Read the machine.
Check the differences.
Use the working width, full dimensions and configuration together. This page separates the measurements and systems that are easy to confuse.
Three cutting configurations, three sets of questions.
Reference configurations from the latest supplied sheet. These are comparison points, not interchangeable specifications.
| Specification | 800 rotary configuration | 1000 flail configuration | 550 EV configuration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Working width | 800 mm | 1000 mm | 550 mm |
| Cutting-height adjustment | 10–200 mm, electric | 10–280 mm, hydraulic | 10–150 mm, electric |
| Power information | 16 HP petrol | Petrol or diesel options, confirm engine | 1200 W brushless cutting deck |
| Travel drive | 2 × 1000 W motors | 2 × 1000 W motors | 2 × 500 W motors |
| Primary comparison | Deck width, overall access and engine | Cutter arrangement, vegetation and height system | Battery configuration, charging and work pattern |
The named product variants in the catalogue may use different configurations. The quotation and model sheet identify the version supplied.
A controller is part of the configuration.
The supplied option list includes the C7 standard controller, RC single-hand system, H12 video-return system and industrial controller options. Compatibility and availability need to be checked against the machine.
Ask which functions are controlled remotely, how the stop controls work and what information is displayed. Video return and industrial control options should be identified explicitly in the order.
Look beneath the width figure.
Rotary and flail arrangements use different cutting structures. A width measurement does not describe the cutter geometry, the vegetation it is intended to handle or the resulting finish.
For a flail enquiry, ask for a close view of the fitted cutters and the relevant replacement-part identification. For rotary equipment, check the deck and blade configuration attached to the quoted model.
Measurement guide
Keep these figures separate.
Cutting width / machine width
Cutting width describes the working cut. Overall width determines whether the complete machine can pass through a gate or between fixed obstacles.
Body height / cutting height
Body height affects branch and structure clearance. Cutting height describes the cutter setting above the ground, and may have a different adjustment mechanism by model.
Net weight / gross weight
Net weight describes the machine. Gross weight includes packaging and the supplied shipment contents. Use the final gross figure for transport planning.
Nominal range / working visibility
A published remote-control range is a stated specification under conditions that must be confirmed. It does not remove the need to assess visibility, interference and the model operating instructions.
Use video to check a specific detail.
Demonstrations supplied with the equipment materials. Confirm the model shown when comparing against a quotation.
The working pass
Observe the vegetation before the pass, the travel path and the visible cut finish. Keep the terrain in view.
The control layout
Identify the handset and the functions demonstrated. Match it with the controller included in the proposed package.
The operation walkthrough
Note the machine version and the sequence shown. Use the applicable manual for complete operating procedures.
