2025 Ryan® Sod Cutters SC18H
Legendary performance meets new transmission technology for easier-to-control, smoother, and more stable sod cutting.
- Hydrostatic, variable-speed transmission
- Ultra-low vibration technology
- Easy steer technology
- User friendly operation
- Simple depth and blade-angle adjustment
The Bobcat® SC18H sod cutter’s innovative, hydrostatic, variable-speed transmission lets you power through the cut while its heavy-duty, long-lasting, cast-iron gear case and hydraulic cooling system stand up to the toughest demands – season after season.
- A user-friendly, color-coded interface makes it easy to adjust blade depth and angle for precise cutting – no matter the soil condition.
- Unlock the pneumatic rear caster wheel to easily and tightly maneuver around landscaping, then lock it for unmatched precision on straightaways.
- Featuring ultra-low vibration technology, the rubber isolation mount absorbs shock and machine vibration before they ever reach your hands, saving your arms from fatigue.
Features may include:
Precision Cutting up to 2.5 Inches Deep- Efficiently complete the job with Bobcat sod cutters. You can cut sod up to 2.5 inches thick at a width of 18 inches.
- The Honda GX160 engine provides the durablility and reliability you need for daily sod-cutting duties. The engine is easy starting, fuel efficient and ideal for heavy-duty, sod-cutting applications.
- The hydrostatic transmission delivers the ultimate in productivity. Cut sod at speeds as high as 2 mph or move the machine into position with travel speeds up to 4mph.
- In heavy, challenging soils, you can increase the blade angle up to 10 degrees, which helps maintain optimal ground contact for efficient cutting.
- Turf tread wheels provide the traction you need to efficiently dig into sod while minimizing turf tearing and damage.
- Meticulously engineered for superior strength and durability, the cast-iron gearbox is built to last and designed for maximum uptime.
- A tough front bumper guards your machine as you lean it forward for the cut; it also protects from unexpected contact with jobsite obstacles.
- The reinforced edge of a laser-clad blade keeps its shape longer, sharpening itself as it wears down. Depending on working conditions, it can last up to 2.5 times longer than a standard blade. It’s a must-have for abrasive, sandy soils.
- Bobcat sod cutters feature rubber vibration isolators that that enhance operator comfort and reduce fatigue. Rubber handle knobs further enhance the operator experience.
- The caster wheel supports easy turning and manueverabily for precise operation.
