The REAPER 52 solves a persistent problem, safely maintaining steep slopes without sacrificing productivity. Traditional methods require multiple crew members working in hazardous conditions. The REAPER 52 handles slopes dangerous for ride-on equipment while one operator controls it from up to 1,000 feet away, staying on safe, level ground.
The REAPER 52 tackles 50° slopes without a winch, accessing terrain that other equipment cannot reach. It has a cutting width of 52 inches, which is where this model gets its name. Operators work from up to 1,000 feet away using a waterproof remote control. Time savings reach approximately 50% compared to traditional methods, letting teams take on labor-intensive projects.
Improved first-pass yield delivers better initial results, reducing follow-up work. A redesigned bumper protects the machine during operation on uneven ground. Higher ground clearance eases obstacle navigation, while stronger bearings and cast-iron spindles extend component lifespan. An improved camera also enhances visibility from a distance, and the soft-start clutch reduces startup stress. At 2,030 pounds with 2.2 PSI ground pressure, the REAPER 52 minimizes surface damage while maintaining stability.
Safety features work together to protect both operators and equipment. If the remote control signal is lost, the mower automatically shuts down rather than continuing to operate without supervision. The operator can also stop the machine immediately using the emergency shutdown feature, while horn alerts provide audible warnings when needed.
Real-time diagnostics give operators constant visibility into machine status, and low-voltage monitors alert before battery problems occur. Waterproof controls withstand harsh conditions, including rain and humidity. Safety interlock prevents unintended operation, and tilt sensors detect unstable ground, triggering protective responses.
Standard Features
Every REAPER 52 comes equipped with a remote control for intuitive operation, a camera feed system for real-time visibility and safety interlock and emergency shutdown systems for protection.
Diagnostic monitoring tracks the machine’s condition continuously, allowing you to identify potential issues before they cause downtime. The adjustable mower deck accommodates different cutting heights based on terrain and vegetation requirements, while the hydrostatic drive delivers precise control over speed and direction.
