This thing is amazing - Ive watched bunches of those saw blade style stump grinders, but this thing takes the cake hands down! Didnt take much more then a minute to dig it right to the ground
@rotorstumper That would help alot. My grandfather was always on me about the angle of the PTO. Back in the old days, they wouldn't old up if you went past 45 deg. Nice to see inovation with the double joint rated at 240 hp
Very impressive.It might be expensive but it certainly does a much better job than the usual rapidly rotating other grinders which simply disperse dust all over the show.
This looks a lot safer than a traditional trailored stump grinder. It is slow and it doesnt not spit would chips every where that could lead to injury like a stump grinder would. Well done if i must say so myself.
Well, when I get the tens of thousands of dollars to get a tractor and this attachment, I may as well start hacking away at the stump with my axe - I know I could get the stump out before paying off that expense. Not to discount the pleasure gleamed form watching this stump get drilled. Very therapeutic for anybody who has had to manually remove stumps. Thanks!
this has got to be one of the best idea i have seen in many years so simple and so awesome good this is centuries ahead of all other stump remover tools out there what is the price tag on it delivered in Denmark

This is a most awesome stump destroyer. I wonder why it spins counter-clockwise. Guess it doesn't matter. I like at the beginning where that one dude says "Okay -- I'll just move back a little!". That was funny. 'Cause he was scared.
I built one several years ago for my Post Hole Digger, I had the same problem in that you had to move the tractor up as you lowered the drill,,I finally built a vertical slide unit that goes straight up and down,,,it worked great. Sold it in 1980 and never built another,,,wonder how long this one has been around.
That attachment is very cool, but when you need a used, $75,000 tractor to run it, it gets to be an expensive stump grinder....it does a hell of a job~!
u dont need to use a $75,000 tractor for that u can always buy cheaper second hand tractors that need a little love where i live u can have a tractor up too 160 hp for under 10,000 euro that work fine and look decent
Les Johnson LOL Don't you realize how many stumps there are to grind out there ? You see the machine grind 1 stump and you think that is all.Ha ha that machine has probably cleared 3000 stumps since this was posted ROFL !!!!
Usually the average production in 8 hours of work, plantation poplar trees, is about 600 stumps. Some customers say they destroy 1000 stumps a day, but better not to overdo it.
@skgrek23 No. First of all, why would you want to. But the real reason is the angle of the PTO shaft. When it first starts out, the unit is so high in the air that the U-joint is past a 45 deg angle. If you put too much torque on that joint at that angle, you'd be changing U-joints all the time. And the whole purpose to this kind of stump grinder is the slow, safe speed. No chips flying all over the place.
How far below the surface does it cut. We plow 16" deep periodically. Wouldn't want to snag my equipment on a buried stump or root. Root plowing is pretty hard to beat. I guess it is all in the application.
the best thing to do is to put a stick of dynamite.my uncle and father were doing that in the eighties. you had to choose a good shelter, though. but it was very effective.
@rotorstumper Hehe, I agree. For minimum 140 PTO HP thats about $121,000. For the Stumper I say since the way it looks like its been built, maybe at least $12,000 for it. So them your spending $133,000 Minimum for it :D.
This is a machine designed to large plantations, where you have to remove 800-1000 stumps per day, 3-4 months a year. Is logical that not good for parks and gardens
Wow, what a beast! There have been a few times I wish I had this thing. I would think you'd need a bi-directional PTO in case you needed to back that thing out.
Uhmmmm, what happens if the stump is bigger around than the auger blades. And does it have a reverse gear? As someone who has run a lot of post hole diggers, I can see this thing getting stuck bigger than hell.
If this type of device was used the hold could be properly refilled with soil and the lingering problem of "sink holes" would no longer be a factor. Conventional stump grinders cannot get the wood out this deep...it rots in passing years and leaves depressions in yards and fields.
This looks awesome but It probably wouldn't be as effective on a freshly cut tree as the carving type machines. The wood of this stump has clearly rotted and is breaking apart too easily with the slow rotating blades. Even removing it with an axe would still be easy. Obviously this is alot quicker. Still pretty cool though!
I have jammed the post hole borer in the ground so many times that I doubt my tractor would have the horsepower to drive that beautiful instrument. If I had enough money to buy that big tractor then I may as well hire the guy with that tractor. I can imagine using the stump grinder types though as they6 don't get struck in the stump. even bother .
Dude, I just spent all day drilling holes in the stump in the front yard so that I could use chemical stump remover. I had no idea anything like this existed.
great bit of kit !! it seems to take the stump down a lot lower than the rotating heavy wheel grinders .Thanks for posting.
Not only did it grind the stump down...but it made some GREAT firewood that will burn great!!!.

