Canycom CMX1810 2WD / 4WD Ride on Brushcutter

Canycom CMX1810 Ride on Brushcutter is a step up in the Canycom range, aimed at users who need more power, better traction control, and improved comfort for regular work on rough or sloped ground.

It builds on the capability of the CMX1404 with a stronger 18hp V-twin engine, selectable 2WD or 4WD, and a mechanical drive system that keeps traction even when travelling downhill — a real advantage when you’re working banks, uneven ground, or soft terrain.

Designed for regular all-terrain brushcutting

The CMX1810 is built for users who are cutting rough ground frequently, not just knocking areas back once or twice a year. It’s aimed at long grass, weeds, brash and uneven terrain where traction, balance and controlled drive matter more than outright speed.

Compared to lighter ride-on mowers, the CMX1810 feels planted and deliberate. It’s the sort of machine you use when you already know the ground is awkward and you want confidence rather than hoping a standard mower will cope.

Selectable 2WD or 4WD to suit the ground

A key reason buyers step up to the CMX1810 is the ability to switch between 2WD and 4WD. On flatter or firmer ground, 2WD keeps things efficient and reduces unnecessary wear. When conditions turn soft, bumpy or sloped, engaging 4WD brings all four wheels into play.

Unlike hydraulic systems, the CMX1810 uses a mechanical 4WD setup. That means drive is maintained even when travelling downhill, which is a genuine advantage on banks and uneven slopes where loss of drive can feel unsettling.

Differential lock and ground clearance

The mechanical 4WD is backed up by a differential lock and a generous 150mm of ground clearance. Combined with the larger rear tyres, this helps the CMX1810 keep moving on soft ground and over rough patches where lower machines would ground out or lose traction.

More power where the CMX1404 starts to feel light

The 18hp Briggs & Stratton V-twin gives the CMX1810 more headroom than the CMX1404 when growth gets thicker or sessions get longer. It’s not about chasing speed — it’s about the engine feeling relaxed under load and maintaining consistent cutting when conditions change.

If you’re finding the CMX1404 capable but working close to its limits, this is the natural next step before jumping to the heavier 2400-series machines.

Hydrostatic drive for controlled work on slopes

The hydrostatic transmission gives smooth, continuously variable control, which is exactly what you want when working rough ground. You can ease into heavier growth, control speed precisely on slopes, and make small adjustments without changing gears.

This type of drive suits the CMX1810’s role as a machine for awkward, changeable conditions rather than flat, open mowing.

Operator comfort for longer sessions

As workloads increase, comfort stops being a luxury and starts affecting productivity. The CMX1810 is fitted with a Grammar seat featuring adjustable height and improved cushioning, making a noticeable difference if you’re spending several hours at a time on the machine.

Simple touches like easy-access engine and rear covers also make daily checks and cleaning quicker, which matters if the machine is used regularly rather than occasionally.

Where the CMX1810 sits in the Canycom range

The CMX1810 is often the model buyers settle on when they want a serious brushcutter without going all the way to the top of the range.

• Step down to the CMX1404 if use is more occasional and terrain is demanding but manageable.
• Step up to the CMX2408 or CMX2406 if you’re contracting daily, working steeper ground, or need more outright power and safety features.

For estates, councils, and regular users dealing with mixed terrain, the CMX1810 often hits the balance between capability, comfort and sensible size.

Suffolk Mowers support, setup and aftersales

A machine like the Canycom CMX1810 is bought to solve awkward mowing problems, not to sit waiting for parts or answers. Suffolk Mowers backs that up with proper pre-sale guidance, helping you decide whether this model is the right fit for your ground, workload and frequency of use.

We support the full ownership side as well — from parts supply and servicing to ongoing advice as your needs change. If you’re weighing the CMX1810 against the CMX1404 below it, or considering whether stepping up to the CMX2408 or CMX2406 makes sense, we’ll base that conversation on real use cases, not upselling.

That means fewer surprises after delivery, clearer expectations from day one, and a brushcutter that’s matched properly to the work you’re actually doing.
