Vermeer SC372 Stump Cutter

For residential or municipal stump removal, the SC372 goes to work with a combination of power and agility. Its compact frame can navigate tight spots, but doesn’t leave a big footprint. An optional AutoSweep® system boosts productivity, while electric clutch engagement eliminates the need for manual adjustments.

Features and Benefits

The new user-friendly operator presence system provides additional safety by automatically stopping the cutter wheel when the operator’s hands leave the cutter wheel control levers.
Extend tooth and pocket life with the Yellow Jacket™ Cutter System, which features a universal tooth to fit all cutting positions.
Power through stumps using the SC372’s belt-driven gearbox drive system for increased horsepower to the cutter wheel.
