Is This Right For You?

Buy if

  • You maintain pastures, hayfields, road shoulders, or utility corridors with grass and light brush
  • You need a high-productivity mowing attachment that's simple to maintain and easy to source parts for
  • Your operation requires regular acreage mowing on medium to large skid steers

Skip if

  • You're cutting woody brush over 2 inches in diameter regularly — a brush cutter or mulcher is a better fit
  • Discharge direction is a concern near structures or people — a flail mower has contained discharge

Also consider

  • Brush cutter if you regularly encounter heavy overgrowth and saplings
  • Flail mower for safer, finer-cut results near roads or structures
Machine Compatibility

Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

Care & Maintenance

  • Inspect blade tips or flail hammers for wear after each use — dull cutting edges increase engine load and reduce cut quality significantly
  • Check all blade bolts for proper torque before every use — loose blades on a high-RPM rotary cutter are a serious safety hazard
  • Grease deck spindle bearings after every 8 hours of operation — spindle bearing failure is the most common and expensive rotary cutter repair
  • Check the belt drive or hydraulic motor for overheating signs (excessive heat, smell) after extended cutting sessions in dense material
  • Remove wrapped material (wire, twine, root) from around the rotor shaft after every use — wrapped material cuts through shaft seals and causes bearing contamination

How to Connect

  1. Attach rotary cutter frame using Bob-Tach
  2. Connect hydraulic couplers for motor
  3. Test blade rotation direction before cutting
  4. Keep 50m+ clear of bystanders — blade tip speed is extremely high
Safety NoteNever cut material larger than the blade rating. Rotary cutters eject debris at high velocity.
