Thinking about adapting a PT stump grinder attachment for use on my Magnatrac. Would appreciate any and all info (photos would be especially helpful) about the PT stump grinder... how it attaches, how it is powered, how it is maneuvered, how it performs, etc.
I'm guessing that it is powered by a hydraulic motor? and that it attaches on the quick attach plate in front? My Magnatrac has a hydraulic circuit for powering the hydraulic PTO motor. I am thinking about adapting or making a stump cutter attachment to go on the backhoe in place of the bucket. Got the idea from a pic I saw on the net of a big excavator with a huge stump grinder and hydraulic thumb in place of the bucket. I couldn't find the pic on my computer... guess I didn't save it. I'll surf around and see if I can find it again. It was an awesome machine.
Thanks a bunch
