SC40TX stump grinder is first with stand-on platform

As we’ve previously noted, adding stump removal to your list of services could be a way for you to grow your tree care business.

Vermeer has a stump grinder with a first-of-its-kind feature intended to help contractors take the next step — no matter whether they are new to stump grinding or already offer the service.

The SC40TX stump cutter comes with a stand-on platform, making it the first stump grinder on the market with that feature. The platform helps give the SC40TX superior speed, maneuverability and operator comfort compared with traditional self-propelled machines.

Other features include:

  • A 40-horsepower (29.8 kW) Kohler diesel engine.
  • A 36-inch (91.4 cm) width, allowing the SC40TX to fit through standard gates.
  • A counter-rotating track undercarriage that makes it easier to reposition when cutting a stump.
  • Two dedicated positions from which to operate the stump grinder — one on the side of the machine and the other on the platform on the back of the machine, which is ideal when space is tight.

The SC40TX is available through the Vermeer global dealer network.
