Introduction
Kubota welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners. This Rotary Cutter has been designed
with care and built by skilled workers using quality
materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe
operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory
use from this attachment.
Application
The SC2560 and SC2572 Series Skid Steer Rotary
Cutters are built and designed by Kubota for cutting on
gently sloping or slightly contoured right-of-ways,
pastures, set aside acres, and row crop fields. These skid
steer mounted cutters provide unparalleled access to
tightly restricted areas such as under fences, in and
around boxed in corner sections of corrals and out
buildings, vineyard, nursery rows, wooded lots, and
approaches to ditches and waterways. The 60" or 72"
cutting width, 8"offset capability to the right, 2" cutting
capacity, 1.5" to 18" cutting height range, and the
universal skid steer floating-hitch mounting plate make
the SC2560 and SC2572 highly versatile and easy to
use. The SC2560 and SC2572 are compatible with and
designed for attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to
3500 psi operating pressure and flow rates in the 11-17
gpm, 18-23 gpm, or 24-30 gpm ranges.
The SC2560 and SC2572 are equipped with two 1/2" x
4"updraft blades and a heavy duty round pan stump
jumper. A deflector chute is located to the left rear side of
the cutter to prevent clogging in heavy cutting conditions.
The SC2560 and SC2572 come standard with a front
mounted single row chain guard, a rear mounted double
row chain guard, and a safety chain to restrict deck lift
height. Four corner-mounted skid shoes are provided to
reduce wear and to keep the cutter from bottoming out. A
Lexan protective cab door is available as optional
equipment or owner/operators may choose to use a
protective door provided or made available by their skid
steer supplier/manufacturer.
A pivoting and adjustable front mounted gauge wheel
with a single laminated tire is available to make mowing
even easier by pre-setting the mowing height and
allowing the cutter to float over uneven terrain. Hydraulic
hoses and a case-drain line are provided as standard
equipment but compatible couplers for attachment to the
individual skid steers auxiliary hydraulic outlets will need
to be provided by dealers or customers.
The addition of a Kubota SC2560 or SC2572 Skid Steer
Rotary Cutter to your arsenal of skid steer attachments
will dramatically increase the versatility and value of your
personal skid steer investment.
