Stump Grinders for Sale in Duntocher
Whenever stump grinding generates your steady income, buying a machine cuts out continued rental costs and means it is in your yard ready for action. We supply new FSI stump grinders across the full pedestrian and self propelled range. We also keep used machines from FSI and additional major brands as they arrive through trade.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Four variants comprise the FSI pedestrian range, rising in output and capacity from the most lightweight to the largest.
Designed as the smallest available model, the B21 serves occasional users, garden maintenance contractors, and operators needing sporadic grinding alongside tree care. To progress further, the B22 and B28 models deliver increased engine power and heavier frames.
Offering faster grinding capabilities with somewhat more assertive cutting edges, this machinery perfectly accommodates professionals who use their equipment a number of times monthly rather than on a two weekly schedule.
As the premier pedestrian option in this series, the B38 is built for teams who grind frequently. It provides notable cutting power, readily comparable to light tracked equipment when utilised on the correct projects.
For arboricultural businesses buying their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 provides a superb balance of expense and capability. If you already manage weekly projects, the B38 pedestrian machine is the ideal choice to ensure you never run out of power during any contract.
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
FSI powers their self propelled range with the D30, D60 and D74, providing track and remote control options on the D30. As the compact grinder, this model is a superb all rounder for contractors switching from pedestrian machinery.
Want overcome soft ground and slopes? Just add tracks, or select the radio remote configuration for ideal operator positioning!
Upgrading to the D60 provides a weightier and sturdier grinder built for commercial applications and greater stump clearance. Representing the premier model in this series, the D74 supports high productivity operators, local authorities, and specialists tackling dense hardwoods and wide diameter timber.
We describe the differences in cutting wheel size, engine power and weight to help ensure you do not get more than you need or less than you need.
Used stump grinders in Duntocher
We periodically acquire used stump grinders from trusted brands including FSI, ensuring every machine undergoes thorough workshop testing before being offered for sale. Our specialists carefully inspect and clearly report on important elements such as cutting wheel integrity, hydraulic efficiency, and documented engine hours.
As a first step, any piece of equipment requiring servicing or replacement teeth undergoes this essential work before we assess its price on the shop floor.
Investing in used equipment is a sensible decision for tree surgeons who need to add an additional grinder, teams that need backup machinery during peak periods, or new businesses needing adequate kit without the substantial cost of a brand new purchase.
When buying a stump grinder in Duntocher makes more sense than hiring
Choosing ownership represents the better economic path when your grinding is regular, annual hiring weeks surpass the cost equivalent of a finance payment, or operations rely on having a grinder available at short notice.
Committed management supports staff that demand reliability. First, staff become more efficient and safer by operating familiar machinery daily. As a result, the output benefits of operating the same grinder throughout the year will improve your periodic figures.
Stump grinder hire in Duntocher
We provide FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders as part of our hire range, so you can pick the exact machinery necessary for your specific task rather than settling with unsuitable equipment. Before dispatch, each grinder undergoes meticulous servicing, during which we attach sharp carbide teeth, review hydraulic levels, and test the engine.
You surely won’t collect an exhausted hire yard model that has finished six jobs this month with unsharp cutters and a worn belt!
Our stump grinder hire Duntocher fleet
For walk-behind applications, we provide FSI walk-behind grinders perfectly suited for private gardens, side accesses at residential properties, and lighter commercial jobs where a tracked unit is unnecessary. These helpful machines easily 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 tackling substantial works, we hire tracked self propelled FSI grinders featuring radio remote technology to ensure operators comfortably 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 detailed daily stump clearing. Crucially, rugged tracks easily conquer steep slopes and soft terrain that would easily topple a standard pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Leasing is suitable for businesses with limited stump grinding volume to justify purchasing, teams undertaking a one-off clearance project well beyond their normal capacity, and operators wishing to avoid locking away capital in machinery used only for several weeks annually.
Basically, renting helps those running compact walk-behind units when they occasionally win projects demanding a tracked grinder. Getting heavier kit for mere short periods is extremely economical, preventing them from investing in a machine likely to remain idle for the whole season.
Selecting a specialist ensures you obtain the precise grinder for your individual task, rather than just taking whatever is to hand at a general depot. Hiring a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders means the equipment receives the same routine care as a cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Duntocher FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Duntocher?
Equipment scale and rental duration determine hire tariffs. Standard hire chains supplying compact 13hp petrol units define the lowest market tier.
While specialist pedestrian FSI grinders carry a more expensive daily rental rate, their enhanced operating speed ensures quick clearance, ultimately lowering the cumulative expenditure per stump once time on site is calculated.
While tracked machines require the greatest daily rate, they yield the largest cutting volume. Just ring 0141 775 9288 with your project details for an exact quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Steered by hand, pedestrian grinders are operated on foot. These slim, lightweight machines gracefully handle confined domestic spaces and domestic gardens.
Tracked grinders employ hydraulic tracks to move themselves, fitted with larger engines and wider cutting wheels to clear hardwood stumps on high-volume contracts. Pedestrian machines work in tight spaces and are cheaper daily.
Move fast! Tracked machines speed up jobs, go further underground, and easily conquer large hardwood stumps!
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
Depth capacities vary by type. Pedestrian FSI grinders dig several inches below ground level, removing regrowth and producing a flat surface ready for new grass.
Are you planning to resow, cover or construct over the cleared spot? Our more substantial tracked machines can reach much lower! Just tell us what is going there next and we will recommend the ideal cutting depth.
Do you sell used stump grinders in Duntocher?
When previously used FSI and alternative brand machinery arrives via part-exchange, we carefully inspect and maintain every unit, then provide an accurate report on condition.
