HI,
I've just bought an Alpine Magnum, the machine itself is great but the teeth dont seem to last very long at all.
Ground out a few stumps the other day,less than an hours worth of grinding, the soil was clean (no noticeable rocks,stones etc) but the teeth are now destroyed :/ there not even just blunt there chipped and cracked to death, there would be no chance/point of sharpening them.
Is this they way it is with the grinders or do you think it could be a bad batch of teeth or something?
If they only last that long then i can see it being a VERY costly machine to run, the teeth are about £6+vat+shipping so its about £50 a set
So then, to all owners of the Alpine how to you rate the teeth,machine etc? And do you buy new teeth or get them retipped? (I havent found anywhere that retipps them yet,so info on this would also be appreciated)
Thanks
