Stump Grinders for Sale in Ardgay
Why keep wasting money on repeated hire fees when the work is your business? Having your own gear means it is always in your premises, ready to go! We offer the complete range of new FSI stump grinders, including both pedestrian and self propelled options, plus used FSI and alternative leading brands as they arrive.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
4 variants make up the FSI pedestrian range, rising in power and size from the smallest to the heaviest.
As most compact and lightweight, the B21 ideally suits infrequent users, garden maintenance teams, and operators requiring a grinder for intermittent tasks alongside general tree work tasks, whilst the B22 and B28 provide higher engine output and weight.
Looking for speedier grinding? These machines run sharper cutters, which makes them an ideal choice for regular operators using equipment a few days a month rather than every two weeks!
As the leading pedestrian model in the range, the B38 caters to tireless crews who need superior cutting capability. Sheer performance. For the right job, this walk behind unit easily competes with light tracked machines.
Tree surgery firms purchasing their first stump grinder find the B22 or B28 provides an effective balance of performance and price. The B38 appeals to operators managing weekly grinding projects who require a pedestrian machine designed to provide sufficient capacity until the contract is complete.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
The self propelled range from FSI includes the D30, D60, and D74, with tracked and remote control options available for the D30. As the most compact model, this multi-purpose grinder serves as the perfect next stage for contractors moving up from pedestrian machinery.
Add crawler tracks to negotiate uneven terrain and inclines, or select the radio remote configuration if operator placement is essential during your standard projects.
Ascending to the D60 brings a heavier, far more potent grinder crafted to tackle vast commercial workloads and substantial stumps. Next reigns the D74, our ultimate flagship designed for busy contractors, councils, and operators confronting formidable hardwood and large-diameter cuts.
We will walk you through the variations in cutting wheel size, engine output, and mass to ensure you do not buy too much or too little.
Used stump grinders in Ardgay
Do you want a well-maintained used stump grinder? We source excellent stock from FSI and other brands! Every machine is rigorously workshop tested, supplying you with completely honest reports on cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and hour meter readings with engine.
We carry out all necessary servicing and tooth replacements before we fix the price on the sales floor.
Looking to expand your fleet? Investing in used gear is a sound move for tree surgeons adding another grinder, busy crews needing a backup, or fresh startups needing capable kit without that huge new machine cost!
When buying a stump grinder in Ardgay makes more sense than hiring
Buying becomes the better economic decision when you are using it regularly, renting for more weeks annually than a finance payment would require, or your workload means having a grinder accessible at short notice.
For operating crews, ownership breeds a crucial familiarity. Staff grow swifter and more safe when operating the same grinder each day, a regular routine that eventually translates into triumphant seasonal figures.
Stump grinder hire in Ardgay
We provide FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders as part of our hire range, allowing you to select the exact machinery required for your specific task rather than compromising with unsuitable equipment. Prior to dispatch, each grinder undergoes careful servicing, during which we install sharp carbide teeth, review hydraulic levels, and test the engine.
You will not receive an worn hire yard machine used up by repeated monthly hires, complete with blunted cutters and a sliding belt.
Our stump grinder hire Ardgay fleet
For pedestrian operations, we offer FSI walk behind grinders ideal to residential gardens, side access routes, and smaller commercial tasks where larger machinery remains unnecessary. These agile units navigate standard garden gates with ease, travel over turf without leaving ruts, and readily clear stumps spanning 18 to 24 inches in diameter, depending on the species.
For larger commissions, we provide tracked self propelled FSI grinders, with radio remote configurations that enable operators to remain safely distanced from the spinning cutting wheel. These tracked designs represent the ideal solution for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and locations demanding substantial daily stump clearance. Furthermore, tracks effectively negotiate steep inclines, soft ground, and undulating terrain that would easily destabilise a pedestrian alternative.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
How come purchase when you can rent? Renting is the ultimate choice for operators without the consistent stump grinding volume to justify buying. It is ideal for contractors tackling an exceptionally large single project, or crews wanting to avoid freezing vital capital in temporary machinery!
For those operating smaller walk-behind units who periodically secure contracts needing a tracked grinder, leasing this larger machinery for multiple days is considerably more economical than purchasing equipment that would remain largely underused throughout the working season.
Choosing a specialist guarantees you get the precise grinder for the job, rather than what is left at a generic depot. Hire a stump grinder from chains stocking pressure washers and floor sanders, and your equipment gets the same standard maintenance as their cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Ardgay FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Ardgay?
Hire costs change with the physical scale of your machinery and the project timescale. Unsurprisingly, major suppliers supplying small 13hp petrol options make up the most affordable pricing tier.
While purpose-built pedestrian FSI grinders attract a higher daily rental rate, their superior operating speed ensures swift clearance, ultimately lowering the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
While self-propelled machines command the highest daily rate, they deliver unmatched cutting volume. This is real efficiency. Call 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an exact quote.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Walk-behind grinders are manually controlled machines guided by an operator following behind. Their light and compact nature is perfectly suited to domestic gardens and confined domestic environments.
Powered by hydraulic tracks, massive tracked grinders require stronger engines and larger cutting wheels, easily conquering tough hardwood stumps and demanding high volume contracts. Meanwhile, nimble pedestrian machines enter restricted spaces at a reduced daily rate.
Tracked machinery offers speedier operation, greater subterranean excavation, and the capacity to manage substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth of your cut depends on the specific model. Pedestrian FSI grinders generally penetrate several inches underground, which reliably prevents regrowth and creates a level surface for fresh lawn to flourish.
As substantial tracked equipment achieves superior excavation depth, it stays ideal for ground planned for replanting, slabbing, or construction. Once you share your future plans for the area, we will gladly advise on the optimal cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Ardgay?
