Head rotation - the key to flexible hedge cutting
Ryetec sidearms have the head fitted at one end of the head (MP) or behind the head (SL).
This feature allows the flail head to rotate up to 246º to cut close to the tractor in the vertical position in narrow lanes and allow the machine to level top very high hedges, whereas machines designed primarily for grass cutting have the arm mounted on top of the flail giving limiting the head angle to a maximum of 180º.
(Right) SL420 with arm mounted behind the head. This makes it capable of level topping a 3.4m (11’4”) high hedge, ie measurement ‘D’ on the table below
