| Multi-Tip Stump Grinder Wheels and Teeth![]() Multi-Tip is a completely new approach to stump cutter teeth and wheel design. The wheel design is polygon not circular and available for ALL MAJOR BRANDS. Typically each tooth steps out by 12mm. This means progressive cutting and good chip clearance. Some of the benefits include quick field change overs of teeth, in under 60 seconds. One tooth fits all so no need for lefts, rights and straight teeth. In this video you can see how easily and quickly you can change a tooth. The bolt that holds the tooth is non load bearing and the tooth sits in a slot which takes the force of the cut against a keeper.Morbark stump grinders as seen adjacent are fitted with this superior system standard. You can clearly see the polygon shape of the wheel and how the teeth are held in slots. Customers who have changed over from other systems are extremely happy with the longivity of the cutter teeth, they dont need to replace them as often and when they do it's easy. The same tooth can be seen doing the job in 85hp Vermeer grinder adjacent. Doesn't matter how big or small your machine is Multi-Tip is the solution for you. Often we see people "running teeth to the bone" due to the time taken to change them over and the effort. Large impact wrenches, breaker bars etc no longer need to be preventing you from tearing the next stump apart.Visit our website for more videos and information, this system will make you more productive and save you money. Please, feel free to contact us either here or on our website. |

Good to see that Multi-Tip has hit Australia. I put this system on my Rayco a couple of years ago and I reckon its added a few extra years life to it. The wheel runs a lot smoother and it grinds pretty well. The best thing is been able to put a new pair of the tips on in a few minutes. Good luck in Australia guys. I put a picture on of my Rayco . Beside it is the old wheel, which I kept for a couple of months - just in case. I sold it for scrap now. |

Farrell Smith Business Owner - "currently use Multitip on my Bandit 2100 and had previously used the standard set up from Bandit. The cutter wheel houses twenty teeth and twenty pockets which was in excess of $800 to replace plus labour of aproximately 1.5 hours. The new Multitip system on our machine only houses 8 teeth and no pockets which has brought the cost to replace all teeth down to around $240 and the labour time to around 15 minutes. As a business owner it has saved me $$$$$$$, Labour and from having to keep heavy tools on site We are currently getting twice the hours out of the Multitip system than the standard version. I would highly reccomend Multitip to anyone who wants to save money, time and labour." Paul Fleming The Operator- " i was using the old system for approx 3 years and have found changing over to the Mulitip system a very benificaial transition, it has made my life easier, not more blood sweat and tears!! Ha ha ha as an operators point of view there is no more labour intensive maintenance, i get a lot more hours out of my teeth and it seems to be a smoother better cut all round. Happy Stump grinding!!

Other than the advantages of less teeth and faster change overs you are saying the teeth actually last longer? See, it seems in no time I fit new teeth and bam, they're blunt again. So these also last longer on the machine right? I'm up for a set now, lets see, 8 teeth x $20 + bolts = $200 plus I drive around to Bridgestone tyres and break out their 1200nm hammer gun to rattle the bastids off! At home I have a 13 cubic foot compressor with a 500nm rattle gun and it doesn't get them off. It's the most powerful rattle gun I can run that compressor. The compressor is the largest I can run before going to 3 phase. Had I have known of this system at purchased point I would have insisted or purchased minus a wheel for my grinder. Now I'm contemplating a change over next bearing/front end overhaul.

Yeah, they do last longer, but I think the reason is because I used to have 18 tips before, now I got 24 - so theres more to spread the load. What I find is that I have to change the front teeth pair more often to keep it running smooth (it cuts quicker - saves time!), but then I keep the old pair and use them lower down the wheel when they need replacing. This way you can use a tooth until it dies. But the best thing is, as you say, it only takes a couple of minutes to change the teeth and you dont need to be superman to do it! I reckon I save more money this way. I wouldn't go back now. Dave |

I run a Laski 27hp 4 wheeled model,i went to the multitip system about a year ago after twice managing to shear off the original wheels pocket bolt when hitting a star picket and rock.with multi tip the bolt holds no weight and is easy to undo with an allen key or a inhex socket the teeth cut much faster than the original teeth did

I gotta take my brolly to work more often too. I didn't know you had one fitted. Tell me, was it much of a job to do the change over? Did the old wheel come off easy from the shaft and did the new wheel fit right?

