Fecon launches stump grinder for compact equipment

LEBANON, Ohio – Fecon introduced the Stumpex CUL stump grinder designed specifically for compact utility loaders.  This new slow speed, high torque cutting attachment mounts to compact utility loaders with 10-20 GPM of hydraulic flow, and 2,000 to 3,000 PSI. Its open frame facilitates material flow, while a powerful robust drive generates up to 4,000 ft. lbs of torque to tackle any species of wood. The durable 340-pound attachment provides a long service life, even in rocky conditions.

The Stumpex CUL removes stumps from 4 to 11-inches with a single plunge, and stumps greater than 11 inches with multiple plunges. Its slow speed ensures a safer work environment with faster clean-up. It is ideal for property managers/landowners, farmers, landscapers, tree service companies/arborists, municipalities, parks & recreational facilities, rental facilities, and others seeking to safely remove stumps using a compact utility loader.

A hardened auger cone ensures positive draw into the stump, while stepped blades of ½” thick durable AR500 material rotate at slow speeds which is far safer than conventional stumpers.  The low rpm auger bit leads to easy work site clean-up without flying debris that is inherent with conventional stumpers.  There are no carbide tips to replace, and no flying projectiles, making the Stumpex CUL a safer, low-maintenance approach to stump removal.
