Land Pride welcomes you to the growing familyof new
product owners.
This Disc Mowerhas 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 Disc Mowers are designed and builtto cut
hay,grass, and other cultivated forage crops on farms,
ranches, set-aside acres, and vast right-of-ways. They
are adapted for 540 rpm three-point hitch Category 2
offset mounting and are Quick-Hitch adaptable. Theyare
compatible with 35 hp to 45 hp tractors equipped with live
or independent PTO’s.The DM3506 has 6 discs and a 96"
cutting width and the DM3507 has 7 discs a 112" cutting
width.
Land Pride Disc Mowers will typically cut faster than
traditional sickle bar mowers and are designed to deliver
good cutting performance even in thick,tangled, and wet
grass conditions. Fire Ant hills and Gopher mounds, that
may tend to clog traditional Sickle-bar designs,will have
farless impact on our Rotar y Cutter Bar design. Standard
replaceable rock guards provide cutter bar protection in
stony conditions and will greatly extend cutter bar life.A
standard break-awaylatch will release, allowing the cutter
bar to swing back, if an obstacle is hit.
Land Pride Disc Mowers are well suited for use in
agricultural regions where humidity and moisture
conditions are typically higher and the potential for crop
entanglement and tough ground conditions are present.
See “Features and Benefits”, “Section 5” for additional
information.
