The rigid quarter-inch steel deck and double-edge blades handle hay, brush, and saplings up to 4 inches in diameter. Operates forward and reverse. Front chain shield reduces flying debris.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You maintain pastures, hayfields, road shoulders, or utility corridors with grass and light brush
- You need a high-productivity mowing attachment that's simple to maintain and easy to source parts for
- Your operation requires regular acreage mowing on medium to large skid steers
⛔ Skip if…
- You're cutting woody brush over 2 inches in diameter regularly — a brush cutter or mulcher is a better fit
- Discharge direction is a concern near structures or people — a flail mower has contained discharge
🔍 Also consider…
- Brush cutter if you regularly encounter heavy overgrowth and saplings
- Flail mower for safer, finer-cut results near roads or structures
