- Renting a stump grinder for the day is easy if you have a vehicle that can tow and you have a DIY mindset. These grinders are powerful but relatively easy to use. Just remember to wear your PPE and watch for flying debris!

Thanks for posting. I needed a visual to finally push me to DIY 🙌🏻
I just had 3 trees removed. All about 30-35" diameter stumps from 50+ year old trees. It cost me $4600 to have them removed and to remove stumps was gonna cost about another $2k so I was wondering how hard these were to use since it's only about $320 at my local home depot. I think I'll try this myself. Thanks for showing us how it works!
How did it work for you?
I just rented one to knock out 2 big stumps at my sister's house saves you a bunch of of money easy to use
Where the heck do you live that they charge $2K for 3 stumps with 36" base? That would be maybe $500 or less in Upstate NY
I highly doubt that unless that's a friend, family members price. I also live in upstate NY with a stump grinder, and I wouldn't touch 3 - 36" stumps for less than $1,200 it's not worth the drive and your time to do for less when you factor in the cost of equipment, insurance etc... running a legitimate business isn't cheap. However, I completely agree if you are able and have a truck to transport you will save a ton renting one and doing it yourself!
@@xtexbrown technically he told me it would be approximately $1400 just to do basic grinding to the ground but if I wanted him to go down below the surface and grind all the big roots since this was a big tree that would bring it closer to $2000 including hauling away all the chips. This is in Washington state south of Seattle.
Nice machine...drive belt needs adjustment and don't come down on top of the stump...set your depth and work your way in using the front of the wheel...not the bottom...then you wont miss anything
Thanks! That makes a lot of sense!
@@adventureswithtim5598 he is 100% correct lmao. I see this way to often
This is good I enjoyed watching it.
GreatVideo!!!! New Sub.
Thanks for watching!
380 to rent and do the work myself or pay a stump grinder 250 and I do nothing. Yeah I'll hire someone.
Depends on size of job I guess. If you can have someone do it for that price I'd go with that as well!
Maybe for 1 or 2 but if you have many stumps and and have the ability to use the machine go for it
Thanks for the share - I may have missed this answer that I about to ask. How many stumps and their average circumference did you accomplish in your 4 hour window? (and I realize you had some setup time and recording time you dealt with as well). Thanks again!
Hard to fully remember but I was able to get rid of at least 10-15 little 4-16" stumps. I think 2-3 12" stumps and then a monster. Species of wood and age of stump really will determine time as I was working through black cherry and its very tough! Cuts through pine like it wasn't even there.
good day! what is the volume of oil in the system? does not overheat during operation?
I am unsure of the oil. The manufacturer is Barreto which you may be able to find on their website. This unit barely heated up for me and I bet it is designed to work all day!
How deep do you have to go to grind a stump?
Really depends on the size of the stump! You will notice when the machine no longer hits wood.
Should have made a guide on the controls.
Thank you for the feedback! I will add in some diagrams.
Clearly you don't know how to use this machine or technique for grinding stumps.
And yet he was so much more helpful than yourself. Check out "the man in the arena".