If I ever need a stump ground up, this is the only way to do it...legally. That was pretty cool!
Well done!
Comparing to other stump removal machines displayed the most progresive solution. Would like to play with...
i find this unbelievably satisfying to watch.
Depending on the type of tree that thing could be churning out some really good grill/smoker fuel.
I could do that job 24/7 and never get bored !
wow this is so much better than those trailer stump grinders. they haev a vertical blade that grinds the stump little by little left and right.
Best machine on the market for this task. Quick, clean, efficient. Why look elsewhere?

It would take a pretty expensive big tractor to have the torque to do that.

Of course it was demonstrated on a soft ash tree,but still an awesome machine never the less.I wonder if it has its own stand when not in use.
I have to say, this is truly a Thing of Beauty.
This deeply pleasures me to watch this.

My dad bought an 8300 for $42,500. Put $20,000 in it for a remanufactured motor. The original had 10,200 hours.
Usually the average production in 8 hours of work, plantation poplar trees, is about 600 stumps.
Some customers say they destroy 1000 stumps a day, but better not to overdo it.
This is the best I ever seen. Have to check my piggy bank and see if I have enough change to buy one.
That was efficient and cool to watch
That thing is incredible!!!...but it sure takes the horsepower and torque to make it work...
this is so cool, and better than the grinding machines!

This is epic it makes me want one to just do this all day making my dirtbike trails lol!
nice...now you need entire landscape crew to fill in the trenches the huge tractor made in the yard to get to and from the stump.....but very nice
Now that's how you grind a stump, that John Deere made light work of that
Now that is some torque!
I think you need a rather big tractor for this :) I would suck that the tractor starts spinning around the stump because it was to light :-)
Prima, und was machst du mit einer Pappel oder einem morschen Szumpf

Great principle, I don't know how good it would be on large stumps? A bit big for the average garden!
..plus an added bonus of kindling wood this winter!
This is strangely pleasing to watch.
Demolition always is. :)
No high speed just pure power awesom
wow now that is how it should be done, and you can even collect the wood and use is
So much better than those rotary head grinders and fling stuff everywhere and make a hole twice as big as the original stump....
Freeporn
genius. That is the only way to go, right there
WOW!! Now that's the way to remove a stump. Impressive. Safe.
Thankyou I needed to see what a stump grinder was as Ive been advised to hire one.
This is a machine designed to large plantations, where you have to remove 800-1000 stumps per day, 3-4 months a year.
Is logical that not good for parks and gardens
seems faster n way cleaner. thumbs up
Nice but what do you do when you have a tough lie where you can't get a 6-9 ton tractor in?
That job is a total grind.
Wow, what a beast! There have been a few times I wish I had this thing. I would think you'd need a bi-directional PTO in case you needed to back that thing out.

@rotorstumper that is an expensive toy just for the odd stump you must be in landscaping?
this is nice, no chips flying .
How much would you have to charge per stump and how many stumps would you have to remove just to break even between the two.
That's awesome! really good idea
now u just have a nice camp fire in that spot. and gone :)
So what do you do on smaller diameter stumps that you can’t pull out or keep this thing centered on? I’m sure it sucks ass on smaller stumps.
This looks awesome but It probably wouldn't be as effective on a freshly cut tree as the carving type machines.
The wood of this stump has clearly rotted and is breaking apart too easily with the slow rotating blades.
Even removing it with an axe would still be easy. Obviously this is alot quicker.
Still pretty cool though!
Is there different sizes for different horsepower tractors? Is it a 3pth attachment?
@chakathewolf ,yes this model has the bi-directional PTO
Will this fit on my Snapper self propelled lawn mower?

with a 160HP PTO you can do about anything, what can us guys with a little 30HP tractor use?

Damn thats alot of stumps before sharpening :) Is the rotorstumper availble in norway ??
I am REALLY VERY IMPRESSED !!!
Looks a lot safer than a traditional stumper
I run an urban tree service, you must be out in the country somewhere- John
Yes,about 300-600 stumps
that thing is sooo nice. how awseome
after you remove the old stump there is a nice place to plant a new tree

Eight years later -are they still in business??????
Yes, stronger than before
1st time i see smth like that. practical.
amazing invention !
Now thats more economical then the buzz saw type of stump remover
that is an awesome machine.
great tool but I prefer smaller pieces that I can use as mulch ...
it really showed the stump who's boss.:-)
it must take a shitload of torque to cut through a stump like that
What would be considered the minimum sized JD tractor to run that Rotor S grinder?

its alright but how bwt a big stump thst has heaps of surface roots how ling would that take lol
seems like an extreme angle on the shaft.
