Leonardi M1 Blueshark cutting system
The M1 Blueshark cutting system for machines up to 40-hp. has simplified tooth ordering
and maintenance. Only one tooth needed; no more rights, lefts, straights or pockets. Teeth
are 3-position indexable, and new Rock Guard Technology ensures you get use of all indexes.
Only one tool is required for changing and indexing, saving you time and money. Blueshark's
reduced wheel weight allows for easier maneuverability, decreased operator effort, better
balance, and less clutch and belt wear. It has improved cutting in both directions, and also
allows for plunging.
Rayco RG27 /RG35 Super Jr. stump cutters
The latest evolution to Rayco's popular Super Jr. stump cutter line is here. Two new models
are now available. The RG27 Super Jr. and RG35 Super Jr. are compact, self-propelled stump
cutters with a newly designed pivot, allowing bigger cutting dimensions and less maintenance.
Wider tires provide more fl oatation and traction for getting into jobs with sensitive turf conditions.
Rayco's swing-out control station provides better visibility while cutting, and swings in-line with
the machine for travel through gates. Both belt systems have been moved to the non-operator
side to further enhance visibility while cutting. The new units are powered by Vanguard Big Block
gasoline engines. The RG27 is 27 hp. and has an optional hydraulic backfi ll blade. The RG35 is 35
hp. and has 2-speed ground travel and a standard hydraulic backfi ll blade. Dual rear wheels are
optional for both models.
Vermeer SC362 stump cutter
Tree care contractors and arborists looking for a com-
pact, high-horsepower machine to remove stumps
will appreciate the features of the Vermeer SC362
stump cutter. Equipped with a 35-hp. Vanguard gas
engine and belt-driven cutter head, the self-propelled
SC362 provides ample power to remove medium-
sized stumps. The unit also features a hydraulic
drive system and front-wheel steering for ease in
maneuvering the stump cutter in and out of compact
spaces. A two-speed ground drive system allows for
fast transport between stumps and to and from the
trailer; and, at only 50 inches wide, the SC362 stump
cutter easily fi ts through a backyard gate. With a 47-
inch cutting width, the SC362 makes short work of
stump-removal projects. The optional AutoSweep
system monitors engine speed and automatically
adjusts the cutter wheel sweep rate to maximize
productivity and reduce premature wear. A 17-inch
cutter wheel is equipped with the Vermeer exclusive
Yellow Jacket cutter system.
