1-2 DESCRIPTION

The Model 2715 Rotary Cutter (Figure 1-1) consists

of a center unit with two variable position wings to-

gether having a cutting width of 15 feet (4.6m). The

Model 2710 Rotary Cutter consists of a center unit

with one variable position wing together having a cut-

ting width of 10-1/2 feet (3.2m). Wing operating an-

gles 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 di-

vider gearbox and supplied to each of the blade gear-

boxes. 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 stan-

dard equipment. (Note: Dealer or purchaser may

elect to delete at their option). Machine specifica-

tions are given in Table 1-1.
