2025 John Deere Rotary Cutters RX72

RX Rotary Cutters are designed for:

• brush clearing

• hardwood clearing

• cutting unkept grass and vegetation

Features may include:

Overview

• The auxiliary hoses to the prime mover are individually protected with a Cordura sleeve and collectively wrapped with an additional spiral hose protector to prevent hose damage. cutters come standard with a motor cover that protects the hydraulic hose connections from debris. Many competitive models leave these components exposed and vulnerable to damage.

Overview

• A heavy-duty front push bar is integrated into the rotary cutter deck structure which can be used to guide trees when felling.

• Aggressively serrated corners of the push bar are useful to maneuver trees and brush.

Overview

• The RX-Series utilize a hydraulic valve to brake quickly and safely. An audible sound is heard during shutdown to indicate the blades stopped spinning. The direct drive bearing requires a 1200-hr drain and refill maintenance interval. Many competitors typically require maintenance intervals as low as 500 hr.

• Direct drive bearing system offers fewer moving parts to maintain, drop-in motor alignment, and better system efficiency.

Overview

• The RX-Series have bolt-on skid shoes that can quickly be replaced in the field when worn out.

Overview

• An exclusive forward shield rolls back when contacting larger diameter trees, and its weight returns the shield to the closed position during normal operation. This feature exposes the blades for felling standing trees and then covers the blades during ground cleanup. Smaller trees, foliage, and brush bend beneath the heavy weight of the shield as they are drawn into the cutter. The shield provides a barrier to the operator while in its retracted state. Additionally, the shield mechanism does not require maintenance or grease.
