Piranha Single Rotor Slashers
Single Rotor Slashers consist of a single right angle drive gearbox that is geared up at a ratio of either 1:1.47 or 1:1.93 depending on the size of the rotor.
They are available in either Offset to the Right Headstock (three point linkage pick up point) allowing the edge of the slasher to run outside the wheel of the tractor. This gives the operator the flexibility to run along a fence line or closer to a tree line or obstacle. Or a Centre Mount which is centrally mounted behind the tractor which travels in line with the slasher making for easy operation in vineyards or nurseries or any where with a lot of straight-line cutting.
An alternative option available on some models is a Double Headstock which gives the best of both worlds as it has both position pick ups allowing the operator to pick it up in the central position or the offset position to allow for both needs.
A further option on single rotors is the sides configuration, being either Adjustable Sides, Fixed Sides or Side Delivery.
Adjustable Sides come with separate sides that bolt on in three different positions which in turn gives three different cuttings heights (25mm-50mm-75mm) giving the operator the choice of cutting height.
Fixed Sides is more of a budget option and is a fixed one piece side that is at a preset cutting height of approximately 40mm.
The Side Delivery option is made up of a removable side plate. This allows the cut material to be ejected out the right hand side of the single rotor unit. The mulch can then be used to help with weed suppression, reduce chemical application and help with water retention. This unit does require either a rear roller (standard) or a wheel kit to help carry the unit once its side has been removed.
