Vermeer has expanded its stump cutter lineup offering increased options for the customer. The new SC362 stump cutter was developed with rental yards and tree care contractors in mind offering a compact, high horsepower machine for stump removal. Equipped with a 35-hp (26.1 kW) Vanguard engine, a hydraulic ground drive and a belt driven cutter head, the SC362 provides operators with ample power and maneuverability to take out medium-sized stumps with the productivity and reliability that the field demands. The Vermeer SC362 is a great addition to any tree care or rental equipment fleet and the right complement to any Vermeer brush chipper or mini skid steer.
Features and benefits: A 35-hp (26.1 kW) Vanguard gasoline engine offers low vibration, low emissions and a limited three-year warranty.
Move easily between stumps with the selectable two-speed ground drive.
Vermeer AutoSweep® system (optional) monitors engine rpm and adjusts cutter wheel sweep rate.
All of the belts are found on one side of the machine for convenient belt servicing
