Remote control mower for brush and land clearing
Saplings, brambles, gorse and standing growth up to 3 metres. The machine goes in on tracks, the operator stays on the road, and the rotor mulches what it cuts.
Land clearing is the job these machines were built for. A tractor-mounted cutter needs a clear run and a cab; a strimmer crew has to stand next to the growth. A tracked remote control mower does neither — it climbs the bank, crosses the ditch and works the thicket while the operator stands 200–500 m away with a transmitter.
Heavy brush and brambles
Blackthorn, bramble, gorse, saplings up to 60 mm.
What we quote
| Model | MA-100-2 |
| Rotor | 66 blades |
| Cut height | 2–15 cm |
| Pattern | Two passes, opposing |
A 66-blade spade rotor does not saw through a stem, it hits it. Free-swinging blades on a horizontal shaft strike the same stem dozens of times a second from different angles, so nothing has to be lifted, aligned or fed in. That is why the deck can be driven into a bramble patch instead of being eased along its edge.
Throughput is the commercial argument. A three-person clearing crew with brushcutters works a thicket at roughly 0.1–0.2 ha per day and spends most of it on footing and extraction. The same patch takes one operator and a tracked mower a fraction of that time, with nobody standing next to the blades.
What to watch
Blade condition, not engine power, sets the limit. Check the hangers every 8–10 hours in heavy brush; a worn blade swings back instead of cutting and the deck starts riding up. Keep the discharge side clear and away from anything you want to keep.
Woodland understory and firebreaks
Under-canopy work, firebreak strips, fence lines.
Under a canopy the constraint is height and access, not power. The MA-80 clears 2–20 cm at the deck and passes under low limbs that would stop a tractor. For firebreak strips, two passes in opposing directions leave a mulch layer that holds moisture and slows regrowth.
Keep the deck clear of root flares and stone. A spade rotor will cut a 60 mm sapling, but a buried rock stops it dead — walk the strip once before the first pass on ground you have not worked.
Fence lines and boundaries
Fence lines are the narrow case. The machine tracks along the line with the deck offset, and the operator works from the field side rather than reaching into the wire. For boundaries next to a road or a neighbour, the remote range means the operator can stand where the discharge is visible.
Cleared sites and reclamation
Former plots, spoil heaps, construction pads, cut-over ground.
What we quote
| Model | MA-100-1 |
| Rotor | 66 blades |
| Cut height | 5–20 cm |
| Duty | Sustained |
Reclaimed ground is usually a mix of regrowth, rubble and compacted spoil. The tracked chassis handles the surface; the rotor handles the growth. Contractors use these machines to hold a site between clearance and build, where a strimmer crew would need re-booking every few weeks.
Width drives cost. A 1,000 mm rotor clears a pad in fewer passes than an 800 mm machine, and on a large site pass count is the line item that decides the quote.
Practical constraints
Debris. Wire, cable ties and plastic strapping wrap a rotor; walk the site and pull them out first. Dust. Dry spoil raises a cloud that hides the machine — work upwind and keep the operator in sight of the deck.
Overgrown banks and ditches
Overgrown embankments, ditch sides, levee slopes.
What we quote
| Model | MA-100-SA |
| Rotor | 66 blades |
| Cut height | 5–15 cm |
| Pattern | Traverse, top down |
The bank is where the tracked layout matters most: low centre of gravity, wide track contact and no operator on the slope. The SA deck follows the contour instead of holding a fixed height, which keeps the cut even where the bank rolls.
Two things decide whether a crew keeps using the machine on banks: whether it can get back up, and whether the operator can see. Test the climb on the first job with the deck raised, and keep the operator on the crest with a clear line of sight.
Safety
Nobody on the incline — that is the whole point. The risk on a bank is the fall, not the cut. Keep the radio line clear, watch the battery, and stop the rotor before anyone walks in.
Fit at a glance
If your job sits in the left column, the machine will earn its keep. If it sits in the right, buy something else.
| Good fit | Poor fit |
|---|---|
| Banks and embankments with no safe footing | Flat lawns above 1 ha |
| Rows and gaps from 0.9 m wide | Finish cut on ornamental turf |
| Standing brush up to 3 m | Single one-off clearance jobs |
| Operator exposure to traffic or height | Ground with buried irrigation or cable |
| Repeated verges or panel rows | Mature timber above 30 mm stems |
