The Eterra Vortex is a skid steer stump grinder driven by a high-torque hydraulic radial piston motor. A direct-drive, oil-bath hub removes external couplers and greasing on the wheel drive, and an A572 Grade 50 housing carries 12 replaceable teeth that grind stumps below grade. Available in 27-inch and 31-inch wheels.

Shipping & Freight

For an order containing products from a single brand, shipping is a flat rate based on your order total:

  • Orders up to $5,000: $279
  • Orders $5,000 to $10,000: $347
  • Orders $10,000 and over: $517

These rates cover standard freight delivery to a commercial address. After you place your order, our team will confirm your delivery timeline within 1 to 3 business days.

Ordering from more than one brand? Multi-brand orders ship on separate freight and are quoted individually rather than at the flat rate above. Place your order or contact us first and we will confirm total freight before anything is finalized.

Liftgate service is not included in these rates. If your delivery location has no loading dock or forklift to unload the freight from the truck, liftgate service is required and will be added to your shipping charge. If you are unsure whether you need it, contact us before ordering.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access locations, and appointment scheduling may affect handling.

Lead times vary by product, manufacturer availability, and selected options. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items require additional processing time before they ship.

Please inspect all freight shipments at delivery before signing. If you see visible damage, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before you purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Returns are governed by our store return policy. Because many products in this category involve freight shipping, special ordering, or configuration-specific selections, return eligibility may vary by product and condition. Special-order, custom-configured, used, damaged, or installed items may not be eligible for return.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

The Eterra Vortex is a skid steer stump grinder for taking hardwood and softwood stumps down below grade on land-clearing and tree-removal jobs. A high-torque radial piston motor spins an alloy steel wheel so an operator can grind a stump to chips and move to the next without a tow-behind grinder.

A direct-drive, oil-bath hub puts the motor power straight to the wheel and removes the external couplers and greasing that slow other grinders, and rock guards and wear plates spread the load across the wheel. This is built for tree-service and land-clearing crews that grind stumps regularly and need a wheel and drive that hold up to rock and grit.

Common Applications

  • Stump removal and grinding on tree-service and land-clearing jobs
  • Grinding stumps below grade to clear lots and right-of-ways
  • Following tree removal to take hardwood and softwood stumps down to chips

Selection Notes

  • Two wheel sizes: a 27-inch standard-flow wheel and a 31-inch high-flow wheel.
  • Rated for skid steers supplying 18 to 45 GPM; a case drain is required.
  • Cuts 18 to 20 inches below grade depending on the wheel.
  • Confirm hydraulic flow, case drain, and the coupler for your machine with the supplier before ordering.
