Increased Durability

RS72 Rotary Cutter chopping tree debris

The rotary brush cutter uses a durable direct-drive system with a steel frame for heavy-duty cutting, and its self-cleaning design ensures easy maintenance and debris-free operation.

Self-Cleaning Cut

The rotary cutter features four reversible, alternating bevel blades made of high-grade steel for a deep, self-cleaning cut and extended wear life, supported by a heavy flywheel-like carrier that maintains cutting inertia and allows optional stump-grinding teeth.
