Is anyone using the Multi Tip stump cutter wheels at the moment. Trying to chew through a wet two foot pine stump with regular finger teeth on a Husky 13hp machine is embarrasingly slow, even with a teeth switch / resharpen. Beginning to regret not getting the Alpine Magnum, that was quick....

Ive got the same grinder, had it for 4/5 years... should pi$$ through that stump with sharp teeth which btw shouldnt need re-sharpening on a stump that small.

 

OK, can you suggest where I may be going wrong? I'm new to this, the tips were probably a little dull from a willow stump the previous week, but other than that I realize the machine should make light work of it really.

I agree you should be having no problems.

 

I use both Multi tip and finger teeth and I would stick with the finger teeth. just as good and much cheaper.

The only thing needed is sharp teeth and a good operator, if the teeth are set up right.

Make sure your teeth are set up correctly, not sure about your machine but mine has 9 pairs but only 3 pairs do any cutting, if the leading teeth are not set right it will be like a spoon. My 13hp JBM would do that pine stump in 20min with sharp teeth!
