Refer to Figure 1-11:

Each tractor duplex outlet must be capable of infinite variable flow control by the operator and should have center detent “OFF” levers for controlled positioning of the parallel arm and deck cylinders. If gauge wheels are included, “ARM 2” and “DECK” levers must be capable of being placed in float position.

Breakaway Cylinder

Refer to Figure 1-12:

The breakaway cylinder protects the Rotary Cutter from damage if cutter deck or parallel arm contacts a solid object while moving forward. It does not protect cutter from damage while backing up. Always make certain the area behind the cutter is clear before backing up.

1.Connect six hoses (2 per cylinder) to 3 duplex outlets on your tractor as shown.

2.The hoses on each outlet should be connected such that when the control lever is pushed “forward”, the arm (or deck) extends. If the levers operate in reverse, change hose hook-up at the duplex receptacle.

IMPORTANT: See Figure 5-7 on page 36. A 1/2" bolt is installed for shipping purposes only. This bolt must be remove before connecting the hydraulic hoses to the tractor.

1.Locate tension bolt shown in Figure 5-7 on page 36 and remove from cutter before connecting hydraulic hoses. Do Not reinstall tension bolt while using hydraulic breakaway.

2.Attach quick disconnect adaptors (customer supplied) to each breakaway hydraulic hose.

3.Attach breakaway hoses to a single duplex outlet on the tractor as shown in Figure 1-12.

Land Pride has a longstanding reputation for producing high-quality agricultural equipment, and their line of RCP series rotary cutters, including the RCP3060, RCPM3060, RCPM2660, and RCP2660, exemplifies this commitment. Designed for professional landscapers and farmers alike, these rotary cutters are engineered for durability, efficiency, and performance in managing heavy brush and grass.

The RCP3060 is the largest in the series, boasting a 60-inch cutting width. It is equipped with a robust frame and is compatible with a range of tractors, making it an ideal choice for large-scale property maintenance and land management. The cutter employs a heavy-duty, reinforced cutting deck, which ensures longevity and able to withstand tough conditions. It utilizes a superior blade design that delivers clean and consistent cuts, promoting healthier growth of remaining grass and vegetation.

The RCPM3060, a medium-duty model, also features a 60-inch cutting width but is designed for lighter applications compared to the RCP3060. It incorporates similar build quality but is lighter, making it suitable for smaller tractors while still handling brush and grass efficiently. The integrated slip clutch protects the drive line from damage in case of blade contact with a solid object.

Both RCPM2660 and RCP2660 models provide a more compact solution with a 66-inch cutting width. The RCPM2660 is specifically tailored for medium-duty tasks, while the RCP2660 serves heavy-duty needs. Both cutters promote high productivity and versatility, making them suitable not just for agricultural use but also for commercial landscaping applications. The blades are designed for easy replacement, ensuring minimal downtime during operation.

All models in the RCP series integrate advanced technologies such as a quick-attach feature for easy connectivity, and adjustable side skids to control cutting height effectively. The heavy-gauge steel construction provides enhanced durability and helps reduce vibrations during operation. Furthermore, Land Pride's commitment to safety is reflected in the design with features that minimize dust and debris exposure.

In conclusion, whether you choose the RCP3060, RCPM3060, RCPM2660, or RCP2660, you can rely on Land Pride's RCP series rotary cutters to deliver outstanding performance and reliability, designed to withstand the demands of any landscape maintenance task.
