The cutter head design is of a ‘double skin’ construction for greater strength and longer
life. The drive is by means of ‘vee’ belts from the hydraulic motor to the rotor, with the
drive completely contained within the width of head for a cleaner cut.
Twin ‘vee’ belts take the drive from the motor to the rotor - giving a reliable drive with the
added benefit of anti-shock protection that a belt drive system provides.
A ‘swing link breakback’ system is built into the machine; this offers a degree of
protection to machine components if an obstruction is encountered during normal work.
Two parking stand legs are fitted to the machine, which once the machine has been
attached to the tractor should be folded away in the ‘stow’ position.
The machine has ‘angle head flotation’ as standard –this is engaged by moving the head
rotation lever beyond the normal actuation range into a detented ‘float’ position. ‘Lift
float’ is available as an option on the machine.
All machines have a relief valve in the primary ram system, this limits the pressure which
can be generated in the drop side of the cylinder – the cutting head cannot therefore be
‘driven’ into the ground in any circumstances.
