Any Stump, Anywhere!
I have a SC60tx, SC50tx, and an SC372. My SC50tx grinder wheel is real beat up and ready to be replaced. I have heard a lot of mixed opinions on some of the after market stump grinder wheels, but I want to make the most informed purchase because I know whatever I put on, I will end up using for years.
I have always just ran the wheels that come with the machine, I did switch years ago to the yellow jacket system, which is way better than the old pro style that I grew up using. I want to hear from people that have used yellow jacket teeth and switched to a different tooth style. I grind a ton of stumps, I really would like to cut down on the amount of teeth on the wheel and cost of teeth as well. I've consider green teeth in the past because they appear to be easier to sharpen. But the wheel itself I need to upgrade too! We have a Vermeer dealer where I am located and so that has been a big selling point to just stay with the vermeer teeth, so I don't have to wait for shipping. Also, I've been told that you could eliminate a few sets of the pockets on the grinder and notice no difference in your performance, if anyone has done this, please let me know which ones and I'll give it a shot before making a decision.
