The EHD Rotaslasher is the benchmark for all slashers. No other brand has our history of rugged reliability and low running costs
and our confidence in the EHD is backed by an unlimited horsepower rating on the 180 & 210 models and a TWO YEAR GEARBOX
WARRANTY on all.
Built for long life in the most arduous conditions, the specifications of the EHD range have been honed over the years to satisfy the
exacting demands of owners. Feed-back from farmers, contractors and municipal users is evaluated and used to constantly improve
the EHD. You can be sure that your new EHD is built for optimum safety, performance and service life.
All EHD180 & 210 models are now supplied as standard with the design registered, Leading Edge blades which provide a cleaner cut
and longer life in most applications.
