rotary cutter

Does anyone have a clue as to what brand this gearbox may be or what I need to know to replace and or repair it? My best guess is that it is the same make and model year as the tractor, Case 1987 but I can not find any markings on it anywhere other than what appears to be a 23 on the side of the...

I have a woods RC6 rotary cutter which I am in the process of servicing. I removed the plug located on the rear bottom of the gearbox and drained the oil. I then removed the top vent to fill it back up . At this point I checked the owners manual to find out how much oil to put in. It said to...

Good afternoon all! I have a 2021 Bad Boy 5' rotary cutter (Model BBRCSC60), bought it new for ~$1800 and looking to sell. It is in great shape and I just cut hunting lanes this past weekend! Any idea on a reasonable asking price for it?

I was using a big C-clamp and 1x4 board to hold the blades while sharpening with an angle grinder. They would slip, skid off, not stay tight... and cause lots of cussing in general. 🤬 So... I made a stand that adjusts to any height to sharpen the blades of any batwing cutter with the wings in...

Are there? Or if you have 5 ft, do you think it can handle 6 footer?

i was just wondering if there is a different hub that I can use on a frontier RC2072 rotary cutter other than frontier or if they make a universal one

This is my father in law's. I have been trying to keep up his place and it's gotten to the point that it's really difficult to use it like this. How would I go about finding parts for it. The biggest need is the whole tail wheel/yoke assembly.

Hello everyone... new tractor owner here (well, had it now about six months). I have a 2023 Mahindra 5155 (55 hp) tractor, and I am shopping for a good rotary cutter to maintain parts of my property that my Gravely ZT HD can't do. Not a need for a "commercial" cutter, but I subscribe to the...

I have a tire driven Sidewinder three point hitch rotary cutter. There is no front guard on it and it throws debris on the back of my tractor, up on top of the deck, and me when mowing grass. I want to put a guard on it but am conflicted about how close to the bottom of the cutter to go. I'm...

Looking at purchasing a 5 foot bush hog for my L2502 and I'm wondering should I buy a rear or front discharge. Could anybody shed some light on the pros and cons of a rear discharge vs front discharge?

I think this came with a used Behlen rotary cutter I bought. Any idea what's it for, and how to use/attach it? Thanks

Delivered this morning. Should reduce mowing time in half. Only problem is that it's too dry here to mow.

Hi, I got the nuts off the blade bolts on my 6' Brush Hog with an air impact gun but could not get the bolts out of the blade carrier. I had a lot of penetrant, an engineers hammer and a length of pipe, and also tried an air hammer. I'm hoping to have another go at it with a propane torch (all...

I have a Kubota L3560 and a Land Pride RFC2072 rotary cutter. Last year I had it mounted directly to my three-point hitch but this year I'm attempting to use the quick hitch that came with my Big Tool Rack. The default pins on the cutter are (I believe) Category 1. I've added some shims /...

I am in the market for a rotary cutter and would appreciate some advice. I am looking for something at least medium duty, most of my cutting will be grass and brush but I do hit the occasional stump, rock or log. And some of the ground is uneven. I have 5 acres total, about half open field...

I've got a Woods 15' Batwing cutter that has served me well for a bit over 9 years now. But It's showing some deck rust. I blow the deck off daily when using the cutter, but the corrosive nature of plant fluids makes it's way through anything after awhile, and factory paint or powder coat on...

Been looking for months; lots of expensive scrap, lots of expensive new ones. Five foot models are plentiful! Happened to call the local New Holland shop and they had just gotten in a BB48X on consignment @ $1200. Woods and Bush Hog were my picks - so I bought it. One owner, light use, great...

I just bought this rotary cutter (cheap) and I need some help identifying it. The seller didn't know the brand. He said the gearbox leaks, so I will probably need some parts... It's a 5 footer, kinda red(ish), has a big/heavy round disk that the blades attach to (not a real "stump jumper")...

