Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You grind hardwood stumps over 18 inches diameter — large oaks, maples, or elms that standard grinders struggle with
- Production tree service or land clearing where stump count and diameter are high
- Your large-frame skid steer has the hydraulic flow and lift capacity to run a heavy grinder effectively
⛔ Skip if…
- Most of your stumps are under 12 inches — a standard grinder completes those faster with less wear
- Your machine is compact or mid-frame — a heavy grinder may exceed carrier capacity
🔍 Also consider…
- Standard stump grinder for typical residential and light commercial stump removal
- Side-shift stump grinder if you work near obstacles frequently
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Best suited to large-frame machines (S750+ class or equivalent CTL). Verify your machine's rated operating capacity (ROC) before ordering.

Care & Maintenance
- Check carbide tooth torque before every use — loose teeth eject at high RPM and can cause catastrophic cutterhead damage or injury
- Replace carbide teeth in matching pairs (left-right balance) to maintain cutterhead balance and reduce destructive vibration
- Grease cutterhead drive spindle bearings after every 4 hours of operation — grinding generates significant heat and vibration that accelerates lubricant breakdown
- Clean wood chips and soil from the motor ventilation shroud and belt drive area after every use — blocked ventilation causes motor overheating
- Inspect hydraulic motor fittings for loosening after hard-material sessions — the constant vibration of grinding loosens threaded fittings progressively
How to Connect
- Attach stump grinder using Bob-Tach
- Connect high-flow hydraulic couplers
- Run wheel at idle to verify direction (wheel should spin into stump, not away)
- Clear 10m radius of bystanders before grinding
⚠ Safety NoteHigh-flow required (20-40 GPM). Always wear face shield and hearing protection.
🪵 Before You Buy a Stump Grinder
Virtually all skid steer stump grinders require high-flow hydraulics — and carbide tooth condition is a major operating cost factor.

- Match cutterhead width to your typical stump diameter range
- Factor in carbide tooth replacement cost — budget $300–800/season for regular use

Confirm Machine Fit
Verify your machine's hydraulic flow meets this attachment's requirements before ordering. High-flow attachments need 25–45+ GPM — standard flow machines won't run them properly.
