Kunz Engineering AcrEase 44" Rough Cut Mower

The primary difference between these models is the blade engagement system. The MR44BE features an electric clutch with convenient switch-operated control from your tow vehicle, which extends belt life through reduced wear and provides instant on/off capability. The MR44BC utilizes a manual clutch system for simple, reliable control. Both models share the same powerful 23 HP Briggs & Stratton engine, 44-inch cutting width, heavy-duty deck construction, and cutting capabilities. Choose the MR44BE for maximum convenience and belt longevity, or the MR44BC for proven manual clutch simplicity and reliability.

The AcrEase 44-inch Rough Cut Mower is specifically designed to handle demanding vegetation that standard finish mowers cannot. It efficiently cuts thick brush, tall weeds, heavy grass, and small saplings up to 2 inches in diameter. The dual-blade rough cut system mulches vegetation effectively, making it ideal for clearing overgrown fields, maintaining trails, managing food plots, clearing pastures and orchards, maintaining ditches, and managing large estates and hunting grounds. The adjustable cutting height from 2 to 8 inches allows you to tackle various vegetation densities and terrain conditions.

Yes, one of the key advantages of the AcrEase 44-inch mower is its flexible towing configuration. You can easily switch between direct-behind towing for open field work or full-offset positioning to either side for specialized applications. The offset capability is particularly valuable for mowing along fence lines, reaching under tree canopies, maintaining edges and borders, and navigating tight spaces while maintaining visibility. The farm-style clevis hitch connection ensures superior articulation and prevents binding regardless of towing position, allowing natural movement across uneven ground.

Several accessories enhance the mower's versatility and performance. The Floatation Kit adds front and rear center tires for improved flotation and stability on uneven or soft ground, ideal for pond edges and rough terrain. The Wetlands Kit enhances performance in marshy or wet conditions by increasing surface area and stability to prevent sinking (note: not for water deeper than 2-3 inches). The Electric Lift Kit provides ultimate convenience by allowing remote deck height adjustment from your tow vehicle seat, including actuator, wiring, and remote control. Flat-Proof Tires filled with urethane foam eliminate flats and downtime, ensuring consistent performance on rough terrain.

The AcrEase 44-inch mower features a quick single-crank height adjustment system that allows you to change cutting height from 2 inches to 8 inches in seconds. This simple, efficient system requires no tools and can be adjusted between mowing areas to accommodate different vegetation types and terrain conditions. The wide height range makes the mower versatile enough to handle maintained trails at lower settings or tackle thick brush and overgrown fields at higher settings. For even greater convenience, you can upgrade to the optional Electric Lift Kit for remote height adjustment from your tow vehicle seat.

The AcrEase 44-inch Rough Cut Mower includes comprehensive commercial warranty coverage. The mower deck and components receive a 1-year commercial warranty, while the Briggs & Stratton engine is backed by an impressive 3-year commercial warranty, demonstrating the manufacturer's confidence in engine durability and longevity. This warranty coverage applies to both the MR44BE and MR44BC models. As with most equipment warranties, expendable wear parts such as blades, belts, and filter
