Cutlass Rollamo

  

For a superior finish on fine turf, sports pitches, golf courses, caravan parks or open spaces, the Rollamo is the best there is.

Appreciating the need for high work rates during long days, Port Agric has gone to the unprecedented steps of creating their own bearing housings for the rollers of every CUTLASS ROLLAMO. The bearing shafts have been welded into to the roller tube and ground off flush to enhance the finished product for both the manufacturer and the end user.

Shaft driven with the same rugged drive line as the other CUTLASS mowers, these twin roller machines come in 1.8m (6ft), 2.13m (7ft) and for wide, flat areas 2.74m (9ft). Full width 150mm (6") diameter rollers are tapered at each end, preventing marking of the ground when turning, the result is a quality striped finish. The height adjustment is by means of a turnbuckle in each corner, giving the finest of adjustments needed for amenity purposes, from 15-150mm without the use of tools. The robust shaft drive maintains a constant high tip speed that is so important for quality grass cutting, with no belts to to maintain or slip, a faster workrate can be acheived whatever the conditions. The robust design and overlapping, contra rotating blades can also cope with the heaviest growth of heather, brambles and wet grass, mulching it down to a respectable finish.

The grass is distributed evenly at the rear of the machine and due to the underside of the deck being free of any ducting, allows greater volumes of grass to pass through. Rubber couplings protect the drive line from overloading and a shearbolt in the PTO shaft protects from shock. Again power requirement is minimal with the 1.8m Rollamo only requiring 25hp, bringing into the remit of compact tractors. The Rollamo has obvious advantages over a gang of cylinders, both in the initial purchase price and in on-going maintenance costs.
