2026 BOBCAT SC18H

BOBCAT SC18H―SOD CUTTER Legendary performance meets new transmission technology for easier-to-control, smoother, and more stable sod cutting. The Bobcat® SC18H sod cutter’s innovative, hydrostatic, variable-speed transmission lets you power through the cut while its heavy-duty, long-lasting, cast-iron gear case and hydraulic cooling system stand up to the toughest demands – season after season. HIGHLIGHTS • A user-friendly, color-coded interface makes it easy to adjust blade depth and angle for precise cutting – no matter the soil condition. • Unlock the pneumatic rear caster wheel to easily and tightly maneuver around landscaping, then lock it for unmatched precision on straightaways. • Featuring ultra-low vibration technology, the rubber isolation mount absorbs shock and machine vibration before they ever reach your hands, saving your arms from fatigue. FEATURES & BENEFITS PRECISION CUTTING UP TO 2.5 INCHES DEEP Efficiently complete the job with Bobcat sod cutters. You can cut sod up to 2.5 inches thick at a width of 18 inches. HONDA GX160 GAS ENGINE The Honda GX160 engine provides the durability and reliability you need for daily sod-cutting duties. The engine is easy starting, fuel efficient and ideal for heavy-duty, sod-cutting applications. POWERFUL HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION The hydrostatic transmission delivers the ultimate in productivity. Cut sod at speeds as high as 2 mph or move the machine into position with travel speeds up to 4mph. ANGLED BLADE VERSATILITY In heavy, challenging soils, you can increase the blade angle up to 10 degrees, which helps maintain optimal ground contact for efficient cutting. CAST-IRON TURF TREAD WHEELS Turf tread wheels provide the traction you need to efficiently dig into sod while minimizing turf tearing and damage. SIGNATURE CAST-IRON GEARBOX Meticulously engineered for superior strength and durability, the cast-iron gearbox is built to last and designed for maximum uptime. STURDY FRONT BUMPER A tough front bumper guards your machine as you lean it forward for the cut; it also protects from unexpected contact with jobsite obstacles. OPTIONAL LASER-CLAD BLADE The reinforced edge of a laser-clad blade keeps its shape longer, sharpening itself as it wears down. Depending on working conditions, it can last up to 2.5 times longer than a standard blade. It’s a must-have for abrasive, sandy soils. REVERSE OPERATION The ability to reverse the machine gives you added maneuverability in tight areas and other challenging jobsites. RUBBER VIBRATION ISOLATORS AND RUBBER HANDLE KNOBS Bobcat sod cutters feature rubber vibration isolators that that enhance operator comfort and reduce fatigue. Rubber handle knobs further enhance the operator experience. SWIVELING REAR WHEEL The caster wheel supports easy turning and maneuverability for precise operation. HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION The variable speed hydrostatic transmission smoothly drives the machine at the operators command. Whether your cutting sod or just moving the machine into place for work, the variable transmission supports smooth, stable and precise operations as well as seamless transitions from forward to reverse. INTUITIVE CONTROLS All the controls you need for precise sod-cutting are simple to use and within easy reach. Operators can easily change the blade depth and angle for precise sod cutting. The operator's control panel features color-coded illustrations that help turn even novice operators into effective sod cutters in little time. BLADE ENGAGEMENT LEVER The blade engagement lever allows the operator to engage the blade independently of the traction drive.
