Farmer Helper FH-AGF Standard Ditch Bank Flail Mower | 55" to 71" Working Width | 45-85HP for Tractor

Experience the power and precision of the Ditch Bank Flail Mower, a heavy-duty solution designed to tackle heavy brush, including grasses, debris, sticks, vines, branches, and other wooded materials up to 4 inches in diameter. The mower head, attached to a hydraulic arm, can pivot up to 90 degrees for hedge or hillside work or down 55 degrees for ditch or bank work, ensuring versatility in various applications.

When connected to the optional 4-way hydraulic control valve with a hydraulic float, this flail mower adapts to the contours of the terrain for a smooth and even cut. Unlike traditional mowers that throw grass, the flail mower cuts finely and leaves the cuttings on the ground, making it an ideal choice for sensitive areas where debris could cause damage. This is why the Ditch Bank Flail Mower is a popular option for highway mowing and park maintenance, as it minimizes the risk of throwing objects during cutting.

Upgrade to the Ditch Bank Flail Mower and discover the difference in power, precision, and versatility for all your landscaping and groundskeeping needs.

FLOAT AND NON-FLOAT CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION: The Float controller serves two functions. First, if your tractor has only one remote hydraulic port (2 hoses) you can use the float control as a splitter. 4 hoses from the machine plug into the controller and the controller is powered by the single port from your tractor. You can mount the control within reach of the tractor’s driver seat. The other function of this controller is you can plug the tilt cylinder into the float port and the mower will follow the contour of uneven ground.

Float controller can do the splitter function and float function.

The non-float controller can only be used for the splitter function
