Enhancing Stump Grinding Safety with the STEIN Modular Guard

As a tree surgeon or arborist, you understand the importance of safety when handling heavy machinery like stump grinders. Stump grinding, a crucial step in tree removal, involves the use of rotating cutting blades to remove stumps from the ground. However, this process can also generate flying debris, posing a significant risk to operators and bystanders.

To address this safety concern, STEIN, a leading provider of tree care equipment, has redesigned its Modular Guarding System (MGS) specifically for stump grinding applications. This innovative system provides enhanced protection against flying debris, ensuring the safety of all involved in the stump grinding process.

Key Features of the STEIN Modular Stump Grinder Guard

The STEIN Modular Stump Grinder Guard features a robust construction that withstands the rigors of stump grinding operations. The system consists of three individual panels made from heavy-duty 20mm steel tubing, ensuring durability and stability.

Each panel measures 115cm in height and 105cm in width, providing ample coverage to protect operators and bystanders from flying debris. The panels are securely connected using sturdy connection clips, ensuring a stable and secure barrier.

The system's powder-coated finish protects the steel tubing from corrosion, extending the lifespan of the guard and minimizing maintenance requirements. This powder coating also enhances the guard's visibility, making it easily identifiable in the workspace.
