Safety and Reliability When You Need It
Safety Breakaway System
Upon encountering an obstacle, the breakaway releases and the mower unit pivots back to protect the mower. The breakaway is easily reset by reversing the tractor and returning the mower to the working position.
Flotation Spring
A flotation spring reduces the weight of the mower unit on the ground to improve mower floatation and terrain following.

Rope-Controlled Pin
A simple rope-controlled pin is used to lock the mower in the rearward transport position. The mower head is swung by hand from the transport position to the side working position or back to the transport pRosition. A hydraulic vertical fold option is also available.
