J.P. Carlton released a new stump cutter designed for clearing and large residential removal applications.
The SP8018TRX has a 99-hp turbocharged Kubota diesel engine combined with a two-stage cutter head drive. The Carlton Razor Cutting System offers a low profile holder design coupled with large-faced carbide teeth, which provide high cut-to-friction ratio. Also, the unit has a Caterpillar track undercarriage.
The stump cutter features cutting dimensions of 43 inches above ground, 18 inches below ground and 80 inches of sweep. The turntable design lowers the machine’s center of gravity, which the company says makes it stable while providing large cutting dimensions and reducing flex and wear points.
