The Billy Goat SC181HG features specially designed knobbly wheels for golf applications, ideal for softer touch, bent grass and shallow cut applications. The sod cutter is built upon the most rugged foundation in the industry with a superstructure frame featuring 23kg of steel and supports a robust drive and cut system.
With variable ground speeds - forward and reverse - and intuitive controls this versatile machine is the perfect workhorse for the weekend warrior to the seasoned pro.
Best in class "Set and Forget™" blade depth adjustment is set with a single lever and clamp at the user's operating position. It saves time and provides precise cutting depths up to 2.5 inches for tasks including relocating sod, enlarging flower beds, creating new planting areas, as well as concrete flat work or other hardscape projects. The standard, rear swivel caster is perfect for curved work and locks for straight cutting.
Operators will also appreciate the multiple, oversized handle isolation mounts that absorb vibration and offer fatigue-free operation for small to large projects alike.The variable speed hydrostatic drive transmission allows operators to tailor cutting speed according to the ground condition, thereby preserving sod quality while maximising productivity. Another benefit of the drive is the fastest transport speed of any unit on the market; over 3.5mph. The drive controls are comfortably under-mounted at your fingertips versus paddle or throttle styles. An adjustable reverse speed allows maneuvering out of tight areas easily and quickly, without tearing sod - or your rotator cuff!
Coupled to 4.3hp Honda power with a three year engine warranty, the Billy Goat SC181HG turf cutter operates and handles like a dream, meeting every user's unique project with reliability, simplicity and precise cut performance. It is a firm favourite for irrigation, landscape, hardscape, sports field, flatwork and golf customers.

Founded in 1967 as a subsidiary of Clipper Manufacturing, Billy Goat became independent in 1969. Today, the company is owned and operated by two generations of the Coates family. In 1974, Billy Goat moved to its current location just outside of Kansas City, Missouri, USA. Since that time, the company has expanded its facilities three times; the most recent being a 20,000 square foot addition occupied by welding and fabrication.
The company's reputation is one of durability, integrity, and innovation, not only designing for ease of use, but aggressively testing what it designs. It is not unusual to see Goats over 20 years old still in operation.
Since 1993, the company has made significant investments in benefits programmes, training, tooling and equipment, and facilities to make it more competitive in the future. Billy Goat is proud of its heritage, its people, its products, and its community. Rather than rest on its laurels, though, Billy Goat enthusiastically continues to look for ways to make cleaning up less of a chore.
