Old School Grinder Praxis 9hp stump grinder

[Therebel]

Hi all just been given the above for free. Runs wells and I'm planning to use it on smaller stumps due to its low weight compared to my Predator 460.

 

Does anyone remember these or still use them? If so what teeth did you use? It's a quad angle blade.

 

Any experiences with this machine would be appreciated.

 

Cheers

What hp is the engine? I had a wee 5hp Honda on mine and it did the job but was very slow to do the job... a 14” ash stump took about 2hrs, fortunately got back what I paid fer it!

It's a 9hp honda. I'm only planning to use it on right access jobs due to its small size and light weight.

i have one too,  it's the 13hp version and i bought it cheap 2 /3 years ago.  It uses the quadra blade system but apparently can be converted to run on a different cutter head and teeth setup but i have not looked into it. They are ole skool and use the hand brake to allow you to sweep across the stump which can be tiresome compared to a turntable version which is easier. Toro are still marketing it.
