SCH FM48 - Flail Mower 48"

Description

Built for performance. Designed for safety. Engineered for power.

The SCH FM48 heavy-duty flail mower has been purpose-designed to meet the demands of users requiring a larger, more robust cutting unit for higher horsepower towing vehicles (18HP and above). Ideal for use with ATVs, quads, and compact tractors, this unit offers powerful cutting capability, enhanced safety features, and flexible towing options for professional and heavy-duty applications.

Key Benefits:

• Exceptional Cutting Power:
  Driven by a reliable 13Hp Honda petrol engine with electric start, the FM48 delivers strong and consistent performance even in thick, overgrown grass. The free-floating flails are mounted on chain links to the rotor shaft, enabling efficient cutting and ground-following flexibility.

• Wider Cutting Coverage:
  With a 1220mm (48") working width, this flail mower covers more ground in less time—perfect for larger areas such as paddocks, meadows, and rough terrain.

• Versatile Towing Configuration:
  The adjustable tow bar offers central or offset positioning, allowing users to avoid flattening tall grass before cutting—maximising cutting efficiency and protecting natural growth.

• Operator Safety First:
  Designed with operator safety in mind, the FM48 features protective foot guards and a built-in emergency stop cord for rapid engine shutdown if needed. The throttle and safety stop switch are conveniently located in the driver’s seat for safe and easy operation.

• Easy Transport and Manoeuvrability:
  Side-mounted transport wheels provide excellent stability, making it quick and effortless to move the unit between locations.

• Ready for ATV and Quad Use:
  Supplied with a 50mm ball hitch as standard for easy attachment to most towing vehicles.
  (A Clevis hitch version is also available - please choose which version you require via the drop down menu)

Applications: Ideal for estates, paddocks, pastureland, woodland rides, bridle paths, and other rough terrain maintenance tasks requiring a durable and high-capacity mower.
