Features
Features | Benefits |
Surpassed rugged industry standards | All Land Pride Rotary Cutters have been designed and tested and meet rigorous voluntary testing procedures according to ISO 4254-13. |
Factory assembled | Arrives for quick and easy set-up. Minimal time wasted setting or prepping the unit. |
Seven Year gearbox warranty | Shows confidence in gearbox integrity. |
Rugged heavy built gearboxes | Capable of handling heavy cutting applications. |
Gearbox seal protection | Gearbox bottom seal protection for longer bearing life. |
Sliding guard for splitter gearbox | Sliding guard offers protection and easy access for improved efficiency of splitter gearbox maintenance. |
Detachable shields on the wing gearboxes | Provides easy maintenance access to the driveline slip clutches and yokes. |
Two piece driveline shields | Driveline grease zerks are easier to access. |
Low hitch weight on tractor drawbar | Ideal for smaller hp tractors by reducing the amount of weight on the drawbar. |
Narrow A-frame tongue | Allows for a tighter turning radius. |
Adjustable park jack angle | Park jack can be adjusted to be perpendicular to the ground. |
Adjustable driveline support | Serves as support rest for the driveline when the cutter is unhooked from the tractor. Assist operator when attaching driveline to the tractor power take-off shaft. |
Input driveline: Cat. 6 CV | Driveline is matched just right for tractor capacity. Constant velocity (CV) U-joint allows for 80 degree turns without doing damage to the driveline. |
Drivelines with slip-clutches: Cat. 5 intermediate Cat. 4 or Cat. 5 wings | Driveline is sized right for the intended cutting capacity. Slip-clutches will slip under load to minimize twist damage to driveline profiles |
Grease zerks on end caps of driveline | Intermediate and wing driveline cross journals are easier to grease. |
High blade tip speed | Allows clean cutting of material. |
6" Blade overlap | Eliminates skipping during turns. |
Forged blade bar (Optional) | Provides the critical strength needed for consistent, top performance. |
3/16" Round stump jumper (Optional) | Standard thick stump jumper material keeps damage to a minimum. |
Smooth top design | Reduces accumulation of debris and is easier and faster to clean. |
Tops of decks are 100% welded | Makes center and wing decks stronger. |
Deck ArmorTM (Optional) | Reduces deck damage from blade to deck contact without affecting cut quality. |
Replaceable 1/4" side skirt thickness | Increased thickness reduces damage from objects thrown into the side skirts. |
Multiple center skid shoe locations | Run two skid shoes under the hitch pivots or two skid shoes under the wing hinges. |
Beveled skid shoes on wings | Reduces gouging the ground when turning. |
LED signal lights | LED lights are bright, long lasting, and resist vibration, unlike incandescent lights. |
Wire harness 7-pin plug holder | Spring hose loop mounted holder keeps wire harness plug out of the dirt and rain. |
Hinged wing sections | Allows cutter to follow terrain. Ideal for rough ground where hillsides, ditches, and hollows can cause uneven cutting. |
1" Solid hinge rods | Larger diameter hinge rod provides greater strength in the hinge area. |
Wing transport lock pins | Transport lock pins hold the wings in the folded position in the event of hydraulic loss. |
Enclosed dual 1" leveling rods | Cutter pulls equally on the rear axle while traveling over rough terrain. |
Five-bolt hubs with larger bearings, five lip hub seals, and bolted-on hub caps | Makes the wheel assembly more durable and longer lasting. Five hub seals make it harder for water & debris to enter the hub and grease to leave the hub. Hub caps cannot be knocked off by foreign material. |
Drain holes in wheel rims | Allows water to drain from wheels mounted on the folded-up wings. Helps prevent paint deterioration and rusting to the wheel rims. |
Replaceable individual wheel spindles | Spindles can be replaced when damaged without replacing entire axle assembly. |
