The simplistic, time-tested design of the Switch Blade® offers its users a fast, efficient, cost-effective method of vegetation maintenance. Designed for tractors with smaller horsepower engines, it is both safe and reliable. Users can depend on the Switch Blade for high production due to faster cutting as well as less maintenance than any other industrial mower on the market today.

The Switch Blade cutter bar features a breakaway system allowing the unit to hinge when obstructed. Also fea- tured is a planetary drive system which allows for smoother operation and cleaner cutting. An efficient motor, decreased in size and weight, helps to increase speed control.

With a two-section front pump, the updated hydraulic system allows the unit to run cooler by eliminating heat, thus running more efficiently. This translates into more cutting power and less machine maintenance. The Switch Blade's proven blade design allows for precision cutting. Built-in rock guards help to minimize blade damage.
