Overview

About this machine

The FSI B31 makes stump cutting operations straightforward with its easy-to-use controls and minimal maintenance requirements.

Key features such as its efficient petrol engine, triple-pump setup, and counter-rotating track undercarriage improve performance, power efficiency, manoeuvrability, and stability across all terrains.

Built-in hydraulic motor brakes and a counterbalance valve make the stump cutter stay in position even on slopes and while cutting.

FSI B31’s hydraulic driven cutter wheel eliminates the need for V-belt adjustments while a soft-start valve and integrated oil cooler ensure smooth performance and stability even in high-temperature regions.

No daily maintenance

The hydraulic drive of the cutting head eliminates the need for daily maintenance since there are no V-belts to adjust or replace. This reduces operating costs and the time spent in the workshop.

All-access

Go where others can’t with this incredibly narrow stump cutter. The compact design, counter-rotating tracks and a low center of gravity enhance stability and manoeuvrability in all kinds of terrain.

Big sweep

Avoid the need to reposition FSI B31. Equipped with two hydraulic cylinders, it covers 120 cm in a single sweep - ensuring a large working area.

Full view

The swing-out operator panel offers an exceptional view of the working area while conveniently placing all necessary controls within reach. It still allows travel through narrow gates by swinging in line with the machine when traveling.

Safe transport

With multiple, easy-accessible lashing and lifting points you can quickly fasten this stump cutter for transport and arrive safely to the next jobsite.
