Stump Grinders for Sale in Pitlochry
Why continue wasting funds on endless hire fees when the work is your livelihood? Having your own gear means it is constantly in your place, ready to go! We offer the complete range of new FSI stump grinders, with both pedestrian and self propelled options, plus used FSI and alternative leading brands as they arrive.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
Consisting of four distinct variants, the FSI pedestrian portfolio graduates in both performance and capability from the most compact model to the greatest one.
The compact B21 serves occasional operators, garden maintenance professionals, and users needing a second grinder alongside main tree work. The B22 and B28 models offer enhanced engine output and weight.
These machines work more quickly and use more aggressive cutters. This setup works well for experts using equipment multiple days per month rather than every two weeks.
As the premier pedestrian option within this range, the B38 is suited to specialists performing repeated grinding who demand enhanced cutting power from a walk behind machine capable of competing with light tracked equipment in the relevant conditions.
Are you looking to add a dedicated first stump grinder to your tree surgery business? Choosing a B22 or B28 perfectly combines capability with price! For those grinding weekly, the B38 is the best pedestrian machine. It ensures you never run out of capacity halfway through a challenging contract!
FSI self-propelled range (D30, D60, D74)
FSI offers a self propelled range including the D30, D60 and D74, with optional tracked or remote control configurations on the D30. As the most compact self propelled grinder, the D30 offers an excellent, versatile transition for professionals upgrading from pedestrian machinery.
Equip tracks to master soft terrain and gradients, or choose the radio remote system if operator placement is important on your usual projects.
Opting for the D60 secures a robust, more powerful grinder engineered for commercial volumes and more substantial stumps. The top-end D74 serves high-output contractors, councils, and specialists managing dense hardwood and extra large diameter cuts.
We will take you through the variations in cutting wheel size, engine output, and weight to make sure you do not buy more than you need or too little.
Used stump grinders in Pitlochry
We occasionally welcome used stump grinders into our yard, featuring FSI alongside additional trusted brands. Every machine goes through rigorous workshop preparation before sale. We check them thoroughly. Cutting wheel integrity, hydraulic health, and true engine hours are always clearly assessed and accurately reported.
We perform all required servicing and tooth replacements before we set the price on the sales floor.
Opting for pre-owned machinery is a logical step for a number of reasons. It enables arborists to secure an extra grinder, gives teams with vital backup capability during hectic periods, and allows new businesses to purchase reliable kit without significant upfront costs.
When buying a stump grinder in Pitlochry makes more sense than hiring
Purchasing your equipment becomes the logical economic step when you grind regularly, book for more weeks annually than finance repayments cost, or need a grinder on standby at a moment’s notice.
Possessing equipment remains crucial for workforce continuity, as personnel build superior speed and safety through daily contact with a single asset, delivering measurable seasonal efficiency gains from using that dedicated grinder throughout the year.
Stump grinder hire in Pitlochry
To help you choose the ideal machine for your specific task rather than making an unsuitable unit to do the work, our hire fleet provides FSI pedestrian and tracked stump grinders. We thoroughly prepare every machine before dispatch, so that sharp carbide teeth are fitted, hydraulic levels are checked, and the engine is fully tested.
You surely wouldn’t pick up an worn-out hire yard model that has completed six jobs this month with blunt cutters and a worn belt!
Our stump grinder hire Pitlochry fleet
Our hand-pushed range features FSI walk behind grinders tailored for domestic gardens, restricted residential access, and less demanding commercial tasks where tracked machinery is not needed. Such agile units effortlessly traverse ordinary garden gates, safeguard lawns from turf rutting, and easily tackle stumps up to 18 to 24 inches in diameter, depending on the species.
When dealing with substantial works, we deploy tracked self propelled FSI grinders featuring radio remote technology to keep operators securely distanced from the active cutting wheel. These tracked machines are the ideal choice for housing developments, council roadside contracts, golf course tree clearances, hardwood removals, and any site requiring thorough daily stump clearing. Crucially, rugged tracks effortlessly conquer steep slopes and soft terrain that would quickly topple a standard pedestrian unit.
When stump grinder hire makes more sense than buying
Why purchase when you can hire? Hiring is the ultimate option for operators without the steady stump grinding volume to justify purchasing. It is perfect for contractors taking on an particularly large single project, or crews looking to avoid locking in vital capital in short-term machinery!
Renting suits users of a pedestrian unit who only occasionally require a tracked grinder. Getting the larger machine for a short period works out cheaper than acquiring equipment that will sit idle for most of the season.
Relying on a dedicated specialist ensures you secure the ideal grinder for the job, rather than what is lingers on a standard hire shelf. It is a vital distinction. Hiring a stump grinder from an outlet handling pressure washers and floor sanders means your essential kit only gets the basic care given to a muddy cement mixer.

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 small design that is well optimised for home gardens and extremely confined residential spaces.
Tracked grinders use hydraulic tracks to drive themselves, fitted with stronger engines and bigger cutting wheels to clear hardwood stumps on high-volume contracts. Walk-behind machines reach tight spaces and cost less daily.
Tracked machinery increases the pace of operations, extends more deeply underground, and clears bigger hardwood stumps.
How deep can your stump grinders cut below ground level?
The depth of your cut depends on the relevant model. Pedestrian FSI grinders typically go several inches several inches underground, which reliably prevents regrowth and creates a level surface for fresh lawn to flourish.
Bigger tracked machines deliver more substantial depth, important if you are planning on replanting, slabbing, or developing over the area. Set out your future ground plans. We will select the exact unit to deliver your required cutting depth.
