HIGH TORQUE STUMP GRINDING WITH SIMPLE OPERATION

The Baumalight S18 skid steer stump grinder is engineered for operators who want maximum grinding performance with minimal complexity. Its direct flow hydraulic design delivers full torque and RPM straight to the cutting head, with no power loss to swing cylinders or electrical systems. This results in faster grinding, smoother operation, and excellent control in demanding conditions.

The unique rotor positioning gives the operator a clear view of the grinding action, while the heavy-duty fixed deflector safely directs debris away from the cab. Whether you are clearing land, maintaining properties, or tackling professional stump removal jobs, the S18 delivers consistent, predictable performance.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Carbide Planer Teeth: 34 bolt-on carbide teeth share the workload, allowing each tooth to make smaller cuts. This improves cutting efficiency, extends tooth life, and reduces replacement costs.
• Direct Hydraulic Drive: Simple, rugged hydraulic system maximizes torque and RPM without electrical connections, increasing reliability and reducing downtime.
• Heavy ¾ Inch Steel Rotor: The thick steel rotor provides strength, rigidity, and added momentum, allowing the grinder to power through tough hardwood stumps without flexing.
• Enhanced Chip Clearance: Teeth extend 1¼ inches from the rotor to prevent plugging, improve chip evacuation, reduce heat buildup, and protect both teeth and rotor.
• Self-Feeding Action: Designed to naturally regulate cutting pressure, providing smooth grinding performance and reducing operator fatigue.
• Slip-Free Protection: Integrated hydraulic relief valve protects the system from sudden shock loads caused by rocks or buried debris.

BUILT FOR PRODUCTIVITY AND EASY MAINTENANCE

The S18 includes a free set of six replacement teeth stored in a protected onboard compartment. Bolt-on teeth design allows for fast, straightforward replacement, typically requiring only a few teeth at a time. Greaseable zinc-plated pins help ensure long service life and smooth operation over years of use.
