Double-sided flail mower with a hydraulic shift AG 180 4FARMER

The choice of agricultural machinery to help maintain green spaces is getting bigger. Currently, we can choose how we want to mow meadows, wastelands, green areas, and what we want to do with the mowed grass.

Flail mowers have become a very interesting proposition for many of our customers. Some people refer to them as "special purpose" mowers because they can also mow long grass without any problems. As the name suggests, flail mowers are mowers in which the mowing function is performed by flails placed on the cutting shaft. The cutting shaft rotates at the appropriate speed around its axis, shearing what is above the set height.

The AG 180 double-sided flail mower, commonly known as a " mulcher ", is a type of heavy double-sided mower that is suitable for mowing green areas in cities or wastelands, meadows and pastures. It is definitely a product that will also fulfill its task in municipal companies when taking care of green areas.

When you have a flail mower, it is very important to regularly check the sharpness of the cutting mechanism. This ensures that mowing will be effective and efficient.

A flail mower not only cuts grass, but also mulches it. What does it involve?

It is a technique of mowing grass/other organic materials and shredding the cut material so that it becomes a natural fertilizer that fertilizes the soil. The advantage of mulching is also preventing soil erosion, slowing down weed growth and, importantly, getting rid of unwanted mowed grass, which is often an additional problem.

We can mulch not only grass, but also crop residues, thanks to which we reduce the amount of crop residues, providing the soil with natural fertilizer and protecting against pests that live, for example, in the stems of above-ground parts of plants.

The AG 180 flail mower (mulcher) has a cutting width of 178 cm, which is the intermediate size of the four available widths. The mower can be mounted both at the front and at the back of the tractor, and also has a hydraulic shift. The drive from the tractor's power take-off shaft is 540 rpm.

When choosing a flail mower, it is very important to match the mower to the power and weight of our tractor. The AG 180 flail mower (mulcher) requires a minimum of 80 HP with a large tractor weight.
