The stump remover is a tractor-mounted implement for stump/tree root extraction. It is mounted on the rear side of a tractor (30 hp and above) through a three-point linkage system. A hydraulic double-acting cylinder is connected to the tractor's hydraulic hose pipe to actuate the arm to hold the plant body. There are two arms to dig and hold the plant body, of which one is fixed, and the hydraulic cylinder actuates the other. Weighing about 150 kg and consuming about 3.5 litres of diesel per hour, it can cover an acre of land in 10 hours. It can pull the stump from approximately 20.32 cm (8 inches) depth in the soil. The machine is mainly used for stump removal of paper wood tree roots like eucalyptus, subabul, etc. The machine's novelty is utilising the tractor's hydraulic power to undertake stump removal, done conventionally through JCBs, whose rental charges range from Rs. 12,000 -15,000 per acre.

This tractor-mounted Tree Root Puller uses your tractor's hydraulics to remove stumps for less. Easy to attach, it tackles paperwood like eucalyptus and subabul, pulling roots up to 8 inches deep. Covers an acre in 10 hours, saving you money and time.
