John Deere Double-Deckerâ„¢ design for superior frame strength
The Double-Deck design also provides a sturdy base to support the gearcases. Gearcases need this sturdy base to resist the bending loads imposed upon them when blades contact immovable objects or the ground.
Larger, more durable gearcases
Heavy-duty, tapered roller bearings and precision gears help ensure long life.
Blades ensure clean cutting and fine shredding
Suction blades provide additional lift action for picking up downed material. The blades are 1.3 cm x 10.2 cm (0.5 in. x 4 in.) in size and heat-treated for long wear life.
Tractor hookup available in two configurations
The lift-type versions fit tractors with Category 2, 3, or 3N 3-point hitches (with or without Quick Hitch).
Warranty
John Deere is so confident in the reliability of the gearbox that rotary cutters come with a 5-year limited gearbox warranty.
