More torque with the Vermeer SC402 stump cutter

Efficient Operation

The SC402 is equipped with a 40-hp (29.8-kW) Briggs & Stratton® Vanguard® engine with high torque output to help operators grind more stumps in less time and tackle more jobs each day.

With standard four-wheel drive, the SC402 was built to help prevent ground disturbance and minimize slipping – getting operators to the stump and back efficiently.

The SmartSweep™ control system monitors engine load while providing continuous feedback, resulting in a smooth and consistent cutter wheel sweep rate that helps improve efficiency and minimizes wear.

Jobsite Flexibility

With options of either the Vermeer cutting system (VCS) or Yellow Jacket™ cutter system, operators can select the cutter wheel that is best suited to their operation and ground conditions.

Without the dual wheels installed, the SC402 is only 35.5 in (90.2 cm) wide, allowing it to enter narrow backyard gates and access tight jobsites.

An optional backfill blade helps reduce the time and labor needed for chip clean up.

Ease of Maintenance

Designed for ease of maintenance, the SC402 is all about access and
convenience – helping you spend less time in the shop and more time in the field grinding.

Operator Safety

The SC402 features the safety innovations you’ve come to expect from Vermeer – like the capacitive-sensing operator presence system that disengages the wheel when your hands leave the controls.

Optional Remote Control

The SC402 is remote-ready – putting control back in your hands. This provides operators with the flexibility to manoeuvre the machine and grind stumps comfortably on diverse jobsites.
