I have the Woodland Mills badged version and it works great with an HST tractor.

It bounces an L3901 around pretty good. A BX is going to be a lot more fun....

I have had one for about 6 months and ground 25+ smaller (10 to 20 inch) stumps. Only issue is sore neck from looking backwards. Overall happy with purchase.
I have since hooked up a wyze cam and will run with local wifi around the house and on hot spot when out of range. Have not used the camera yet but getting ready to do some 36-48 inch stumps.

I too have the Woodland Mills Stump Grinder, which looks identical to the MechMaxx. I love mine but it can tax your neck muscles from looking backwards and down as you move front and back making cuts. Mine is used on a MX5100, with no issues. I've ground about 30 stumps and have not even chipped a tooth.

I have the Woodland Mills stump grinder and I use a wireless backup camera attached to a magnet and mounted it on the grinder where it provides a view of the grinding wheel and the stump. Just watch the monitor in the cab and no sore neck.

 

[ChiefWebb]

Bobnic, I'm surprised the magnet doesn't fall off while grinding. I'm considering a camera but was thinking I would mount it on the rear of the tractor. Gives me something to think about.

I use a magnetic wireless solar camera with mine. It is a backup camera with 7 inch display. The magnet is awful strong but I have been driving a steel tube in the ground about 4 ft behind the stump to stick it to for perfect vision without vibrations shown on the monitor. Good for about 80 feet they claim.

I used my new WM 28" grinder this weekend to grind ten spruce stumps 12-16" diameter. Took about 1.5 hours.

I'm liking it better than digging out the roots but I do think it's hard on the tractor. Less ground tear up using the grinder.

Ordered a MechMaxx yesterday. We have dozens of stumps now and will be dropping probably another dozen dead trees this year, so I hope it works well on our L2501.
Will advise when we get it in a few weeks.
Already have friends and a neighbor that are interested in seeing how well it works.

With friends and neighbors it can quickly pay for itself....

Wonder how it will work on an L4060 HSTC. I have a 4 camera display, so adding a camera will be easy. I need to add one anyway so I can see the baler and other implements without craning around. Mirrors are only so good. I have plenty of stumps to remove myself, but I can also hire someone for $75 a stump. Will need to count stumps.

I did a fresh cut cherry 20 inch stump last night. Up to now I did some older walnut stumps about the same size and they were easy to grind. Well that cherry was a match for my little tractor with only a little over 19 pto hp. Could only take light cuts and then it tore off a chunk along with a rock that got jammed and killed my tractor. The clutch is set so it slips under load when the engine starts logging but with a fast hit, it didn't slip for some reason. Stalled the machine instantly. Maybe it needs a shear pin along with the clutch for impacts. Anyone know of higher quality replacement cutters? I need to replace a couple after the cherry and rock hit. Better then digging them.

Not sure which flavor of grinder you got. Here are a few places to look at for replacement teeth. In the mean time, just rotate the bad teeth out and swap them for the teeth that are close to the center of your flywheel. They rarely get any use so they are likely in "new" condition.

Thanks for the links. I wonder if MechMaxx uses the same teeth as Woodland Mills. I like the re tipping option, but will have to buy a set first. That carbide used seems very brittle on mine and I bet good tips would last better. Definitely haven't touched the center cutters yet so swapping would be a good option. I took the grinder off for now and am going to take the pto clutch apart first to see if I can figure out why that didn't slip this time.

I looking for higher quality replacements to try and compare or possibly a kit to convert it to standard commercial cutters on the outer row.

Carbide is brittle.
