Additionally, the brush cutter would need to have a PTO horsepower of 65-250, 180" cutting width, 4" cutting capacity diameter, a self- leveling swivel clevis hitch, and deck thickness no less than .179". The main driveline should be Cat 5 heavy 3 joint. It should have 21" laminated tires, the shielding should be double chain, and it should have quick -change pins which allow for speedy blade changes in the field. A compatible model would be a WOODS BW1800X 15 ft. dual-wing cutter. DISC HARROW Our current disc harrow is a single point with hydraulic controlled depth settings. We need a new 8' disc harrow that has a category 2 three point quick hitch. The harrow will need to have notched blades (not smooth). This type of disc harrow will allow us to have more uses with fewer long term maintenance costs. Also, the harrow will need to have 20 blades. A compatible model would be a Woods brand DHM96.
