The 6000 Series hedge and verge cutter range has been developed by utilizing some of the key features from both the 7000 & 8000 series to create a trimmer range with high specifications as far as performance but maintain a suitable weight to operate on medium sized tractors. This range is therefore suited to both farmers and contractors.
Two models are available: 6056 5.6m Fixed boom machine & 6060T 6m Telescopic machine.
The 6056 trimmer is fitted with a fixed boom giving a maximum reach of 5.60M. Suited to operations such as verge mowing or when operating on medium sized tractors where overall weight is critical.
Many of the features have come directly from the larger trimmers such as the 70hp hydraulic system and the GP1200 head therefore making the model suited both to the farmer and contactor.
