SC18H Overview

The Bobcat® SC18H sod cutter’s innovative, hydrostatic, variable-speed transmission lets you power through the cut while its heavy-duty, long-lasting, cast-iron gear case and hydraulic cooling system stand up to the toughest demands – season after season.  

  • A user-friendly, color-coded interface makes it easy to adjust blade depth and angle for precise cutting – no matter the soil condition.  
  • Unlock the pneumatic rear caster wheel to easily and tightly maneuver around landscaping, then lock it for unmatched precision on straightaways.  
  • Featuring ultra-low vibration technology, the rubber isolation mount absorbs shock and machine vibration before they ever reach your hands, saving your arms from fatigue.
