Cutting Blades

There are four blade choices to select from based upon soil condition, density of grass, and tractor horsepower. The appearance of the finish cut may vary between low lift and high lift blades. See your Land Pride dealer for blade availability.

Medium Lift Blades

Land Pride’s medium lift blades are great when horsepower is a concern. They produces a medium suction for lifting grass requiring less horsepower than high lift blades.

High Lift Blades

Land Pride’s high lift blades develop the greatest suction for lifting grass before cutting for that fresh clean cut look. However, they may require more horsepower especially when cutting tall dense grass. They are not recommended for sandy soil conditions.

Mulching Blades

Land Pride’s mulching blades are designed to chop leaves and/or grass into smaller parts leaving your lawn looking fresher and cleaner than ever before.

Low Lift Blades

Land Pride’s low lift blades are designed for mowing over sandy soil terrain where high suction lift is not crucial. Sand sucked into the blades accelerates blade wear more than normal. Low lift blades are recommended because they produce a lower suction keeping sand uplift and blade wear to a minimum.
