When it comes to engines, there’s just no replacement for displacement. The Rayco RG74T-R is a high-production stump cutter powered by a massive 3.8L Cummins 74-hp (55.18 kW) diesel engine that generates peak torque of 295ft-lb (400Nm).

The large displacement diesel engine delivers more cutting power than most 100-hp-class (74.57 kW) stump cutters and meets Tier 4 Final emissions without complex after-treatment systems. Compared to the competition, the difference is clear.

What should I consider before buying a stump cutter?

Factors to consider include the size of stumps you need to remove, the terrain and accessibility of your work area, the power and capacity of the machine.

What size stumps can a stump cutter handle?

Stump cutters can handle stumps of various sizes depending on the machine's size and power. Generally, they can grind stumps ranging from a few inches in diameter up to several feet in diameter.

How long does it take to grind a stump?

The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, type of wood, and the power of the stump cutter. Smaller stumps can typically be ground in a matter of minutes, while larger and more complex stumps may take longer.

What are the advantages of using a stump cutter?

Stump cutters efficiently and effectively remove stumps, eliminating tripping hazards, preventing regrowth, and clearing space for new landscaping or construction projects. They also reduce the physical effort and time required compared to manual stump removal methods.

Can stump cutters be used in residential areas?

Yes, many stump cutters are designed for use in residential areas. Smaller, more maneuverable models are available that can access tight spaces and minimize disruption to surrounding landscaping.

How do you maintain a stump cutter?

Maintenance typically includes regular checks of oil levels, sharpening or replacing carbide teeth on the cutting wheel, checking hydraulic fluid levels, and inspecting belts and hoses for wear. Following the manufacturer's maintenance schedule is important to ensure the machine operates efficiently and safely.
