The fact that customers can make real savings by mowing less often makes it the perfect choice for those working to tight budgets and timeframes . So , let ’ s look at why this is the case . What is it exactly that makes this revolutionary and innovative machine so popular ?
To start with it offers a completely new cutting concept to triple mowing . It mimics the size , cutting width and manoeuvrability of a traditional triple cylinder mower .
Easily tackling the most challenging environments – from the widest open spaces to the narrowest verges – with greater ground contour control , it ’ s simple-to-operate and makes light work of parklands , roadside verges , housing estate green spaces and other grassed areas . Plus , the flail cutting heads are able to cut long and short grass , wet or dry , and leave a much better after-cut appearance than a rotary mower .
What ’ s more , an innovative cylinder attachment gives the front-facing flail a dual purpose , and a machine that was originally intended as a flail mower can now cut as a cylinder mower to also deliver a premium finish on playing fields and sports grounds .
