The R-60 remote control slope mower handles slopes up to 50°. It cuts brush up to 1.5 inches in diameter and has a cutting width of 60 inches, hence the name. The wide deck provides greater coverage than the 52-inch model, R-52. Remote control operation from up to 1,000 feet keeps personnel on safe ground. Expect time savings of approximately 50% compared to manual methods, with increased area coverage per hour.
Engineering improvements have elevated first-pass cutting quality beyond previous models. The redesigned front bumper offers better protection when navigating uneven surfaces, while increased ground clearance helps the mower move over obstacles. Cast-iron spindles and upgraded bearings withstand demanding conditions, and the refined camera system delivers clearer visibility. A softer-start clutch reduces stress on components during startup. Additionally, despite the wider deck, engineers maintained standard trailer compatibility.
Remote operation keeps workers on stable ground rather than exposed on dangerous slopes. Emergency shutdown capability provides immediate control, while audible horn alerts signal when situations require attention.
The system includes automatic shutdown protocols if the remote signal is interrupted. Continuous diagnostic feedback gives operators real-time visibility into equipment status, and battery monitors provide advanced warning before power issues. Interlock systems prevent accidental engagement, controls resist water damage and sensors identify unstable ground, activating protective protocols.
Meet the R-60
The R-60 provides an upgraded solution for operations requiring maximum coverage on challenging terrain. The wider cutting deck reduces passes needed to complete a job, translating to faster turnaround and lower labor costs per acre. Organizations managing large municipal properties, extensive park systems or high-volume commercial contracts benefit from this coverage advantage.
Why the R-60 Delivers Superior Performance
Width matters when covering significant acreage on difficult terrain. The R-60’s deck allows operators to complete jobs more quickly than narrower alternatives while maintaining remote control safety benefits. For municipalities managing multiple sites or contractors juggling tight schedules, this efficiency boost creates measurable improvements. The platform was engineered to deliver increased capacity without sacrificing trailer compatibility.
Available in Ohio, Michigan, West PA, Kentucky and Indiana
Standard Features
Every R-60 remote control slope mower includes a remote control console for intuitive command over all mower functions. The camera feed system delivers real-time visibility of the cutting area and surrounding terrain. Safety interlock and emergency shutdown systems provide protection, while diagnostic monitoring continuously tracks machine condition. The wide adjustable mower deck accommodates different cutting heights, and the hydrostatic drive delivers precise control.
Options and Customization
The R-60 can be configured with extended remote range and enhanced camera systems, including thermal or night vision capabilities. MTech offers extended warranty coverage, operator training programs, preventive maintenance scheduling and flexible rental and purchase arrangements.
Rental vs. Purchase
Renting makes sense for large seasonal projects, equipment testing or supplementing existing fleets. Purchasing delivers maximum return for operations with consistent, frequent mowing requirements.
