Here's a large copper beech stump we did.

 

Cut the stump off at the right angle to slide it in the trailer with the digger and then ground out with a Predator 75.

 

The ground sloped and the buttresses were well exposed with weathering and years of foot traffic erosion.

 

The widest measure taken between exposed buttresess and roots was 19'.

 

All off site and reinstated. :001_smile:

how long did it take to grind out

 

From starting the saw to finishing the site, 2 of us, about 4 hours, we had dinner and did a 4' cedar stump on another part of the grounds to the same spec in the afternoon.

 

The grinder was stopped, but not for long, while I went to tip the arisings a couple of times.
