Mobile Screening and Crushing NZ (MSC) is a nationwide provider of material processing equipment and services, with more than 25 years in business, and the Dipperfox Stump Crusher 850 Pro is the latest addition to their product portfolio.

"Dipperfox Stump Crusher attachments are several times faster and a lot more fuel-efficient than the traditional methods of stump removal with the same job getting done many times faster, with a much cleaner end result," says Andy Meilke, MSC managing director. The unique tool is proving ideal for clearing the ground after deforestation, preparing plots for construction or farming, trenching, or urban landscaping.

Advantages

Dipperfox is capable of drilling 900mm under the chip to smash the roots

The Dipperfox Stump Crusher’s new technology for stump removal is said to be eight to 10 times more efficient than other methods currently used, its New Zealand distributors say. The outcome is similar to a stump grinder—the whole stump and roots will be cut into

small chips, but compared with stump grinding, the whole process is faster, taking between 20 and 120 seconds, depending on hardness and diameter of the tree. "Plus, Dipperfox is capable of drilling 900mm under the chip to smash the roots. Its blades have been made from wear-resistant steel and are basically rock-proof," says Andy.
