P28x or p38x

 

So trying to decide which on to go for. We need a grinder that will fit through the standard gateway so can't go any bigger.

Obversely diesel being cheaper but despite the diesel being 10hp less how much less torque does it have. Side by side how much slower is the 28 compared to the 38.

I asked Simon at predator the other day and although they didn't give me a definitive answer I got the impression that there would be very little difference between them as the petrol would be running faster but lacks the torque of the diesel had a 28 a few weeks ago was an animal I did two big ash stumps in 2 and a bit hours it was a hire machine so would have thought it had been turned down on the power I'll be buying a 28

Heavy machines so be prepared to either lay boards on lawns or make good afterwords.

 

Plenty of grunt but bit too top heavy for me and getting through narrow access is great as long as you don't need to turn tight corners with the grinding arm fixed out front.