Has anyone replaced a 1:1.47 ratio brush hog gearbox with a higher ratio 1:1.93 or 1:2.83 ratio. Would this setup help the brush hog to operate under reduced acceleration contributing to fuel economy and more efficiency? Would the 1:2.83 ratio gearbox perform well using the ground speed PTO? The...

Seems all the 8' ones ive seen are Cat 2 and since my tractor is cat 1...so not a match. Are there any good medium duty 8' 3pt shredders? Will i need to start looking at a pull behind for an 8'? I have a good heavy duty 6', but was hoping to find an 8' to save some time. I dont know that its...

I have an older Hardee 5’ Rotary cutter I’m trying to bring back to life. The stump jumper is cracked and the blades are rusted/frozen to it. I want to replace both the stump jumper and blades. I cant seem to find the stump Jumper (part C805) any where (have contacted Hardee and waiting on...

I just bought an older ford rotary cutter. It is missing the top half of the gearbox and the pto shaft(I bought the thing for $60). The best I can tell the model number on the tag of the whole thing is 22-151. I’m having trouble finding the correct gearbox for it. The output shaft is 10 spline...

I have been looking for a high quality 12' batwing cutter for a long time now... 😣 They make great 15 foot cutters, but when you want a 12' for tighter areas and less horsepower, the lineup of what's out there is just disgusting. Currently I have a Modern Ag 12' Viper. I have a love/hate...

Does anybody have any experience with brush hogging on their Montanas? I hadn't gone through a single shear bolt on mine since I bought it, and once I did it was a nightmare. I bought a pack of grade 2 bolts from Menards, but sheared every single one of them on startup, never even got to mow...

I picked up a tractor recently that came with a Hi-Co rotary mower. The PTO and shaft spin at full speed, but the blades don't move at all. They will turn if I reach underneath and push them by hand. This is the first rotary mower I have owned so I know virtually nothing about them. Should I...

I purchased a used Rhino 10' brush hog last fall to use this year. I have broken the output shaft clean in to. There appears to be no rust on the shaft where it broke, but there are no stumps, just old rotten oak limbs out in the horse pasture. This is the second shaft I broke in two weeks...

Ok gents…here goes. I have a 2022 Woods 84” Rear Discharge Mower TKP84.40 (TurfKeeper Pro), and despite my trying the gearbox keeps getting water in it. I know it’s water because the gearbox oil is milky. It was recently replaced, as was the o-ring for the vented dipstick. I first noticed the...

We are purchasing a new Kubota MX6000 (replacing our L4701 that was lost in a fire). Wanted to get feedback on the available front mounted off set mowers. We have a pond, lake and lots of overgrown pastures and are looking for something to help clear them and then maintain. We had the small...

I have a 6" rotary cutter I have used for years to clear some old pasture. Like many of us I have hit a few rocks and some branches along the way. All of that being said the "sharp side" of the blades now have a bullnose profile. I have never sharpened the blades. I went by a local shop and...

My current 6 foot RC is nowhere near enough for the tractor I'm pulling it with. Money is a little tight, but I found a 8 foot RC for CHEAP.. catch is that the internals to the T-Box (center gearbox) are completely gone - center gear box housing is there to compare a new one to, but nothing...

The clutch housing on the John Deere K0307 Rotary mower broke in several parts. Friend hit something, but knew not what, if you know what I mean. Anyway, I'm looking for a slip clutch housing, or a slip clutch that fits the rotary mower. I have been searching all over the internet, but not...

I'm still relatively new to tractors and implements, and my dealer is closed till Monday so I figured hey, I'd ask here in case this is a serious thing. The dealer got my RC1060 in Wednesday, delivered it yesterday. I ran it for ~30 minutes yesterday, then an hour today. When I got it out...

I've had this cutter for a few years, got it from an auction. It's about the heaviest rotary cutter I've come across. Has a number (serial I'm guessing) welded into it 28492. Just trying to see what it is. Thanks for the help.

So, one of the tasks I will have with my new piece of land is maintaining utility easements. Technically, I could wait for the utility companies to cut them, but I live there, they don't. 2/3 of my easements are buried gas lines, so they only come out if there is a big problem...almost never...
