Its robust frame, low power requirement and simple maintenance match the day-to-day needs of rural properties from Rio Grande do Sul to Mato Grosso.<\/p>\n

Fully compliant with GB\/T 10940-2008 (reciprocating mower standard) and holding the official Chinese agricultural machinery certification, this model has proven itself as a cost-effective \u201cm\u00e1quina de cortar capim tracionada\u201d across Brazilian pastures and large rural lawns.<\/p>\n

The 9GD-2.5 is a modern, heavy-duty reciprocating mower designed and priced as a direct functional replacement for farmers who currently use older North American or European-brand towed sickle-bar mowers on 20\u201350 hp tractors. It delivers the same clean scissor-cut quality that producers expect from traditional sickle-bar units, but with updated materials, wider 2.5 m coverage, and blade sections that are readily available in Brazil at lower cost.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Many customers across S\u00e3o Paulo, Goi\u00e1s, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul have switched to the 9GD-2.5 when original parts for their previous mowers became difficult or expensive to source. It is not an OEM part nor a licensed copy of any specific brand \u2014 it is an independent, fully certified (GB\/T 10940-2008) implement that simply fills the same role in the field at a more accessible price point.<\/p>\n
