The SC470 side-arm mower reaches 4.65 m from the tractor with a 1.2 m width of cut. Up to 240° of head rotation lets it maintain hedges, mow verges and work into ditches, while the floating main arm follows uneven ground.
Ryetec's MP300 sidearm suits compact tractors from 16 hp with 3.05 m reach. SL models suit 20–45 hp tractors with up to 3.85 m reach, or up to 5.15 m with a fingerbar head. The SC470 gives 4.65 m reach for tractors over 2,150 kg. Ballast may be needed to reach the minimum tractor weight.
