жыл бұрын

Pulling all of the slop out of your 3 point adjustments will help with it hopping. I cut with the non-exit side of the grinder.
