Safety Guard Options
!
DANGER
Rotary Cutters have the ability to discharge objects at high
speeds; therefore, the use of front and rear safety guards is
strongly recommended when cutting. Specifically, double row
chainguards should be used along highways and in areas
where people may be present.
!
DANGER
Safety shields will not stop all objects. Therefore, Land Pride
recommends using extreme caution when cutting in public
areas. Stop blade rotation if bystanders come within several
hundred feet.
Land Pride offers four types of safety guards to best suit
your application: rubber skirt guards, single row
chainguards, double row chainguards, and double row
chainguards with cable.
•
Rubber skirt guards are designed for light duty
applications.
•
Single row chainguards are constructed with a single
row of hanging chain links. They can withstand harsher
applications than rubber skirts.
•
Double row chainguards are constructed with two
staggered rows of hanging chain links. The second row
provides an additional barrier for stopping thrown
objects.
•
Double row chainguards with cable are constructed
with a double row of hanging chain links and a steel
cable threaded through the bottom hanging chain links.
This restricts the hanging links from spreading apart
when hit by solid objects.

Tire Options
Land Pride offers six tire/wheel options to best suit your
application:
•
Laminated tire are constructed of laminated layers of
solid rubber that will never go flat.
•
Aircraft tire are built tough to withstand the rugged use
a cutter receives and to provide a smoother ride when
transporting from field to field. If they are foam filled,
they won’t go flat.
Hydraulic Accessories
Land Pride offers three different kits for raising the deck
wings independently to clear small obstacles in the field
without maneuvering around them.
Optional Low Lift Blades
Land Pride recommends low lift blades when cutting tall
Johnson Grass and brush as they provide a better quality
of cut when cutting these materials. See Figure 5-3 on
page 33 for Low Lift Blade Part Numbers.
