grassy areas where a highly professional cut is required without wasting time.
This mower is perfect for the maintenance of parks, private lawns, industrial parks,

C50 series, for tractors up to 50 HP, come in working widths of 120, 150, 180 and 210

. On your mower, the tractor PTO trans-
mits its power through a driveline to a speed multiplier gearbox. A pulley is attached to
the pinion gear shaft of the gearbox which, via high resistance belts, transmits power to
pulleys coupled to the three individual spindle shafts. Blades are secured to these
shafts which turn at a high blade tip speed to cut the grass.
Our C50 grooming mower comes equipped with 4 swivel wheels. Aside from regulating
the cutting height, the wheels are set in such a way as to allow the mower to follow the
contour of the terrain and give a precise, level cut even in undulating conditions.
