Blue Diamond Attachments has announced the launch of a new line of standard and medium-duty 3-point rotary cutters. The new tractor attachment offering extends the company’s full-line of cutters and allows for cutting of overgrown grass, stalks and light brush up to 1-in. thick.
Design and Operation
Features of the new line of Blue Diamond Attachments cutters include:
- 12-gauge steel for the 4- to 6-ft. standard-duty models and 10-gauge steel deck construction on the 7-ft. medium-duty model; the new rotary cutters also have heavy-duty steel bracing for extra strength
- A balanced stump-jumper blade pan that protects cutter blades from rocks, stumps and roots
- The heavy duty heat-treated free-swinging blades with suction lift are ½-in. thick by 3-in. wide on the standard-duty and ½-in. thick by 4-in. wide on the medium-duty
- A tapered round back design allows tight turns for maneuvering around trees or in tight spaces
- On the 4- to 6-ft. standard-duty models, a shear bolt through the input shaft protects the gearbox and driveline from damage and the 7-ft. medium-duty model is protected by a slip clutch
- Rear wheel adjustment to set the height of the cutter, from 1.5 to 11 in. depending on the model
- 15-in. laminated wheel design for tough terrain
- A 3-point quick hitch-compatible hitch for attaching the rear-mounted rotary cutter to a compact tractor
- Gearboxes made with cast iron housings and forged steel gears come standard on all models and are rated for 45 hp on the 4- to 6-ft. standard-duty models and 65 hp on the 7-ft. medium-duty model
