2025 Vermeer® Stump Cutters SC552

SC552 highlights
  • Impressive cutting dimensions
  • Powerful performance at the stump
  • Standard features for the stump grinding professional

Features may include:

Powerful performance
  • The 56-hp (41.2-kW) Rehlko diesel engine is the next step up in performance and power delivery at the stump.
  • The SC552 is able to traverse in difficult terrain thanks to the differential locks that maintain pulling power during an uneven wheel traction path.
  • The SmartSweep™ control system helps improve efficiency and productivity at the stump while helping to minimize wear and tear on the machine.
  • A standard backfill blade minimizes the need for manual cleanup on the job.
Jobsite flexibility
  • On graded terrain, the SC552’s footprint maximizes stability and provides a consistent cutting experience.
  • Without the dual wheels installed, the SC552 is only 35 in (89 cm) wide, allowing it to enter narrow backyard gates and access tight jobsites.
  • Options for both the Vermeer cutting system (VCS) or Yellow Jacket™ cutter system give you the choice to select the wheel that is right for your operation and ground conditions.
Proactive maintenance and support options
  • Reduce maintenance time through features like hinged doors and removable panels that give you easy access to service pumps.
  • Add the Confidence Plus® asset protection program with your initial purchase or within the standard 1-year warranty period. Financing maintenance expenses allows you to plan for fixed costs upfront.
Operator safety
  • The operator presence system allows the cutter wheel to automatically stop when the operator releases the hydraulic cutter wheel controls.
  • The swing out control station helps protect the operator from thrown objects while providing optimal visibility at the stump.
