How big can a flail mower cut?
The Farmry LFS61 offers a 61-inch cutting width, which is ideal for clearing large areas efficiently. Whether you're cutting brush, weeds, or rough material, this flail mower is built for rough cutting applications while maintaining optimal cutting performance on both flat ground and uneven surfaces.
How much horsepower do you need for a flail mower?
This model is made for tractors with 15 to 35 horsepower. It comes with a pto shaft included, and the external gearbox making ensures a reliable power transfer from your tractor to the mower, giving you the strength to handle tough jobs with ease.
What is a flail mower best for?
Flail mowers are perfect for managing rough terrain, overgrowth, and dense vegetation while still gentle enough to leave turf grass relatively undisturbed. Their aggressive cutting design works well in the down position, offering better ground contact and more thorough mulching in challenging areas.
What should I check on my tractor's PTO before using a flail mower?
Before connecting the LFS61 flail mower, make sure your tractor has a 540 RPM PTO output, a Category 1 three-point hitch, and enough horsepower (15–35 HP). Also, inspect the PTO shaft length and safety shield—they must be compatible and properly greased. Always disengage the PTO before adjusting or servicing the mower to avoid accidents. Proper PTO setup ensures safe, smooth power transfer and reduces stress on both the tractor and mower.
Can a flail mower handle rocks?
While it's best to avoid rocks to prevent wear, the LFS61 is designed for smooth performance even in rugged conditions. Its sturdy construction and flexible blade system help it absorb shock and glide over obstacles much better than conventional rotary cutters or deck mowers.
