SC48TX Stump Cutter

The Vermeer SC48TX stump cutter delivers high efficiency from the engine to the stump grinding wheel through a 48-hp diesel engine with a direct drive system. This machine gives operators access to tight and challenging job sites with a narrow footprint and low ground pressure to complete various jobs. Plus, operators can add features like the remote control and backfill blade to help increase productivity.

48-hp Diesel Engine
The SC48TX is equipped with a 48-hp (36-kW) 1.7L CAT Tier 4 V Diesel engine, providing optimal fuel economy, durability, and performance to efficiently cut stumps of all sizes. Backed by proven worldwide service and support to maximise productivity.

Direct Drive System
A beltless direct-drive system that delivers power from the engine to the cutter wheel through a pair of gearboxes connected by a driveshaft. This direct-drive system delivers the maximum amount of power to the cutter wheel and requires minimal maintenance.

Vermeer Cutting System
The Vermeer cutting system features a patented design that solves several challenges associated with traditional cutting systems, including double-sided teeth, a V-profile, centre core protection, minimised recirculation, and ease of maintenance. The Vermeer cutting system is designed to maximise productivity on the job site.

Low Disturbance Tracks
Designed with low-disturbance tracks, ideal for adverse ground conditions and minimal cleanup. The tracks provide optimal traction in adverse conditions while minimising turf disturbance.

Optional Backfill Blade
The optional 54-in (140cm) backfill blade can efficiently move chips around the job site, reducing the need to manually relocate the chips. Blade dimensions and ground clearance are designed for easy access through the narrow gates and travel on uneven terrain. The rounded lower edge of the blade is designed to help reduce turf damage.

Retractable Tracks
Tracks can retract to 35in (89cm) for accessing narrow job sites and extend to 55in (140cm) while in operation. This allows operators to navigate the ST48TX through narrow entrances.

Smart Sweep
SmartSweep control system introduces the next generation of cutter wheel sweep control technology by monitoring the engine load and providing continuous feedback. Resulting in a smooth and consistent cutter wheel sweep rate. The feature improves efficiency and productivity at the stump while helping to reduce wear and tear on the machine.

Swing-Out Operator’s Station
A locking pin secures the control station in one of three positions: stowed for transport, middle/intermediate or fully extended for operation.

Soft Start Clutch
The soft start clutch provides three different stages of acceleration, allowing for smoother operation of the cutting wheel.

Operator Presence
Control handles for the boom swing, boom raise/lower are equipped with an operator presence handle design which provides the capacitance-sensing capability. If the operator’s hand(s) leave the control, the cutter wheel will disengage, come to a stop within seconds and the cutter wheel indicator light will go out. The cutter wheel can be re-engaged by actuating the cutter wheel drive switch regardless of engine rpm. This user-friendly operator presence system helps protect the operator and enhance operator safety.

Cutting Dimensions
Straight–line cutting dimension of 67in (170cm), above grade cutting dimension of 28in (71cm) and below grade cutting dimension of 16in (41cm). Vermeer’s class-leading cutting capabilities allow operators to grind a wide variety of stumps.

Vermeer Telematics (Optional)
WIth the optional telematics enabled, operators can get real-time machine data to help maximise machine productivity and machine life.
