SCH FM48 48" Towed ATV Flail Mower

IMPORTANT: The first two photographs show the new version of the FM48, with its improved wheel positioning for a close-to-edge cut. The other photographs show the previous version of the machine.

The FM48 is a powerful, strong, towed, long grass cutter, with a working width of 1220mm (48").

The mower is powered by a 13Hp Honda petrol engine complete with electric start. The flails are free floating on a chain link to the rotor shaft. The tow bar has two operating positions, one in the centre of the machine and the other to one side where it is beneficial not to run on the standing growth before cutting. The throttle control and engine emergency stop safety switch can be easily reached from the tractor seat. The transport wheels are situated at the side of the machine.

The safety of the operator is very much in mind when designing this type of machine. Guards are provided to stop the operator's feet accidentally being offered to the flails.

Suitable for towing behind 18Hp plus tractors, ATVs and quads.
The one piece rear roller prevents scalping
