The Land Pride RC2512 is the ideal flex-wing rotary cutter for operators who need the productivity of a 12-foot batwing mower but don’t have a large row-crop tractor. Designed for 40 to 100 horsepower tractors, the RC2512 combines a 12-foot cutting width, low tongue weight, and a tight turning radius, making it an excellent choice for maintaining pastures, waterways, CRP ground, municipal properties, airports, parks, and large acreages. It’s specifically engineered to deliver big-acre performance behind compact utility and utility tractors.
The RC2512 packs many of the same premium features found on larger commercial flex-wing cutters into a machine that’s easy to pull and maneuver. Its narrow tongue design allows sharp turns around trees, ponds, and fence lines, while the independently floating wings follow uneven terrain for a clean, consistent cut.
With a 1½-inch cutting capacity, it’s perfect for annual pasture maintenance, grass, weeds, and light brush. Heavy-duty stump jumpers help the blades ride over rocks and stumps, protecting the driveline and gearboxes from damage.

The RC2512 is an excellent match for:
It is especially well suited for operators who want the productivity of a batwing cutter without moving into a much heavier 15-foot machine.
The RC2512 is one of the best choices for customers maintaining 20 to 100 acres of pasture or grass. Compared to a 6-foot rotary cutter, you’ll nearly double your mowing productivity while using a tractor that’s much smaller than what’s typically required for larger flex-wing mowers.
For MX5400 and MX6000 owners, the RC2512 is an outstanding fit. The low tongue weight and compact design make it easy to maneuver around ponds, waterways, and tree lines while still providing the productivity expected from a commercial-style batwing cutter. Operators mowing roadsides, horse pastures, CRP ground, or recreational properties will appreciate the smooth ride provided by the spring-cushioned suspension and the independently floating wings that follow uneven terrain.
If your work primarily consists of grass, weeds, and light brush up to 1½ inches, the RC2512 offers an excellent balance of productivity, durability, and ease of operation. For heavier saplings or right-of-way maintenance, stepping up to one of Land Pride’s heavier-duty flex-wing cutters would be the better choice.
