Overview:
The Ryan JR Sod Cutter is a professional sod cutter used by landscapers everywhere. It features a 5.5 HP Honda engine and a heavy duty cast iron gearcase unit to get the power down to the ground for both the wheel drive and blade drive. This unit will cut a 12" width swath as you slowly walk behind the unit so most rentals are generally back within the 3 hour time frame. Cutting speeds of up to 1200 sq ft per hour are easily attainable. Because this is a heavy duty unit it weighs 298 lbs. This means you can't lift the unit due to it's weight and it is tall, narrow, and easily damaged. This unit does come on a special trailer which is designed for the unit. Just drive it up the ramp, insert the hold-down pin and you are ready to transport with no lifting or rope tie downs required. The 12" wide cutting blade make it easy to maneuver around shrubs, trees, or other objects and also helps penetrate the soil when hard soil conditions exist. To transport this unit all you need is a vehicle with a trailer hitch (2" trailer ball) and trailer lights hookup. When planning your job please keep in mind that you can cut the sod and leave it lay and roll it up later to save time.
