Land Pride 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 product.
Application
The standard utility duty RCR2596, RCR2510, and
RCRM2510 Series Rotary Cutters are designed and built
by Land Pride to provide excellent cutting performance on
gently sloping or slightly contoured right-of-ways,
pastures, set-aside-acres, and row crop fields. Their
eight and ten foot cutting widths, 2" to 12" cutting height
and ability to cut weeds and brush up to 1 1/2" diameter
make them well suited for these applications.
The RCR2596 and RCR2510 cutters operate at a power
take-off speed of 540 rpm and the RCRM2510 cutter
operates at 1000 rpm. A category four equal angle
driveline is available on all three models and a category
four constant velocity driveline is available on only the
RCR2510 & RCRM2510 models.
Pull-type and three-point type hitches are available. The
RCR2596 is designed for a category I or II three-point
hitch and the RCR2510 and RCRM2510 are designed for
a category II or III three-point hitch. All three-point
hitches are Quick-Hitch adaptable. The RCR2596 three-
point hitch requires a 50-110 hp tractor and the Pull-type
hitch requires a 40-110 hp tractor. The RCR2510 and
RCRM2510 three-point hitch requires a 60-110 hp tractor
and 50-110 hp for Pull-type.
Stump jumpers, main driveline slip-clutches, and
outboard flex couplers are also offered for driveline and
gearbox protection. Safety shields around the cutter are
offered in either chain or rubber.
