The Hawk 13 HP stump grinder is a compact, towable machine best suited for small jobs involving just a few small stumps. Its narrow 32" design allows it to fit through standard 36" gates, making it convenient for backyard projects and areas with limited access. This grinder is intended for light-duty stump removal and is not recommended for large stumps or extensive grinding projects. For the best results, cut stumps to approximately 2" to 3" above ground before grinding. A 2" hitch ball is required for towing.
