How many do you need to do? We have a local rental place that has a self contained system and don’t see how I could afford to own one when they are so cheap and convenient.


Rented one of these at local rental shop:



Looks good, but is slow on big stumps.  Motor is about 25 hp and the rotor is hydraulic powered and will stall out if loaded too fast.  Hired a commercial guy with a similar type unit, but commercial grade and he did a similar size stump in about 1/5th the time.  If stump is 24" or bigger, it can take up to 30 minutes to do one stump.   



I've used one of the self propelled little guys in the past as well. Not bad for small stumps, but if you get over about 2'...pack a lunch...
