Baumalight Skid Steer Boom Mower

A Baumalight boom mower is designed for mowing and vegetation control in difficult-to-reach areas such as roadside ditches, fence lines, embankments, field edges, trails, and drainage areas. The extended boom allows operators to reach vegetation without repeatedly repositioning the skid steer.

The Baumalight SWA/SWF Series offers approximately 6 to 14 feet of reach, depending on the model. For example, the SWA540 provides about 6 feet of reach, while the SWF580 provides up to 14 feet, making the series suitable for different roadside and ditch-mowing applications.

Baumalight SWA/SWF boom mowers generally require 15–35 GPM of hydraulic flow, with requirements varying by model and cutting head. Operators should verify their skid steer's auxiliary hydraulic flow, pressure, and case-drain requirements before selecting a model.

Depending on the model, Baumalight boom mowers are available with cutting widths ranging from approximately 42 to 60 inches. The SWA/SWF Series includes flail mower heads for grass, weeds, and brush, while models such as the SWA750 are available with a rotary cutter head.

Compatibility depends on the specific model. The SWA/SWF Series is designed for skid steers ranging from approximately 4,500 to 16,000 pounds, with larger boom models requiring heavier carriers. Hydraulic flow, machine weight, mounting configuration, and auxiliary hydraulics should all be checked before purchase.

Yes. The Baumalight SWA/SWF boom mower uses a hydraulic motor and requires the case drain to be properly connected. Baumalight specifically warns that operating without the case drain connected can result in hydraulic motor damage.
