Rotary Cutter New Rotary Cutter Blades - MX6

RollTideTractor · Aug 14, 2017

Hi Everyone:

I need to purchase new blades for my MX6 Rotary Cutter - they are beat up!

On the parts diagram, there are two types - CCW Suction (W25327) and CCW Offset Suction (W48577). As best I can tell, my current blades are of the offset variety--i bought the cutter used so didnt install them.

Anyone have any experience with offset vs the non-offset? They are both suction, but is one better than the other? My use of the MX6 is limited to pastures and the occasional brush patch...

Thanks in advance for your input!

Hi Everyone -

Just a quick follow up here - I purchased the new blades (Suction CCW) and finally installed them this weekend. What a difference it has made. My old blades were pretty beat up, but I didnt expect such an improvement on the cut. If you are having issues with cut quality with your shredder/rotary cutter, I strongly suggest replacing them.

Not sure. The only option, as I found out later, was the Suction CCW. My manual had columns for both MX6 and MX7. I thought they could have been interchangeable, but they werent....I ordered the only ones for the MX6 which is the Suction CCW
