Clearing land and maintaining an acreage is no easy task. Sure cutting down trees is one thing, but there's always that pesky stump to remove. The innovative folks at Taylor-Pittsburgh have come up with a new stump cutter designed for compact tractors.

The 3-pt. mounted tool uses an unique 30-inch cutting head that can engage a large area of the stump simultaneously and it reduces the time it takes to remove a stump. In fact a user can cut a 30-in. stump down 18-inches in less than 15 minutes. Maximum horsepower allowed for this machine is 55 hp, so it's just right for your smaller chore tractor. And it works with a Cat. II hitch. Suggested list price is $8,900. Learn more about the stump cutter by calling 423/745-3110.
