The Brown 2000 Series Folding Deck Tree Cutter incorporates hydraulic folding deck doors for added safety and a more efficient mulching capability. The folding deck design allows for two distinct types of mowing operations, while providing maximum safety. With the deck doors raised on the 2000 series, it can back into and cut standing trees up to eight (8) inches in diameter (depending on model). Use the folding deck doors down and the 2000 series can cut and grind materials which the tractor has driven over with virtually no discharge. The difference is in the design of the deck. When the deck doors are in the down position, the materials stay under the deck much longer allowing more contact time between the blades and the material being mulched, producing much better results and less discharge. Most materials thrown from the blades will strike the rear slanted deck section and be deflected down for safety. The rear deck doors should be open only when the operator is backing into material that cannot be driven forward over.

The Brown 2000 Series Open Deck Tree Cutter incorporates a twin coil spring pressure bar assembly to give added strength, durability, and better operation. The deck design reduces the amount of discharged debris. A front safety chain curtain helps control frontal discharge.
