Dipperfox Stump Grinder-Interview With Raavo From Dipperfox
Recently I had the privilege of talking to Raavo; you can see the Dipperfox stump grinder interview with Raavo from Dipperfox below.
The Dipperfox stump grinder or stump crusher as it is more widely known is a very unique and quick way of disposing of unwanted tree stumps.
Traditionally, to remove a tree stump, a stump grinder is used with a high-speed cutter head that grinds away at the tree stump. It’s not a fast process, even with the larger track machines.
Dipperfox has created a machine that literally drills out the tree stump exceptionally quickly. Rather than grinding the tree stump from the side of the stump, the Dipperfox drills into the stump, vertically.
The main advantage of this process is the speed at which tree stump can be removed. Raavo quotes some impressive actual figures in the video interview below. Another large plus factor is the fact that the stump crusher works at low revs, so there’s no flying debris. 90% of the time when I am tree stump grinding, I need to board up to protect objects around me. This is a time-consuming job, however, with the Dipperfox method, there is no need to do this.
Two Different Stump Crushers
Dipperfox have recently designed a new stump crusher for smaller machines. There are two machines; the Dipperfox 850 Pro and the smaller 600 models. The Dipperfox 600 is great news for landscapers and tree surgeons who require a smaller machine for gardens. And who don’t have the hydraulic capacity to run the larger Dipperfox 850 Pro.
