Eterra Auger Stump Planer Description  The Eterra Auger Stump Planer is a cost-effective and high-quality accessory, designed to fit with Eterra 3500 and 4500 model auger drives. If you frequently encounter pesky stumps impeding your work, but not enough to warrant a dedicated stump-grinding machine, this attachment could be your solution. Instead of outsourcing stump removal, utilize your Eterra Auger to incorporate the Stump Planer onto your 2-inch hex drive.  This Stump Planer is compatible with any auger possessing a 2" Hex output shaft, given appropriate torque levels.  If you don't have a 2" Hex output shaft, consider our Eterra Auger Adapters. This planer is complete with three replaceable steel tool cutters that are able to be sharpened, and a starter tip with an 18" digging depth. Equipped with guides on the cutter's trailing edge, the planer does not recoil from the hole. The starter tip aids in pushing the planer through the stump, avoiding overload or jamming. Stump Planer Torque Requirements: Torque output depends on your auger drive's rating and your loader's hydraulic flow. For torque output information, refer to your auger drive's specifications or consult with the manufacturer. 10" Stump Planer Torque Range: 2,200-6,000 Ft. Lbs.14" Stump Planer Torque Range: 3,300-6,000 Ft. Lbs. **Please note: this accessory is not recommended for hard wood or green wood (fresh) stumps. Given appropriate torque levels, it's possible that this will work for you, but productivity may be limited. Give us a call to confirm how you will be using this stump planer and we will happily steer you in the right direction.** Features
Available in 10" and 14" sizes Attaches to 2" hex drive  Capable of boring up to 18 inches Compatible with auger extensions for deeper drilling Combine the 10" Planer with the Eterra 3500 Auger Attachment Combine the 14" Planer with the Eterra 4500 Auger Attachment

Well made and works very well as a a more affordable alternative to a full-fledged stump grinder. It is slower of course, but very effective. 24" diameter stump took me about 1/2 hour and I would expect I will get more efficient with it as time goes on. It is not high-speed though, don't expect it to be and you will be happy with it.

I would say the Planer worked exactly as I expected or hoped it would. It takes some learning as does any item would. I did an oak stump that was probably 42” in diameter. It took awhile but so would a $6,000 stump grinder. For what I do and needed for the cost it’s perfect. More of my stumps that I do are usually 24” or so.

Hey Steve, Glad to hear you're satisfied with the Eterra Stump Planer! You nailed it on the head, and it sounds like you made the right call going with this rather than a more expensive grinder. We'd love to see some photo or video of your grinding that 42" stump!! Let us know if you need anything else for your machine. Skid Steer Solutions

I'm able to use this with no issues on a mini excavator that only develops 2000lb/ft of torque. Highly recommended!

So far we have used it to remove 6 large pine tree stumps which took on average about 40 minutes to do for each, using a Bobcat Toolcat 5610. Was pleasantly surprised how it was able to chase the large surface roots and remove them as well. Also pleasantly surprised how after chasing the roots through dirt the bit appears as new. Well worth the money as it has now paid for itself.

Just purchased a New Auger Stump Planer from Skid Steer. After using one that I had borrowed for a couple of weeks, I decided this was something that I needed to as to my list of "Need to Have". I had been wanting to get rid off several stumps but could never figure a good way to afford the removal, must less do it myself until this little trick came along. It works like a charm. Easy to use, low maintenance and gets the job done. Highly suggested if you have a moderate amount of stumps to remove.
