eBay anything under 20hp isn't worth bothering with IMO I've hired them before I bought my own and they were rubbish! This leaves you with the dosko, Carlton and dan equip big pedestrian machines which go for £2500 upwards generally.

This is just my humble opinion...

I used to hire grinders, and found so many customers had narrow side gates that I couldn't get the machines through.

In the end I bought a 13HP rayco.

Yes, Billy, its hard work compared to the sort of grinders they used on Thunderbirds BUT it does get through narrow gates and earns me loads of dosh which I wouldn't be able to earn if I couldn't get at the stumps.

As a matter of fact I recon I can remove a 15 inch oak stump to 12 inches below ground level in well under half an hour. If you're gonna grind out huge/accessible stumps get a monster, if most of your work is smaller, domestic then go fro a narrow/smaller pedestrian one.

I recon I do £300-£500 worth of stumps every monthe where other local guys couldn't get to the stumps.

You should be able to get one for around £1500 second hand, any cheaper likely to be knackered imo.

I like my POS 13hp dosko. It pays itself off every couple months, a couple of us can carry it up stairs and it has a tow hitch on it so I can just tow it behind my trucks or ute (often leave it on site and pick it up when in the area doing quotes), and I only operate it by the hour, but give people a rough idea of cost. Also have a stumpmaster which is for the really tough jobs.'

 

Choose the grinder that best suits your work and budget.
