With Variable Forward Reach capabilities, the operator can now maneuver the mower head from behind the tractor wheel to alongside the cab for improved visibility, functionality and efficiency. For use with tractors equipped with cabs, weighing a minimum of 9,920 lb. and 80 HP.
Four cutter head options are available for the Forward Reach RMB mowers. Three flail head options with a 1”- 1-1/2” cutting capacity. Each come standard with adjustable front guard and flap kits to protect from thrown objects, as well as a built-in wire trap feature to help keep loose wires from becoming entangled in the rotor. The optional rotary cutter head unit offers powerful 4” cutting capacity in a 47” working width.
