Bush Hog®’s Legendary Single-Spindle Rotary Cutters

The New BH100 Series picks up where the Razorback Series left off. Bush Hog®’s legendary durability and reliability is enhanced even further in the new light-duty BH100 Series. We’ve taken our quality to a new level in the BH100 Series by robotically welding the entire cutter. All welding is performed on the underside of the deck giving these cutters a clean, sleek appearance. All welds are applied at the same temperature, angle, and duration to ensure consistency from start to finish.

Additional enhancements include a stronger gearbox stand and tailwheel caster fork, optional front chain shielding, and optional Cat. 1 Quick Hitch.

Bush Hog®’s Legendary Single-Spindle Rotary Cutters Building on the success of the BH200 Series, the new BH200-2 Series Rotary Cutters combine the legacy and reputation of Bush Hog®'s Single Spindles with new, innovative design updates. These updated cutters now have full-length 10ga strongbacks designed to reinforce the entire length of the cutter, front to back, especially enhancing the rear half of the cutter and tailwheel structure.

Reinforcement plates have been added to the bottom of the rear sidebands, providing extra strength in this critical area when backing into vegetation. Tall grass, pesky weeds, and small brush are no match for these authentic Bush Hog® built cutters. Available in 5', 6', and 7' cutting widths, the BH200-2 Series Rotary Cutters are “Made in America” and designed to deliver superior performance in tough conditions, day after day, and year after year.
