DESCRIPTION

Take control of your landscape with the rugged precision of the Farmer Helper FME Series Commercial Flail Mower a light commercial-grade solution built for mowing grass, weeds, brush, and small saplings on uneven terrain. Whether you're maintaining parks, highways, orchards, or open fields, this flail mower delivers clean, consistent results with minimal debris throw, making it ideal for high-traffic and sensitive areas.

Engineered for tractors with 30 to 65 horsepower, the FME Series features a reinforced box channel frame and deck to prevent twisting and ensure long-term durability. Its powerful 65 HP cast-iron gearbox and multiple drive belts provide reliable power transfer to the blades, while the reverse rotor rotation enhances cutting efficiency and mulching performance.

Choose between standard hammer blades or optional “Y” blades for tailored cutting capabilities. The adjustable rear roller with mud scraper bar allows you to fine-tune cutting height from 0″ to 6″, while the large deck offset enables close mowing around trees, fences, and other obstacles. With a balanced rotor shaft and under-deck clump busters, the FME Series ensures smooth operation and a professional-grade finish every time.
