Stump Grinders for Sale in Craigentinny
Whenever grinding is a reliable source of revenue, purchasing a grinder cuts out recurring hire costs and means the machine is on your premises for instant deployment. We supply new FSI stump grinders throughout the entire pedestrian and self propelled range, alongside used machines from FSI and other leading brands as they enter our inventory.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Characterised by 4 distinct models, the FSI pedestrian portfolio extends in output and capacity from the smallest to the largest.
Seeking a small powerhouse? The B21 is ideal for occasional users, garden maintenance contractors, and operators wanting a grinder for small jobs alongside tree work! Require more muscle? The heavier B22 and B28 seriously step up the engine output.
Operating with a faster grind and more aggressive cutters, they well suit the regular user who operates machinery several days a month rather than once a fortnight.
Looking for the largest pedestrian model in our range? Made for relentless crews craving serious cutting power, the mighty B38 is a walk behind unit that readily matches light tracked machinery on the right jobs!
For tree surgery enterprises buying their inaugural dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 delivers an excellent balance between capability and cost. As an alternative the B38 represents a superior choice for contractors executing weekly stump grinding who want a pedestrian machine built to maintain ample capacity throughout demanding commercial agreements.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
FSI equips their self propelled range with the D30, D60 and D74, providing track and remote control options on the D30. As the most compact grinder, this model is a superb all rounder for contractors switching from pedestrian machinery.
Add tracks for travelling across yielding terrain and inclines, or choose the radio remote specification should operator placement be critical to your standard operations.
Graduating to the D60 offers a more durable, high-performance grinder engineered particularly for substantial commercial workloads and bigger stumps. Meanwhile, the premier D74 model caters to busy contractors, local authorities, and specialists managing tough hardwoods and very large timber diameters.
We shall walk you over the variances in cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight to ensure your acquisition closely matches your requirements.
Used stump grinders in Craigentinny
We provide used stump grinders from FSI and additional manufacturers as stock becomes available. Our technicians checks every machine prior to sale, delivering transparent reports on cutting wheel condition, hydraulic health, and engine hours.

When buying a stump grinder in Craigentinny makes more sense than hiring
When does buying make total financial sense? It is when you are grinding constantly, renting for extra weeks than finance costs, or absolutely needing a grinder ready at a moment’s notice!
Ownership is essential for work groups demanding consistency. Operators attain higher throughput and security on regularly used machinery, meaning the productivity benefits of operating the same grinder throughout the year become clearly visible in seasonal performance data.
Stump grinder hire in Craigentinny
We supply FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders as part of our hire range, so you can choose the exact machinery needed for your specific task rather than settling with unsuitable equipment. Before dispatch, each grinder undergoes thorough servicing, during which we install sharp carbide teeth, review hydraulic levels, and test the engine.
You will not receive a fatigued rental machine that has already carried out multiple heavy-duty contracts this month with dull cutters and a loose belt.
Our stump grinder hire Craigentinny fleet
For manual applications, we supply FSI walk-behind grinders perfectly suited for domestic gardens, side accesses at residential properties, and more modest commercial tasks where a tracked unit is not required. These useful machines readily pass through ordinary garden gates. They also glide gently over your lawn without causing turf damage, whilst reliably tackling stumps between 18 and 24 inches in diameter, depending on the particular wood species.
When dealing with substantial jobs, we use tracked self propelled FSI grinders featuring radio remote technology to ensure operators safely distanced from the active cutting wheel. These tracked machines are the ultimate choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and any site requiring thorough daily stump clearing. Crucially, rugged tracks smoothly conquer steep slopes and soft terrain that would quickly topple a standard pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Rental very well suits contractors whose stump grinding volume cannot currently warrant a purchase, contractors completing a one-off clearance far beyond their usual scale, and crews refusing to lock up valuable capital in equipment used only a few periods annually.
Do you have a smaller pedestrian unit but occasionally land jobs needing a tracked grinder? Hiring is the ideal solution! Hiring the larger kit for just a few days costs much less than buying a machine that remains idle all season.
Selecting a focused specialist guarantees you get the exact grinder necessary for your project, rather than simply accepting whatever is left at a usual hire depot. Take a stump grinder from a chain that handles pressure washers and floor sanders, and the machine is given only the elementary care afforded to a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Craigentinny FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Craigentinny?
Hire rates vary on unit dimensions and the length of hire, whilst mainstream outlets supplying small 13hp petrol machinery generally sit in the lowest-priced market tier.
While dedicated pedestrian FSI grinders carry a greater daily rental rate, their faster operating speed ensures rapid clearance, ultimately lowering the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
While tracked machines require the greatest daily rate, they deliver the largest cutting volume. Simply call 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an precise quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Operated on foot through manual steering, pedestrian grinders offer a light and easy-to-handle and compact design that is well optimised for domestic gardens and highly restricted residential spaces.
Powered by hydraulic tracks, massive tracked grinders feature high-capacity engines and larger cutting wheels, quickly conquering tough hardwood stumps and demanding high volume contracts. Meanwhile, nimble pedestrian machines access restricted spaces at a reduced daily rate.
Tracked delivers greater performance, delivers greater subterranean penetration, and efficiently tackles significant hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth level of your cut depends on the specific model. Pedestrian FSI grinders typically reach several inches underground, which effectively prevents regrowth and prepares a level surface for fresh lawn to flourish.
Are you considering to replant, slab or develop over the cleared spot? Our more substantial tracked machines reach much deeper! Just inform us what is going there next and we will recommend the best cutting depth.
