Orec Rabbit RM830 Single-Cylinder Ride-On Brushcutter with Hydrostatic Drive

With its low stance, wide track, powerful engine, agricultural tread tyres and diff lock, this commercial-duty ride-on brushcutter from Orec will breeze its way across the sort of severely adverse terrain that would defeat a conventional tractor mower!

The engine at the core of the Orec Rabbit RM830 Ride-On Brushcutter is a GXV390-series model from Honda. This substantial, 389cc-displacement four-stroke motor outputs a muscular 10.2hp, and benefits from the incorporation of the Japanese power giant’s efficiency optimising, noise limiting and emission cutting overhead-valve technology.

The Orec Rabbit RM830 Single-Cylinder Ride-On Brushcutter might be a serious bit of kit, but it’s nevertheless great fun to drive, with its hydrostatic transmission – hand operated – enabling smooth, intuitive adjustment of the ground speed in both forward and reverse.

Two heavy-duty, swing-tip mulching blades will take everything from dense, overgrown grass through to well-established woody scrub in their stride; a rack-and-pinion system means the steering is light and ultra-responsive.

The high-spec features continue – you’ll also get a fully suspended seat, which is vital when operating on the type of tricky terrain for which the RM830 has been designed.

The most compact of Orec’s ride-on brushcutters, this model has an 82cm working width.
