We have a flail mower which we use on a Volvo EC25, it works fine when flailing but you cannot slew and flail at the same time. However, I am sure a grinder would be fine as you obviously will not need to slew to any great extent when using the grinder.

The FSI ST20H Grinder is built for 1.5 - 2.5 tonne excavators, I have sold these to customers using them on 1.5 tonners and all works well.

Take a look at our website and give me a call to discuss 07880 646067

I think that depends how you define "works well"!

 

 

How much are they? I suppose if they are really cheap then it is viable and not worth running a dedicated grinder.

 

One of the 13hp wheeled grinder looks similar and a 25hp push along will be a vast amount quicker.

 

The only way I can see you can make one work well is with a dedicated engine and pump. I thought about making something that you pick up with brackets on the blade. A 30hp + engine and matching cutting head.

Not the best vid or operator, any grinder will stall when trying to take too much in 1 pass for the size of the machine or is ditched into the ground, the downside with 360 mounted grinders is that there is no pivot point sat on the ground to steady the machine to gauge the depth of the cut and the slew can be difficult to operate slow enough. It may be better to fit the grinder at 90 degrees to the cab and instead of slewing, grind by moving the dipper arm in and out, might give a little more control.

Price wise the RETAIL price for ST20H is £3,500 + VAT + mounting bracket.

I would be happy to talk a deal if anyone is interested:thumbup1:
