Is it the kind you swing side to side with your arms I have one like that it is a Pro-mark. It is green and the cutter wheel is back by the handle

yes, the cutter wheel is out in front by 4 feet or so , it has 13 small half inch cutters on the wheel.

$2500 15 years ago and now wants $1000?? It reminds me of this saying...how does it go...oh yeah! "pound sand" Save the $1000 and put it toward a nice used one made this decade when you have the ching.
 
Lumberjacked is right, don't waste your money. By the time you get it in shape to work for you, you could have bought a lot newer and better machine than that. Ebay is full of good machines under $3-4k.

Walk away from that one!
 
I would suggest you find the nearest service center for whatever type of machine (Carlton, Rayco, Vermeer, etc.) and go with that unless you feel like you can handle servicing the machine yourself. One more thing, don't go less than a 27 h.p. engine, you'll beat yourself and the machine to death otherwise.

Good Hunting.
 
cuttes

thanks , i may have to pass on it , i can not find the cutters for it , been looking on the web, they round shafted about 2' long , half inch cutters, all i find is square shafts, this stump grinder has not been used that much,, i live in a rural area , i don't think i could pay for a high dollar grinder ? my father- in- law was going to pay for it, just had to do his 18 stumps for it.
