We get a lot of calls form guys running orchards or roadside maintenance crews who’ve been by hand or using a flail mower for years, and they’re finally ready to upgrade to something that doesn’t take all day — this is the unit that pretty much always comes up in those conversations, because it turns a 40HP tractor into a dedicated trimming rig without needing a second machine.

That adjustable speed of 1 to 2 km/h is what actually makes the difference between a rough hack job and a clean finish, so you slow it down when you’re hitting thicker stuff and speed up on the lighter growth, and the three 400mm blades spin off the PTO at 540 rpm — so you’re looking at about 260kg hanging off the three-point hitch, which means the tractor needs to handle that weight plus the reach.

The 4-joystick setup is what I’d call actually easy to get the hang of — one controls the vertical trim height up to 3960mm, another handles horizontal out to 2750mm—the third is for angle cuts, and the fourth manages the swing distance of about 3080mm or so; in most cases buyers dial in a pattern after the first hour and then it’s just throttle and steering.
CE compliant is on the plate, and we ship it with a COA for the weld specs, but here’s a detail nobody asks about until they’re unloading it: the saw blade mounting pattern is a standerd 25mm bore with a centering bushing, so replacement blades are straightforward to source locally if you’ve got good hardware suplier — the 100mm maximum diameter is a hard limit though, so don’t try to force it through anything thicker because the hydraulic feed just won’t have the.

When you place an order (lead time is usually 2-3 weeks if we’ve got stock, but check on that), you’ll get the trimmer assembly with the solenoid valve block already plumbed, the three blades mounted, a set of joystick handles with hydraulic hoses, and a basic operation manual — the 1-year manufacturing defects on teh frame and valve body, but the blades are consumable, so they arent included under that, which seems obvious but I always mention it.
You'll need a tractor with at least 40HP. Anything less won't have enough power to run the hydraulics and saw blades effectively at the PTO's 540 rpm.
No, the maximum cutting diameter is 100mm. For anything bigger, you'd risk stalling the saw or damaging the blades.
The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. It doesn't cover wear and tear items like saw blades, or damage from misuse.
Typically 2-4 weeks from order confirmation, depending on stock. We'll give you a firm ETA once we check inventory.
Yes, the GXJ-04 is CE compliant, and we provide the certificate with the shipment. That covers the main safety and quality standards for the EU market.
