Application

The SC2660 and SC2672 Series Skid Steer Rotary Cutters are built and designed by Land Pride for cutting on gently sloping or slightly contoured right-of-ways, pastures, set aside acres, and row crop fields. These skid steer mounted cutters provide unparalleled access to tightly restricted areas such as under fences, in and around boxed in corner sections of corrals and out buildings, vineyard and nursery rows, wooded lots, and approaches to ditches and waterways. The 60" or 72" cutting width, 8"offset capability to the right, 2" cutting capacity, 1.5" to 18" cutting height range, and the universal skid steer floating-hitch mounting plate make the SC2660 and SC2672 highly versatile and easy to use. The SC2660 is compatible with and designed for attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi operating pressure and flow rates in the 11-15 gpm, 15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges. The SC2672 is compatible with and designed for attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi operating pressure and flow rates in the 15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges.

The SC2660 and SC2672 provide very high and clean cutting blade tip speeds but owner/operators will need to select the motor that is appropriately matched to their skid steers hydraulic flow and pressure capabilities. Our low volume motor, which is available on the SC2660 only, produces a blade tip speed of 18,540 fpm at

15 gpm. Medium volume and high volume motors are available for both models. On the SC2660, our medium volume motor produces 18,850 fpm at 21 gpm, and our high volume motor produces 19,000 fpm at 27 gpm. On the SC2672, our medium volume motor produces 17,200 fpm at 21 gpm, and our high volume motor produces 18,550 fpm at 27 gpm. Each unit is equipped with two 1/2" x 4"updraft blades and a heavy duty round pan stump jumper. A deflector chute is located to the left rear side of the cutter to prevent clogging in heavy cutting conditions.

The SC2660 and SC2672 come standard with a front mounted single row chain guard, a rear mounted double row chain guard, and a safety chain to restrict deck lift height. Four corner-mounted skid shoes are provided to reduce wear and to keep the cutter from bottoming out. A Lexan protective cab door is available as optional equipment or owner/operators may choose to use a protective door provided or made available by their skid steer supplier/manufacturer.

A pivoting and adjustable front mounted gauge wheel with a single laminated tire is available to make mowing even easier by pre-setting the mowing height and allowing the cutter to float over uneven terrain. Hydraulic hoses and a case-drain line are provided as standard equipment but compatible couplers for attachment to the individual skid steers auxiliary hydraulic outlets will need to be provided by dealers or customers.

The addition of a Land Pride SC2660 or SC2672 Skid Steer Rotary Cutter to your arsenal of skid steer attachments will dramatically increase the versatility and value of your personal skid steer investment.

SC2672, SC2660 specifications

The Land Pride SC2660 and SC2672 are exceptional tillers designed to enhance agricultural productivity through their advanced features and technologies. These models are tailored for small to medium-sized tractors, making them versatile choices for hobby farmers and professionals alike.

One of the standout characteristics of the SC2660 and SC2672 is their robust construction. Built with high-quality materials, these tillers ensure durability and longevity, allowing them to withstand the rigors of demanding soil conditions. The two models differ primarily in width, with the SC2660 featuring a 60-inch working width, while the SC2672 offers a slightly wider 72-inch option, catering to various land preparation needs.

Both tillers are equipped with heavy-duty tines made from hardened steel, providing excellent soil penetration and thorough tilling action. The tines are designed to break up compacted soil effectively, promoting better aeration and root growth for crops. The adjustable tilling depth feature allows operators to customize the tilling process to meet specific agricultural requirements, ensuring optimal soil health and structure.

The SC2660 and SC2672 incorporate a chain drive system that delivers reliable power from the tractor to the tiller. This efficient drive mechanism reduces wear and enhances the tillers' overall performance, ensuring a smooth operation even under challenging conditions. The adjustable side skids provide further flexibility, allowing users to control the width of the tilling area, which is particularly beneficial for row cropping applications.

Another important aspect of these tillers is their ease of use. The quick-hitch compatibility allows for fast attachment and detachment, saving valuable time in the field. Additionally, the low maintenance requirements and straightforward design mean that operators can focus more on tilling and less on equipment upkeep.

In summary, the Land Pride SC2660 and SC2672 tillers offer a blend of strength, efficiency, and ease of use. Their durable build, adjustable features, and reliable performance make them an indispensable tool for any agricultural operation. Whether you're preparing your garden or cultivating larger fields, these tillers provide the versatility and reliability needed to achieve outstanding results.
