The Frontier ™ FL12S Series Flail Mower is built with the durability to handle tough jobs like cutting brush, but the versatility to leave turf grass with a finished look.
With the capability to perform in both Grooming Mower and Rough Cutting applications, the Flail Mower is perfect for a wide range of jobs such as waterways, fields, taller brush, ditches, banks, flat ground, hedgerows, pond maintenance, and turf grass.
The ability to have one implement to complete a variety of jobs means that operators can spend their time getting work done instead of spending time switching between implements.
In addition to covering a wide range of jobs, after the first pass, operators will be driving over clean land, sparing your tractor from constantly going against rough material.
Hammer Blades for a Range of Conditions
The FL12S Series models come standard with hammer blades. These are great all-purpose durable blades, providing aggressive cutting for tougher conditions while also delivering a high-quality cut on maintained fields.
Hydraulic Side Shift for Hard-to-Reach Areas
The FL12S Series model comes standard with hydraulic side shift, giving operators the ability to slide left of center 13.5” and fully extended to 115”, all from the seat of their tractor. Side shift is ideal for trimming along walls, buildings, trees with low-lying branches, fences, or orchards, making those hard-to-reach areas an easy cut.
Rear Hitch Float Feature
While in work position, the pin can be removed allowing the cylinder to float so the implement can follow the contours of the ground.
Roller with Adjustable Cutting Heights
The roller can be adjusted into three different cutting height positions (low, medium, and high). These adjustments can help prevent blades from digging into the soil with changing conditions. Even in rough terrain, the roller can help achieve a smooth performance.
