Bobcat CFW12 Rotary Mower

CFW12 –12’ FLEX WING ROTARY CUTTER IMPLEMENT• Wide-cutting capability from 12 to 15 feet, depending on model • Clear brush and trees up to 3 inches in diameter • Robust, heavy-duty gearboxes provide plenty of cutting power • Get clean results with durable ½ x 4-inch blades and 8-inch overlap • Spring suspension absorbs shocks and rough terrain FEATURES & BENEFITSWIDE CUTTING AREAWith a cutting width of 12 to 15 feet, depending on the model, you can quickly tackle expansive brush mowing jobs. The 12-foot model will give you added performance in dense material, while the 15-foot model can tackle more light material in a single pass. RATED FOR 3-INCH-DIAMETER MATERIALThe Bobcat flex-wing rotary cutter is rated to clear material as thick as 3 inches in diameter*. Clear thick vegetation and tree growth with the flex wing rotary cutter. *Carrier specifications will determine actual cutting performance. ROBUST 160 HP/120 HP GEARBOXESRobust, heavy-duty gearboxes power the flex wing rotary cutter. The power divider in front delivers 160 horsepower; center and wing blade gearboxes are 120 hp to deliver ample power for tough cutting work. ½ X 4-INCH BLADES WITH 8-INCH OVERLAPThe key to the flex wing rotary cutter’s brush-clearing capacity is its durable and efficient blade system. Its 8-inch blade overlap beats many competitive models and ensures a clean, consistent result across the entire cutting path. 10-GAUGE DECK WITH SMOOTH TOP FINISHConstructed from 10-gauge steel for maximum durability, the cutting deck has a smooth finish that allows for easy debris removal and cleanup. SLIP CLUTCH PROTECTIONBlade hubs feature a slip clutch that absorbs energy from high-load collisions with obstacles, such as stumps or rocks, protecting drive components from damage or excessive wear. STANDARD TURNBUCKLE DECK ADJUSTMENTS WITH DUAL LEVELING RODSTurnbuckle-style adjustments make it easy to adjust the cutter implement’s deck height and pitch for tailored material processing performance. The deck adjustments also make it easy to adapt the cutter for various tractor pairings. CONSTANT VELOCITY (CV) PTO SHAFTThe constant velocity PTO shaft protects the PTO components and keeps rpm consistent during turns. An omnidirection joint allows the shaft to rotate freely for smooth operation. This reduces stress on the PTO shaft and prevents wear for long life. Because it helps to keep the PTO rpm at a constant velocity, it also helps to improve cutting performance. REPLACEABLE SKID SHOESBolt-on skid shoes allow for cutting depth adjustment – and they’re easily replaceable to simplify maintenance. SPRING SUSPENSIONThe spring ride suspension enhances durability by absorbing shocks and bumps from rough terrain. It also increases comfort on the tractor by absorbing shock from uneven terrain. STANDARD CHAIN GUARDSChain guards help to contain debris during operation. STUMP JUMPERA standard 3/16 x 26-inch stump jumper helps the flex wing rotary cutter ride over terrain and obstacles and minimizes the potential for damage to drive components. Also called a rock jumper, this uptime-protecting feature is not included on many models from other manufacturers. STANDARD WARRANTYRest easy with a 2-year Bobcat warranty on implements and a 5-year limited warranty on the gearboxes. SWIVEL TONGUE ASSEMBLYThe swivel tongue assembly is easy to manipulate during hookup, enabling one person to confidently attach the implement. It rotates during operation to follow contours and protect hitch and drawbar components from damage. SLOW-MOVING VEHICLE SIGNKeep surrounding traffic aware of your presence while transporting the implement. TRAVEL LOCKSTravel locks keep the side wings fixed and secure while transporting your implement. EASY-ACCESS GREASE ZERKSQuickly tackle routine maintenance with open access to the flex wing rotary cutter’s grease zerks. OPTIONAL FEATURESLight kit option: Ideal for municipalities and operators who need lighting for roadways, the optional light kit meets ANSI/ASAE S279.17 regulations. It includes four lights, turning signals and reflectors. TOP TASKS• Roadside and highway mowing • Clearing overgrown fields • Pasture and ranch maintenance • Large-scale brush clearing with thick growth and saplings • Land management site clearing • Managing brush and overgrowth on farms and rural properties HOW IT WORKS• The Flexwing Rotary cutter connects to the tractor’s drawbar. It relies on the tractor’s PTO shaft to transfer power to the cutter’s driveline. • When the tractor’s PTO is engaged, it spins the driveline, which transfers power through gearboxes to the spindles on the center deck and each wing. This then powers the blades to start spinning.• As the tractor moves forward, the spinning blades slice through vegetation. The free-swinging design reduces shock if they hit a solid object and slip clutches in the driveline protect the gearboxes and PTO from damage by allowing slippage under excessive load. • The wings are hinged and can float independently. This allows the cutter to follow the contours of uneven ground—ditches, hills, or ridges. This flexibility ensures a consistent cut across varied landscapes and prevents scalping or leaving patches uncut.
