JCB 72 Inch Skid Steer Rotary Cutter
Overview
The 72-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

🔍 Also consider…
- Brush cutter if you regularly encounter heavy overgrowth and saplings
- Flail mower for safer, finer-cut results near roads or structures
