Overview
The 60-inch-inch rotary cutter (brush hog) clears tall grass, light brush, saplings, and overgrown fence lines on Canadian acreages and road allowances. JCB attachments are available through Canadian equipment dealers and distributors. A high-inertia blade deck absorbs impacts from hidden rocks and stumps better than disc mulchers. Best matched to skid steers with adequate hydraulic flow. Available through JCB dealers across Canada.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You maintain pastures, hayfields, road shoulders, or utility corridors with grass and light brush
- You need a high-productivity mowing attachment that's simple to maintain and easy to source parts for
- Your operation requires regular acreage mowing on medium to large skid steers
⛔ Skip if…
- You're cutting woody brush over 2 inches in diameter regularly — a brush cutter or mulcher is a better fit
- Discharge direction is a concern near structures or people — a flail mower has contained discharge
🔍 Also consider…
- Brush cutter if you regularly encounter heavy overgrowth and saplings
- Flail mower for safer, finer-cut results near roads or structures
🔧 Machine Compatibility
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

Care & Maintenance
- Inspect blade tips or flail hammers for wear after each use — dull cutting edges increase engine load and reduce cut quality significantly
- Check all blade bolts for proper torque before every use — loose blades on a high-RPM rotary cutter are a serious safety hazard
- Grease deck spindle bearings after every 8 hours of operation — spindle bearing failure is the most common and expensive rotary cutter repair
- Check the belt drive or hydraulic motor for overheating signs (excessive heat, smell) after extended cutting sessions in dense material
- Remove wrapped material (wire, twine, root) from around the rotor shaft after every use — wrapped material cuts through shaft seals and causes bearing contamination
How to Connect
- Attach rotary cutter frame using Bob-Tach
- Connect hydraulic couplers for motor
- Test blade rotation direction before cutting
- Keep 50m+ clear of bystanders — blade tip speed is extremely high
⚠ Safety NoteNever cut material larger than the blade rating. Rotary cutters eject debris at high velocity.
