Stump Grinders for Sale in Findhorn
When grinding is a reliable source of revenue, purchasing a grinder eliminates recurring hire costs and means the machine is on your premises for instant deployment. We offer 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)
Comprising four distinct variants, the FSI pedestrian portfolio ranges in both power and size from the smallest model to the greatest one.
Designed as the most compact option, the B21 perfectly suits intermittent operators, garden maintenance contractors, and professionals requiring a grinder for infrequent tasks as well as broader arboricultural duties. In sequence, the B22 and B28 deliver increased engine power and overall weight.
These machines grind more quickly and feature more assertive cutters. The setup is suitable for experts handling equipment multiple days per month rather than every two weeks.
As the supreme pedestrian model in the collection, the B38 supports busy crews who require excellent cutting capability. Complete performance. For the appropriate job, this walk behind unit readily rivals light tracked machines.
Whenever tree surgery businesses introduce their first dedicated stump grinder, the B22 or B28 provides a excellent mix between capability and cost. A practical start. But, weekly specialists need the mighty B38, making sure this pedestrian machine never runs out of capacity halfway through a 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 smallest grinder, this model represents a excellent all rounder for contractors moving from pedestrian machinery.
Want overcome soft ground and slopes? Just add tracks, or choose the radio remote configuration for optimal operator positioning!
Switching to the D60 provides a weightier and hardier grinder designed for commercial applications and significant stump clearance. As the premier model in this series, the D74 serves high productivity specialists, local authorities, and specialists tackling dense hardwoods and wide diameter timber.
We will walk you through the variations in cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight to help ensure you do never buy too much or insufficiently.
Used stump grinders in Findhorn
We provide quality used stump grinders from FSI and other manufacturers as stock is available. First, each machine undergoes a thorough workshop inspection before being sold, where we assess and accurately report on the cutting wheel, hydraulic status, and engine hours.
Does a machine require new teeth or a full service? We perform all this important work before the amount is ever placed on the floor!
Looking to expand your fleet? Buying used gear is a smart move for tree surgeons looking to add another grinder, busy crews desiring a backup, or fresh startups needing capable kit without that massive new machine cost!
When buying a stump grinder in Findhorn makes more sense than hiring
Investing represents the more economical economic path when your grinding is consistent, annual hiring weeks are greater than the cost equivalent of a finance payment, or operations need having a grinder available at short notice.
Owning equipment delivers essential reliability for operating teams. Daily acquaintance with a specific machine increases operator security and efficiency. Operating the same grinder throughout the year brings obvious productivity gains across the season.
Stump grinder hire in Findhorn
Discovering the ideal match is important, which is why our hire fleet of FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders is tailored to your exact task rather than forcing an unsuitable machine to struggle. We guarantee peak performance. Ahead of every hire, our workshop team thoroughly services each machine, fitting sharp carbide teeth, checking hydraulic levels, and testing the engine.
You will not receive a fatigued rental machine that has already completed multiple intensive contracts this month with dull cutters and a slipping belt.
Our stump grinder hire Findhorn fleet
For manual operations, we rent FSI walk-behind grinders ideal for residential gardens, narrow residential side access, and small commercial tasks where a tracked unit is unnecessary. These machines easily pass through standard garden gates, keep safe lawns from rutting due to their low weight, and tackle stumps from 18 to 24 inches in diameter depending on the species.
We provide tracked self propelled FSI grinders for large-scale projects, featuring radio remote configurations that leave operators safely clear of the cutting wheel. Tracked units are the correct choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and sites requiring repeated stump removals daily. Tracks also master steep slopes, soft ground, and unstable terrain that would easily overturn a pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Renting works for teams whose stump grinding volume still cannot justify an outright buy, specialists undertaking a one-off clearance beyond their standard scope, and teams wishing to avoid locking up capital in machinery that is only utilised a few weeks each year.
For users of smaller pedestrian equipment who occasionally secure contracts needing a tracked grinder, leasing this larger equipment for several days is far more economical than buying equipment that would be left largely unused throughout the working season.
Engaging a specialist expert means you get the precise grinder required for your specific task, instead of merely accepting whatever is available at a typical rental outlet. When you source a stump grinder from a major chain managing pressure washers and floor sanders too, your machinery receives only the rudimentary maintenance allocated to a standard cement mixer.

Stump Grinder Findhorn FAQ
How much does stump grinder hire cost in Findhorn?
Rental tariffs change according to both equipment size and the length of hire, whilst mainstream retail chains offering compact 13hp petrol models generally form the lower end of the market.

Tracked machinery featuring self propulsion commands the highest daily rate whilst yielding the highest volume of cutting. Please get in touch with 0141 775 9288 with your project requirements for an exact quotation.
What’s the difference between a pedestrian and tracked stump grinder?
Want effortless control? Pedestrian grinders are hand-operated walk behind machines you guide yourself. Being lighter and compact in design, they truly handle well restricted residential garden jobs!
Tracked grinders utilise hydraulic tracks to move themselves, fitted with more powerful engines and wider cutting wheels to clear hardwood stumps on high-volume contracts. Walk-behind machines reach tight spaces and are cheaper daily.
Tracked machinery accelerates work, penetrates further underground, and clears more substantial hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
How far far down can you go? It depends on your chosen of machine! Pedestrian FSI grinders descend inches underground to prevent regrowth, producing a perfectly levelled plot ready for fresh grass to thrive.
For projects that involve replanting, slabbing, or construction over the old stump, our robust tracked equipment digs much deeper. Initially, explain your future ground plans to our team. Following this, we will gladly advise you on the ideal machine for your required depth.
