Great for trimming hedges, and fruit trees such as citrus, custard apples, lychees, macadamias, apple orchards, olives.
The SA1000 Swivel Trim Cutter Bar allows you to quickly convert a front loader to a hedge trimmer. It’s a quick and easy system allowing you to perform neat hedge trimming. The SA1000 connects to the machine hydraulics so a suitable hydraulic flow is necessary for proper operation. Eighty horse power upwards is recommended.
The best way to attach the cutter bar is to bring two hydraulic hoses from the rear of the tractor and connect them to the hedge cutter. The extra exhillary on the loader connects to the hydraulic ram. This allows you to move the hedge cutter from horizontal to vertical. This product has a spring break away which protects the cutting head. It is very easy to use because you are cutting straight ahead of you and the steering is very responsive to your cut.
You can reach good heights with your loader and cutter bar combination so you get a neat and even cut. By removing one pin, you can easily swivel the head to the opposite side. This allows you to cut down behind fences and it also allows you to cut into corners. This operation is very difficult with other hedge cutters.
This unit comes ready to use, including a hitch, hydraulic hoses and couplings.
