The rotary cutter is a power take-off (PTO)–driven tractor implement, eliminating the need for a separate engine or motor. Power is transferred directly from the compact tractor’s engine through the PTO. Simply attach the cutter to the 3-point hitch and engage the PTO shaft to begin operation. When using this implement, it is important to understand whether your tractor is equipped with an independent PTO or live PTO—always review the owner’s manual before use.Built for dependable cutting performance, the rotary cutter easily handles overgrown grass, stalks, and light brush. Free-swinging blades help reduce impact shock when contacting stationary objects, protecting both the implement and the tractor. A durable 12-gauge steel deck features a stump-jumper blade pan with 3-inch heat-treated forged blades for added strength. The tapered, round-back design allows for tighter turns and improved maneuverability in challenging areas.
