Advantages of tracked shredders

Compared to the more common wheeled flail mowers, tracked flail mowers such as the Zanon MTZ 860C are advantageous for:

• Greater traction and stability on difficult terrain : Tracked vehicles offer excellent traction and stability on muddy, slippery, or rocky surfaces. They don't slip and are less likely to sink into the ground than wheeled flail mowers.
• Work along impervious areas: these tracked flail mowers can operate on slopes, ditches, embankments and uncultivated land where wheeled machines would hardly advance in a stable and safe manner.
• Less physical effort in handling : being more stable, a tracked shredder does not require any particular holding effort from the operator.

Scope of use

Below are some examples of how to use the Zanon MTZ 860C:

• Orchards, vineyards and olive groves : ideal for shredding grass between rows
• Uncultivated Land : for the reclamation of abandoned areas or those invaded by brambles/undergrowth
• Hilly or sloping areas (up to 25%) : thanks to the ability of Zanon MTZ 860 to overcome slopes with ease
• Cleaning roadsides, ditches, and embankments: ideal for localized and precise events.
• Maintenance of green areas: especially parks, agricultural land, and rustic gardens.
