We guide you towards new FSI stump grinders across the entire pedestrian and self-propelled range. We also supply pre-owned machines from FSI and other premium brands as they enter our stock.
FSI pedestrian range (B21, B22, B28, B38)
The FSI pedestrian range includes four different models, which progressively rise in both power and capacity from the most compact to the largest.
The small B21 caters for occasional operators, garden maintenance teams, and users needing a back-up grinder alongside main tree work. The B22 and B28 models offer increased engine power and build.
These units provide speedier grinding and employ somewhat more assertive cutters, which perfectly suits professionals running the machinery multiple days monthly instead of every two weeks.
As the leading pedestrian option in this range, the B38 is designed for teams who use it often. It offers notable cutting power, readily matching light tracked equipment when utilised on the right projects.
Tree surgery firms buying their first stump grinder find the B22 or B28 delivers an excellent mix of performance and value. The B38 suits operators carrying out weekly grinding projects who want a pedestrian machine guaranteed to deliver sufficient capacity until the contract is complete.

Such machines glide through ordinary garden gates and travel lightly to guard your lawn, effortlessly conquering stumps between 18 and 24 inches wide depending on the species.
To manage large-scale projects, we provide tracked, self propelled FSI grinders, including models featuring wireless remote controls that permit operators to maintain a safe distance from the active cutting wheel.

Additionally, their tracks reliably navigate steep inclines, soft earth and challenging terrains that would easily destabilise standard pedestrian machinery.

Renting is ideal for contractors with too little stump grinding volume to warrant buying, operators undertaking a one-off clearance project greatly exceeding their typical capacity, and teams wishing to prevent tying up capital in machinery used only for several weeks annually.
Do you have a smaller pedestrian unit but from time to time land jobs needing a tracked grinder? Renting is the ideal solution! Hiring the larger kit for just a few days costs much less than buying a machine that stands unused all season.
Choosing a specialist ensures you obtain the precise grinder for your particular task, rather than just taking whatever is on offer at a general depot. Buying a stump grinder from a chain dealing with pressure washers and floor sanders means the equipment is given the same standard care as a cement mixer.