I own a small but very busy stump removal business working in Sydney metro. I've been using muti tip for several years now.I ran them on a rayco 1625 & now on a bandit 2100.On both machines they cut much better and with less strain on the motor.It is cheaper to retip the cutting wheel and they can be changed very quickly.If you own a stump removal business and want to save time and money you should give it a try.I would'nt go back to the other rubbish! |

what does the change-over to the new wheel cost in addition to the new teeth? I've got an old Rayco 1620 Super Jr. that green teeth would not fit into. How wide are the teeth? |

I started in the stump removal businees in Dec 1997, with a new Vermeer 202 25 Hp machine. I purchased a new Stumpman 50 HP machine in 2005. I n the last eleven years I think I have tried just about all of the commercially avilable Stump cutting teeth in that time. Naturally, the performance varies as to the type of machine and the stump you are cutting. Last year I had the chance to use the Multi-tip teeth from MULTI-TIP AUSTRALIA | flash check . I have found these teeth, to be very effecient and very productive. They have significantly reduced down time due to teeth change-over times, extremely good as to the replacement of main bearings, as I have not had to change a set of bearings since they were fitted, Usually I,d change at least one set per annum. Not to mention the actual increase in operating performance of the machine with these teeth fitted. I highly recommend the Multi-Tip teeth system to all Stump Grinder operators. Note; I am not in any way associated with Multi-Tip and offer the above comments for general information Ron. Mr Tree Stumps - Wagga Wagga NSW - Machine Tree Stump Grinding |

Ron, what do you think of that Stumpman machine? IS it stable enough?

In reponse to a question regarding the stability of the Stumpman stump Grinder. When I purchased the machine I also was supplied with a set of extentable wheels (Training Wheels)_ and I did use them at first Until I was confident in using it. I have,nt been in the habit of using them unless there is a site that is a bit suspect. Although on a couple of occassions the machine has "fallen over", mainly crossing over the spoil and not paying attention. This has also happened many times on the small Vermeer. But if you plan your route properly, you can cross very steep terrain , particularly,if you extend the cutting arm as a counter balance. Not to tried by the inexperienced, but once competant I believe , if properly used, it would certainly be the most nimble machine on the market, and better still:Made in Australia. Regards Ron |

Be good to get some short video of that machine in action, sure seems compact for 50hp.

I'll ring him, might make another good sponsor, for the peanuts it costs to advertise here he'd be crazy not too! Also, darn his website needs work, it sucks!

G'day Eric I've read the responses to the inquiry regarding stump teeth at- Vermeer Yellow Jacket Stump Teeth. It occurs to me that a great many people in this industry have a high regard for your opinion and that the detail that you supply suggests that you research and analyse the subject at hand. It also occurs to me that there is a lot of misinformation in the industry of stump grinding. This being the case, I make the following proposal MULTI-TIP Australia will supply 'Treeworld' at no cost, with a MULTI-TIP set-up kit and spare set of teeth for any machine that you suggest for evaluation (other than a handheld machine) and that you use it and test the system as you would your own equipment. This offer is without prejudice. Please feel free to contact me regarding any questions you may have.

Hey Lopa, you got 60HP I only have 24HP so I need the better performing system. ![]() Heck, I'm up for it too. And I'll shoot video (and load to YouTube) of the entire process, installing the wheel, running and comparing it to the old system which is utilizing 8 Tomahawk teeth. I'll even write an article with pictures etc over at TreeZines.

G'day Ekka Well, after several unrelated delays, the wheel for the 'Kanga' is now ready for delivery. We were going to deliver it and maybe help with the installation, but now we are not so sure. Our feeling is that it's better to be seen not to help/interfere, as this is supposed to be an independent assessment. So, we'll get this on the courier. We'll be guided by you on this, Ekka.
