  • Key features – RC40 Series
  • With the RC40 series Rotary Cutters, high take-rate options are now included in base equipment. This will reduce ordering complexity and still including highly ordered features, such as the Front and Rear Chain Shields and PTO Slip Clutch without the ordering complexity.
  • Easy-to-maneuver deck
  • The round-back deck design on the RC40 Series Rotary Cutter enables easy maneuvering into tight corners and around trees, fences, and other hard-to-reach areas.
  • Front and rear chain shields in base
  • The front and rear deck deflector are made of chain for longer life.
  • Power take-off (PTO) slip clutch and drive shaft storage in base
  • PTO clutches protect the gear box component against damage when blade rotation has stopped.
  • The drive holder that is incorporated into the frame, allows the PTO drive shaft to rest on the frame and not on the shop floor or ground. Providing more comfort and avoiding contamination from dirty floor and ground surfaces.
  • Durability and reliability
  • The RC40 Series cutters also comes with a three year limited gear box warranty, giving customers peace of mind regarding the heart of their rotary cutter.
