Quick Attach
Brushcutters
Quick
Attach Mowers and Brushcutters are a relatively new introduction into
the governmental mowing industry. The goal is to provide a robust
mowing platform in the form of an implement. This permits the
usage of the platform equipment for multiple purposes. Little
provides Quick Attach Boom Mowers for the Caterpillar IT14G Wheeled
Loader and Mercedes Benz U500 Unimog Truck.
The Boom is
attached to the vehicle via a unitized PowerFrame. The frame is
designed to absorb the torsional loading of the Boom and provide a
quick field interchange once
the initial installation is complete by a Little Authorized Dealer. |

Caterpillar Quick Attach Brushcutters
The advantages of the IT14G and 924 Work Tools with a Little Boom
Mower are the operator visibility, mower positioning, and speed of the
change-over. The mower is mounted to the B series
coupler and the hydraulics are fully integrated with the IT14G.
The Work Tool can be
ordered pre-configured for the Mower package (MA 3). The
Dealer can
order all material to easily complete the initial installation. |

Unimog U500 Quick Attach Brushcutter
The U500 Quick Attach Brushcutter is offered either in a
PTO driven configuration or hydraulically connected from the Power Beyond Hydraulic
Package.
A unique feature of this product is the LH/RH mowing along
with the quick attach to the DIN 5 Front Plate. This highly
flexible platform has a somewhat lighter duty flail head mower to
enable roading at speeds up to 70 MPH.
The Brushcutter PowerFrame, Transport Carrier, and
Counterweights are shipped to the Dealer for initial installation.
Once this is completed, the Brushcutter can be removed within 30
minutes and another implement such as a snow-plow or sweeper can be
attached to the DIN 5 plate. |
