Tony explains the spiral-tooth drum design versus staggered double-teeth units, rotatable stump-grinder-style teeth, and repairability, then runs it for two hours, repeatedly clarifying it's not a stump grinder. Useful for buyers comparing mulcher tooth designs and PTO horsepower needs.
An owner-operator homesteader testing a manufacturer-provided prototype attachment on his own property, sharing firsthand impressions rather than a dealer sales pitch.
No, it is not a stump grinder. It can shave soft, rotten old stumps over time but will damage the mulcher on hard or fresh wood like white oak.
The 460 is a sweet spot for about 30 PTO horsepower, maybe up to 50. A turbo tractor like the T574 gives extra lugging power for digging in.
Teeth have three cutting sides; unloosen the bolt, pull the tooth, rotate it one turn, and tighten for a new cutting surface, repeatable three times.
Yes, rectangular holes are cut into the drum and tooth mounts are welded in, so a ripped-loose mount can be repaired fairly easily.
