About this file
This is a specifications document for a 15-foot commercial rotary cutter mower. The equipment must be a 3-section flexible PTO-driven cutter measuring between 13.5 and 15 feet in length, powered by a 540 RPM shaft. The mower requires CAT 5 or 6 main and wing drivelines with slip clutch protection, a 360-degree swivel hitch, and accepted gearbox manufacturers including Pavesi, Comer, or Bondioli. The equipment must feature a minimum 250-horsepower transfer gearbox and 225-horsepower cutting gearbox, with clockwise rotation on the left wing and counter-clockwise rotation on the right wing to minimize debris dispersal. The mower must be capable of cutting material up to 4 inches, with adjustable wing working angles ranging from 22 to 45 degrees and cutting heights between 1.5 and 16 inches, maintaining a minimum 6-inch blade overlap.
The mower must include a 4-wheel center frame with 2 wheels on wings supported by dual axle arm bundles, with foam-filled severe duty tires and either torsional or spring suspension. The deck must be a minimum 7-gauge single construction or 10-gauge top/bottom double deck with protective deck rings, and the unit must be equipped with independent hydraulic cylinders for cutter and wing lift, a parking jack, and safety features including a Slow Moving Vehicle emblem and double-row front and rear 5/16-inch chains. The gearbox carries a minimum 5-year warranty.
