Rotary Cutter Buying Guide
Rotary cutters are implements designed to cut through tall weeds and tough brush. They offer the sharp cutting power needed to tackle these difficult projects. Farmers can use them to clean up around crops before harvesting. Cattle owners can use them to clip pastures to decrease the number of insects and to make foraging easier for livestock. There are many uses for rotary cutters, but not all models will suit all needs.
We've created the following buyer's guide to help you find the perfect model for your needs. When you are ready to shop rotary cutters for sale, head over to Atlantic Tractor. We have dealerships throughout Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware.
1. What Size Do You Want?
Start your search by thinking about the ideal size of your rotary cutter. Common sizes are 12, 15, and 20 feet wide. It's also important to account for your tractor's capabilities. Make sure your tractor can offer the horsepower, balance, and ballast needed. For example, a 12-foot rotary cutter tends to work best with tractors ranging from 50-80 horsepower. A 15-foot rotary cutter usually works best with tractors that offer 75 horsepower or more. The 20-foot rotary cutters tend to be used by road maintenance crews and need a high amount of horsepower.
2. What is Your Terrain Like?
Take into account any obstacles that your terrain poses since that will affect the type of rotary cutter you need. If your land has obstructions, waterways, or ditches, you will want a heavy-duty rotary cutter.
You will also want to consider the types of materials you will be cutting. For example, if you are working on Conservation Reserve Program land or handling corn stalks or wheat stubble, you will need a tougher model. If you are cutting pastures or brush on unobstructed land, you can get a lighter model.
3. What Features Do You Need?
Rotary cutters can offer a wide range of features to suit different needs. Think about which ones you need and which ones you can pass on. One commonly sought after feature is a stump jumper pan that holds the blades. This pan skims over the stump and helps prevent damage to the cutter. If you need to handle more cut material and drive through deep grass with less horsepower, then you will want deep deck chambers and tall side frames. Also consider seeking out a rotary cutter that has its gearbox serviceable and oil is easy to change, which will help make maintenance much easier.
