Stump Grinder Training. Stump grinders remove tree stumps, quite literally, by chipping away at them – usually with a cutting wheel. As a result, they can be dangerous tools if used incorrectly or without adequate training. The H&W stump grinder training course will teach you the appropriate techniques and safety guidelines.
