Canycom CMX2406 Ride on Brushcutter sits at the very top of the Canycom range, built for professional users who need maximum capability with proper safety systems built in.
It shares the same Honda GX690 power class as the CMX2408, but adds certified rollover protection, active slope monitoring and a heavier-duty build, making it the right choice where operators, risk assessments and steep terrain all come into play.
Built for contractors, professionals and higher-risk terrain
The CMX2406 is the Canycom you buy when the job isn’t just “tough cutting” — it’s tough cutting on ground where safety, stability and repeatable control matter. It’s aimed at contractors, councils, utilities and estates where multiple operators may use the machine and where the work includes slopes, banks and awkward access.
If the CMX2408 is the power-focused workhorse, the CMX2406 is the model you choose when you want that same output with proper safety systems and a heavier-duty build designed for daily commercial use.
Honda GX690 power with lower noise and working-day refinement
The CMX2406 is powered by a Honda GX690 V-twin, giving strong torque for brash, brambles, bracken and dense growth. What makes this version stand out is the focus on working-day practicality: improved startability, reduced noise compared to earlier models, and engine features designed for sustained load such as an oil cooler.
In real terms, it’s built to spend long hours cutting without feeling stressed, and without punishing the operator the way harsher machines can.
Safety systems that change what you can justify using on slopes
The CMX2406 is built around risk control. It includes a certified foldable ROPS and an angle tilt warning system that actively alerts the operator as slope angle increases.
Slope warning and cut-off logic
- Beeps at 15° to warn you you’re entering higher-risk territory
- Beeps faster at 23° to push you to reassess the approach
- Automatic engine stop at 60° as an extreme safety backstop
This isn’t a gimmick. For organisations that need documented safety features, or for sites with exposed banks and variable surfaces, it’s often the deciding factor over the CMX2408.
Durability and fleet-friendly design
The CMX2406 is built to take commercial abuse. It uses whole metal vehicle covers, a strengthened chassis (listed as 30% up on previous), and tyres designed to be hard to flat — a clear nod to rental fleets and heavy professional use.
It also includes practical upgrades that matter day-to-day, such as LED lights for visibility and a front bumper design intended to gather high, dense grass more effectively.
Electric deck lift, tool-less blade change and easier servicing
When you’re cutting professionally, downtime is expensive. The CMX2406 focuses on reducing the friction points:
- Electro-motorised deck lift with a memorise feature for repeatable height changes
- Tool-less blade change for quicker turnaround when blades are worn or damaged
- Exclusive shaft drive aimed at durability under constant load
These features don’t make the machine “fancier” — they make it easier to keep working when conditions are hard.
Ergonomics for control on awkward ground
The CMX2406 includes operator-position improvements: wider footrest, steering adjustment and revised seating position. On slopes and uneven terrain, this isn’t about comfort for comfort’s sake — it’s about keeping you in a stable, controlled position where you can react smoothly.
Where the CMX2406 fits in the Canycom range
This is the flagship model and the clear step up from the CMX2408.
- Step down to the CMX2408 if you want Honda GX690 power and strong traction, but don’t need certified ROPS and active slope warning systems.
- Choose the CMX2406 if you’re working commercially, have multiple operators, or need the extra safety and durability features for higher-risk sites.
If you’re buying for professional use and the site includes banks, drops, or changeable terrain, the CMX2406 is often the easier purchase to justify.
Suffolk Mowers support, setup and aftersales
The Canycom CMX2406 is a serious investment, and it’s usually bought for demanding, high-risk work where reliability and backup matter as much as outright performance. Suffolk Mowers supports that from the outset, helping you assess whether this flagship model is genuinely required over the CMX2408 based on terrain, operator use and safety expectations.
We provide full aftersales support, including servicing, parts supply and practical advice to keep the machine working safely and consistently over long working days. For contractors, councils and professional users, that ongoing support is often as important as the specification itself.
If your work involves multiple operators, steep ground or compliance-led environments, we’ll make sure the CMX2406 is set up correctly and supported properly from day one.
