RCVIX TT1200 Tracked Tank Remote Mower: A Field Guide

The TT1200 is a tracked tank remote mower built for the hardest ground — scrubland, reclamation sites, steep rough pasture and utility corridors where lighter machines bog down. Its welded tank-style tracked chassis carries a wide cutting head across terrain that would stop a wheeled or compact unit, processing brush, brambles and woody regrowth that defeat a conventional deck. Twin-blade 1200 mm tank for the highest hourly output.

Contractors and landowners reach for the TT1200 where the job is measured in hectares of hostile ground rather than tidy lawns: clearing brush, holding firebreaks, and keeping power-line and pipeline corridors open without putting a rider on the machine. One operator covers ground that would take a brush-cutter crew days, from a safe distance and with no exposure to slope, noise or thrown debris.

Key specifications

The TT1200 pairs a 1200mm (Twin Blade) cutting head with a heavy tracked undercarriage rated for 60° of climb. The low ground pressure of the wide tracks means it crosses soft, rutted or rocky ground that would strand a wheeled mower, while the rated slope lets it work faces a ride-on cannot attempt. Every dimension is chosen for recovery and reclamation work, not lawn finish.

With a Hybrid Fuel-Electric, Dual Generation powerplant and a working rate around ≤7200 m²/h, the machine sustains productive cutting through a full shift. The hydraulically lifted head moves from 1 cm up to 1-20cm (Electric Adjustment) so you can skim a verge or lift over rocks, roots and guardrails without stopping, and the 500m Remote Range, High/Low Speed remote system keeps the operator 20–50 m clear of the work.

Built for

• Land reclamation. Overgrown plots, bramble thickets and woody regrowth are flattened and mulched in a single pass, resetting the ground for planting, grazing or access. The tank chassis floats over rough, rutted soil instead of digging in.
• Steep rough pasture. Sides too steep and tussocky for a tractor are cleared safely from the remote, with no rider at fall risk. The wide tracks hold the slope where a compact mower would slide.
• Utility corridors. Power-line, pipeline and railway verges stay clear of vegetation that threatens infrastructure; the tank chassis handles the rutted access tracks that defeat lighter machines. Crews keep rights-of-way open without hand-cutting.
• Firebreaks. A continuous low-fuel strip is cut quickly along a defined line, reducing wildfire spread on estates, plantations and interface zones. The machine holds the line on ground too steep for a tractor.
• Erosion-prone slopes. The wide tracks spread load so the ground is not churned, protecting soil on banks and dam faces. Cut material is mulched in place rather than left as a windrow that washes away.
• Large estates and forests. Big areas of mixed grass and scrub are covered at ≤7200 m²/h rather than by slow hand crews. One machine replaces several operators and removes them from snakes, ticks and uneven ground.

Why this machine

Tank rigidity. The welded tracked chassis carries the head and a heavy frame without flex, so cut quality holds on rough ground where a lighter deck would bounce and tear. Blades stay engaged through dips, ruts and roots.

Wide-track grip. A broad footprint and 60° of climb keep the machine planted where others slide; low ground pressure protects soft soil and lets it cross wet, loose ground that strands wheeled units.

Productivity. At ≤7200 m²/h the TT1200 covers ground a brush-cutter crew cannot match in a day, turning a multi-day clearance into a single shift. Fewer operators and no rider fatigue lower the true cost per hectare.

Remote safety. Up to 500m Remote Range, High/Low Speed keeps the operator clear of noise, slope and thrown debris, with an emergency stop and dead-man halt that stop the head and drive instantly. One person manages the whole job from a safe standing point.

How it compares

On rough, sloped or remote ground the tank remote mower is the only option that is both productive and safe — which is why reclamation and utility contractors standardise on it.

Operation & maintenance

Before you start. Inspect track tension and idlers, fuel and engine oil, remote-control batteries, and test the emergency stop on flat ground. Walk the line for wire, large stones and hidden obstacles the head could strike.

Daily care. Knock out packed soil from the undercarriage, check the track for cuts and embedded debris, and inspect the cutting head after each job. Grease the listed pivots and keep the deck-lift pins free of packed soil.

Undercarriage. Keep idlers and sprockets clean; a stone jammed in the track tears it. Re-tension after heavy use and after long transport, and store the machine under cover. Stabilise fuel for winter and disconnect the battery.

FAQ

What ground can it take? Rutted, rocky and soft ground that strands wheeled units, plus slopes to 60°. It is built for recovery work, not fine lawn finish.

How much area per day? Rough scrub at around ≤7200 m²/h; flat or managed grass is far more. Output scales with operator experience and terrain.

Is it too heavy for soft soil? The wide tracks spread the load — ground pressure is lower than a ride-on, so it crosses wet ground instead of sinking.

Remote range? Up to 500m Remote Range, High/Low Speed line of sight; keep the antenna clear of the operator’s body for best reception.

Transport weight? 370kg net; a standard trailer or low loader with a ramp loads it in minutes.

Fuel and uptime? A Hybrid Fuel-Electric, Dual Generation plant runs a full shift on a single tank; plan refuelling into the job rather than at the end of the day.
