Introduction

Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners.

This Cutter has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

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.
