250 hp (168.4 kw) divider gearbox
225 hp (167.8 kw) spindle gearboxes
Rugged heavy built gearboxes capable of handling heavy cutting applications.
Gearbox seal protection
Gearbox bottom seal protection for longer bearing life.
Input driveline:
Cat. 6 CV
Holds up to shock loads and harsh mowing conditions.
Fits wide range of tractors including high horsepower tractors.
Star profile drivelines
Star profile spreads load out to many points on the shaft. More apt to resist bending
and twisting under shock loads and harsh mowing conditions.
Easy greasable drivelines
Drivelines have access holes for greasing the U-joints and to grease inner profiles.
4 Plate slip-clutch
Protects drivelines and gearboxes by slipping clutches rather than twisting the
driveline when impacts are encountered.
High blade tip speed
540 rpm: Center: 17,377 fpm (88.3 mps), Wings: 17,329 fpm (88 mps)
1000 rpm: Center: 18,165 fpm (92.3 mps), Wings: 18,317 fpm (93.1 mps)
Allows for a clean cut of material and even distribution.
6" (15.2 cm) Blade overlap
Generous blade overlap eliminates skipping, especially in turns.
High cutting capacity
Can cut brushy areas with saplings up to 3" (7.6 cm).
Left wing rotates counterclockwise
Better discharge of material. Picks up tractor tracks.
10 1/2" (26.7 cm) Deck height
Handles heavy cutting, which reduces balling-up of cut material under the deck.
3/16" (5 mm) stump jumper (optional)
backed with a 1" (2.5 cm) thick
mounting bar
Heavy round stump jumper with bottom gearbox seal protector. Can hold up to tough
conditions.
10 gauge (3.4 mm) double deck
Heavy enough to handle conditions but not weigh unit down.
Self-leveling pull-type hitch (optional)
Reduces drawbar wear by keeping hitch level while going through ditches.
LED Signal lights
LED lights are bright, long lasting, and resistant to vibration, unlike incandescent
counterparts.
Hinged wing sections
Allow
cutter
to follow terrain. Ideal for rough ground where hillsides, ditches, and
hollows can cause uneven cutting.
1" (2.5 cm) Solid hinge rods
Larger diameter hinge rod gives greater strength to the
cutter
from front to rear, and
in the hinge area itself.
Wing transport locks
Safety feature. Holds wing sections up in case of hydraulic pressure loss.
1" (2.5 cm) Enclosed front to rear dual
leveling rods
Dual leveling rods enable the
cutter
to pull equally on the rear axle during travel over
rough terrain. Many competitors only use one leveling rod.
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.
5" (12.7 cm) Square rear axle tubing
Heavy axle to handle harsh conditions.
Spring-cushioned center-axle
Protects unit from bumps and ground shock.
Replaceable wheel spindles
Wheel spindles can be replaced when damaged without replacing the entire axle.
Simply remove two bolts to replace damaged spindle.
Bar-tite hitch (optional)
Ideal for extreme conditions. Clamps tight to drawbar eliminating drawbar wear.
Wheel options
Laminated tires:
Eliminates flats.
Airplane tires without foam filling:
Better cushion while transporting.
Airplane tires with foam filling:
Better cushion while transporting and can’t go flat.
Deck rings (optional)
1/2" (13 mm) x 3" (7.6 mm) Welded deck ring keeps blades from damaging the deck.
Shredder blades (optional)
Ideal for cutting residue into smaller pieces.
Replaces blade and stump jumper configuration.
Baffles (accessory)
Maintains shredded material in each section of the cutter for a consistent discharge
from the rear of each deck.
