INTRODUCTION
The Rhino Model FR240/FR162 Rotary Cutter is designed primarily for weed, grass, and brush up to 3"
diameter and consists of a center unit with two variable position wings together having a cutting width of 20
feet. Wing operating angles and machine cutting height are independently controlled using hydraulic cylinders.
A self-leveling linkage maintains a level cutter at all cutting heights. Power from the tractor PTO is split at the
power divider gearbox and supplied to each of the blade gearboxes. Each blade gearbox has two free-
swinging uplift blades designed to cut grass, corn stalks and light brush. Free-swinging blades reduce the
shock of impact when a stationary object is hit. Slip clutches are installed on each gearbox for additional
protection. Front and rear discharge shields are included as standard equipment.
