The high lift on the Gator Mulcher draws the grass up, giving it a clean, even cut Other mulching blades push grass down, often resulting in an uneven, ragged cut. The high lift also makes using the Gator Mulcher in bagging operations an excellent choice. You get the look of a bagged lawn while reducing clippings by up to 5O%.
How do the teeth work?
While it may appear that the raised teeth are for cutting, they don't cut the grass at all. It is the angle of the tooth that produces the excellent mulching results. The teeth angle toward the center of the blade to redirect the airflow and push the grass clippings back over the cutting edge of the mower blade again and again. At a maximum blade tip speed of 19,000 FPM the same grass clipping moves across the cutting edge an average of 4 times, resulting in a superior mulch. The teeth on other mulching blades angle out-from the blade, directing the clippings away from the blade's cutting edge, resulting in much larger clippings.
Is the Gator Mulcher right for my mower?
On standard mowers, the Gator Mulcher works best on multi-blade decks, particularly when mowing into the discharge. Mulching adapter kits are not required. For single blade applications we recommend installing a mulching kit for best results, but you will see significant mulching action even without an adapter. Gator Mulcher blades will enhance the performance of any mulching mower, single or multi-blade.
Under what conditions will the Gator Mulcher perform best?
The Gator Mulcher works best when removing about an 1 1/2 in. of grass, however many cutters have had success in much longer grass. The Gator Mulcher also performs extremely well in sandy conditions. For fall leaf cleanup, nothing works better. Leaves are reduced to a powder, so bagging or vacuuming is not required.
How do I sharpen a Gator Mulcher blade?
The teeth on the Gator Mulcher do not cut the grass, so sharpening them isn't required. Simply sharpen your GatorMulcher as you would any standard mower blade.
Is there a Gator Mulcher blade for my mower?
We offer Gator Mulchers for both residential and commercial mowers specifically designed for the most popular mower applications.
What about blade quality?
Gator Mulcher blades are made in the U.S. from the finest American made high carbon 10B38 steels. The cutting edges are carbide milled for a super sharp edge. Every blade is fully heat-treated to a Rockwell C-scale hardness of 50 for optimum safety and durability, then straightened for a precision cut.
Massey Ferguson
Massey Ferguson, a worldwide brand of AGCO (NYSE:AGCO), is excited to announce a fresh new look for its iconic Triple Triangle logo and its new “Born to Farm” brand identity to celebrate its 175 year anniversary in 2022.
“Massey Ferguson has been offering farmers around the world straightforward and dependable machines since its inception nearly 175 years ago. Few brands around the world can claim such a lasting impact in the agricultural industry. Massey Ferguson was truly ‘Born to Farm’” said Eric Hansotia, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of AGCO Corporation.
Luis Felli, Senior Vice President, General Manager for Massey Ferguson, adds, “Massey Ferguson is now pivoting from being a pure farm machinery manufacturer into a provider of straightforward and dependable experiences that provide the best value for farmers and make their business more profitable and sustainable. This globally consistent, farmer-first approach enables customers to experience the transformation of the brand in a unique way all over the world. Complemented by a synchronized Global organization, it was only natural to launch a new logo during this unprecedented moment in our history.”
“2022 will be THE year of the new Massey Ferguson global brand,” said Francesco Murro, Massey Ferguson Vice President Global Marketing, Sales Enablement & Partnerships. “We have been thinking of a new logo since we unveiled the MF NEXT Concept at Agritechnica 2019. MF New Era started to come to life with the MF 8S launch in July 2020 followed by the launch of a full line of products these past 18 months, including our September 2021 Born to Farm Digital Event. November is an iconic month for the brand, falling exactly 63 years after the announcement of the brand’s creation and its iconic logo. As we celebrate the 175th Anniversary of Daniel Massey’s first farm equipment workshop in 2022, we felt it was the perfect time to refresh the logo while introducing a new meaningful tagline.”
The Massey Ferguson Triple Triangle – The most recognisable icon from 1958
“The triple triangle shape is a strong icon that has embodied Massey Ferguson since 1958. Our new logo is a mix between our strong heritage and fresh brand values. The three triangles overlap to represent the mutually beneficial relationship and trust between farmers, dealers and the brand,” added Mr. Murro.
“Working as one Massey Ferguson Global Team, we aim to make farming operations easier, more profitable and more sustainable across the globe,” says Alfredo Jobke, Director Marketing Global Massey Ferguson. “We want to use this new logo to invite farmers, more than ever, to become part of the Born to Farm Massey Ferguson family. We also took this opportunity to transition to a modern, sleek and flat design while giving the logo life through the interaction of three triangles interlocking one into the other. Drawing it with one single, solid, and straightforward gesture creates the appearance of movement. The flat design is very reflective of our current digital world, allowing us to manipulate the logo to bring it to life for our websites, applications on smartphones and smartwatches, or even the screens inside the machines themselves.”
“Our September 2021 Born to Farm event was the first expression of this new logo and its “Born to Farm” tagline. The great feedback and amazing enthusiasm we received, pushed us to really go for it. The new tagline conveys our unique brand value proposition and sets Massey Ferguson apart in the market and in the communities we serve,” concluded Mr. Murro.
