Application
The heavy duty RC5010, RCM5010, RC6010 and
RCM6010 Series Rotary Cutters are designed and built
by Land Pride to provide excellent cutting performance
on gently sloping or slightly contoured right of ways,
roadsides, pastures, set-aside-acres, or for residue in
row crop fields. The 10 ft. cutting width, 2" to 14" cutting
height and ability to cut weeds and brush make them well
suited for these applications. All listed models offer
pull-type self-leveling clevis hitches for attachment to
50-250 hp tractors. Both 50 & 60 series feature a Cat. 5
main driveline. Both models offer various safety guard
selections making them an excellent choice for state and
municipal mowing applications.
See “Section 6: Specifications & Capacities” on page
38 and “Section 7: Features and Benefits” on page 39
for additional information and performance enhancing
options.
