2025 John Deere Rotary Brush Cutters RE50

RE-model rotary cutters:

• use three swinging blades mounted to a blade carrier to maximize cutting performance.

• are able to fell and cut material up to six inches in diameter.

• are optimized to work with John Deere compact excavators (CEXs). They’re also compatible with many competitive models.

Features may include:

Overview

• These cutters are perfect for embankment and ditch management, over-fence brush management, rail right-of-way maintenance, and maintaining other areas that could otherwise be difficult to reach.

• The RE-Series Rotary Brush Cutters use three swinging blades mounted to a blade carrier to maximize cutting performance.

• Fell and cut material up to 153 mm (6 in.) in diameter.

• Directionally beveled blades push material into the head of the cutter, creating finer debris for easier recycling.

• Heavy-duty hinged debris shield retracts when the head is engaged with trees and brush, exposing the blades, and allowing for aggressive cuts.

• Automatic hydraulic braking quickly stops blade rotation after the machine is turned off.

Overview

• The RE40 and RE50 Rotary Brush Cutters are designed to bring more versatility to excavators and allow users to add profitable applications like vegetation management. With this cutter and the reach provided by an excavator, difficult areas are easier to maintain.

• All models operate without a case drain, for maximum versatility across machines.

• Equipped a bolt-on mounting system, RE-Series Rotary Brush Cutters offer flexible configuration to a variety of coupling systems; if coupling requirements change, units can be quickly and easily reconfigured.

• The blades are reversible, so when the leading-edge wears, the blades can be unbolted and flipped over for a fresh cutting edge.

• The RE-Series models are tested and optimized to work with John Deere excavators, but are also compatible with many competitive 3.5-10 ton excavator models.

Overview

• Built to last, these durable brush cutters have been proven in tough applications.

• RE-Series Rotary Brush Cutters are constructed with a heavy-duty, solid formed steel deck.

• The direct-drive hydraulic motor has a heavy-duty bearing housing, ensuring long hydraulic life.

• RE-Series cutter blades are made from a special hardened, abrasion-resistant steel designed specifically to minimize down time for blade replacement.
