2026 BaumaLight Excavator Stump Grinder S18

The S18 skid steer stump grinder is designed to go on both skidsteers and small excavators. With a quick pull of two pins, a standard size skidsteer plate can be put on as well. The direct flow hydraulic drive is designed to provide the best torque and RPM to the cutting head as no flow is diverted to a swing cylinder. The S18 Baumalight stump grinder is offered with three motor options to best match your flow. The massive ¾" thick steel rotor provides the back bone for the Stump Blaster cutting system. It’s the anchor for the carbide tipped teeth. For smooth operation it’s important that the rotor remains solid, with no flexing. The rugged rotor also provides the Stump Blaster with the extra momentum needed when the grinding is tough, making sure the Stump Blaster can power through the hardest stumps. A S18 with a motor of S450 having a PSI of 2500 can cut a stump of 24 inches in 60 mins at 12 GPM, whereas the same motor parameter and increased PSI of 3000 can cut a stump of 24 inches in 50 mins at 12 GPM. If the GPM is increased to 15, the time taken will be reduced. The unique positioning of the rotor allows the operator an excellent view of the stump grinding action, and the heavy duty fixed deflector safely directs the flow of debris. Cutting depth is up to 10" below ground. Our grease pins are zinc plated to prevent corrosion which will allow for smoother operation of the units joints over their lifetime.
