Application
The Land Pride RCS(M)3596 and RCS(M)3510 Series
Side Shift Rotary Cutters are designed and built to clear
grass, weeds, and light brush up to two inches in
diameter from areas under orchard and grove trees,
beneath over-hanging hedge rows, or under fence lines
and guard railings. Both units have 14" side shift
capability to either side of the tractor with rear mounted
360 degree rotating tailwheels. These cutters are also
well suited for operation on gentle slopes and mildly
contoured approaches immediately adjacent to ponds,
lakes, streams, drainage ditches, and roadways. The
eight or ten foot cutting width and 2" to 12" cutting height
make them well suited for mowing pastures, set aside
acres, and row crop fields.
The RCS3596 is adapted for Category 1 or 2 semi-hitch
mounting and 50 to 120 horsepower tractors. The Model
RCS3510 is approved for Category 2 or 3 semi-hitch
attachment and 60-120 horsepower tractors. Due to the
offset nature of the hitch, this cutter utilizes a
“semi-mount” hitch configuration. The top link will not be
used and the tailwheels will always be in contact with the
ground. Both models are available with either 540 rpm or
1000 rpm PTO capability and offer standard driveline
clutch protection. A stump jumper is standard equipment
and safety guards are available. See “Features and
Benefits”, “Section 5” for additional information.
