individual skid steers auxiliary hydraulic outlets will need

product owners.

by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper
assembly, maintenance and safe operating practices will

Application
The SC2660 and SC2672 Series Skid Steer Rotary
Cutters are built and designed by Land Pride for cutting
on gently sloping or slightly contoured right-of-ways,
pastures, set aside acres, and row crop fields. These
skid steer mounted cutters provide unparalleled access
to tightly restricted areas such as under fences, in and
around boxed in corner sections of corrals and out
buildings, vineyard and nursery rows, wooded lots, and
approaches to ditches and waterways. The 60" or 72"
cutting width, 8"offset capability to the right, 2" cutting
capacity, 1.5" to 18" cutting height range, and the
universal skid steer floating-hitch mounting plate make
the SC2660 and SC2672 highly versatile and easy to
use. The SC2660 is compatible with and designed for
attachment to skid steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi
operating pressure and flow rates in the 11-15 gpm,
15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges. The SC2672 is
compatible with and designed for attachment to skid
steers having 1500 psi to 3000 psi operating pressure
and flow rates in the 15-21 gpm, or 18-27 gpm ranges.
The SC2660 and SC2672 provide very high and clean
cutting blade tip speeds but owner/operators will need to
select the motor that is appropriately matched to their
skid steers hydraulic flow and pressure capabilities. Our
low volume motor, which is available on the SC2660
only, produces a blade tip speed of 18,540 fpm at
15 gpm. Medium volume and high volume motors are
available for both models. On the SC2660, our medium
volume motor produces 18,850 fpm at 21 gpm, and our
high volume motor produces 19,000 fpm at 27 gpm. On
the SC2672, our medium volume motor produces
17,200 fpm at 21 gpm, and our high volume motor
produces 18,550 fpm at 27 gpm. Each unit is equipped
with two 1/2" x 4"updraft blades and a heavy duty round
pan stump jumper. A deflector chute is located to the left
rear side of the cutter to prevent clogging in heavy cutting
conditions.
The SC2660 and SC2672 come standard with a front
mounted single row chain guard, a rear mounted double
row chain guard, and a safety chain to restrict deck lift
height. Four corner-mounted skid shoes are provided to
reduce wear and to keep the cutter from bottoming out. A
Lexan protective cab door is available as optional
equipment or owner/operators may choose to use a
protective door provided or made available by their skid
steer supplier/manufacturer.
