Rotary Cutter what brand/model rotary cutter is this?

[audiski86]

I just got this rotary cutter and was wondering if anyone is familiar with it and can name the brand and/or model. There is nothing on it that indicates to me what brand it is. I think it is a 5' model. It would be nice to know so I can get a parts diagram and what not. Thanks

I think it looks like a King Kutter.

It looks as if it's been repainted. Can you tell if there's red paint under the blue? Because it looks a lot like a Futon I bought from Rural King last year.

Note: the floating toplink bracket didn't come with it - I had it fabricated after purchase.

the futon and the king kutters look identical. I wonder if they are made the same and sold to the 2 companies or some business deal.

Almost. The KK deck ribs have more beveled ends, and the floating toplink bracket is standard. Your blue one doesn't have one, and I had to make one for mine. That's why I asked if you could tell if there was any red paint underneath the blue. My Futon also lost the blade bolt access cover the first time it was used (that circular hole in the deck is supposed to be covered by a plastic insert).

Yea it would be nice to know, but does not really matter. The gear boxes are just about all the same, just match up the size. Blades are common. TSC would probably have about everything you need other than welding.
