73" Caroni Flail Mower, 3-Point
Whether clearing undergrowth or simply trimming the fields, this flail mower hitches to the back of any type of tractor. With its adjustable capabilities, this 3-point cutter uses its rear roller and scraper to make any cutting height precise while keeping the cutter clean. A steel safeguard comes standard with each PTO flail mower to protect the driver while the rotor is running.
This flail cutter comes with a B rotor, which is made to cut down bushes and undeveloped fields. It can even be used to shred stalks after crop harvesting. This flail mower is ideal for tractors ranging between 30 to 60 HP.

Additional Information:
I'm on my third season with this mower and would recommend it to anyone considering the purchase. If you're only cutting grass, this machine is far superior to a single spindle rotary cutter. Cut quality is good, especially when the mower cut height is set low. I'm running this on a JD 2038R (about 30-31 PTO HP) and have no power issues in 2-3 ft, moderately thick grass. I would guess that a tractor with slightly less than 30 hp would do fine in reasonable applications. For the best cut quality, you will want to mow when the grass is 1.0-1.5 ft max. Also be aware that the stock belts (qty:3) are garbage. I got about 6-8 hours of use out of them when they burnt up. You'll know because you can smell the rubber. I replaced them with Gates Predator BP43 belts and have over 25 hours of use with no issues. Total hours on my mower are around 35 hours at the time of this review. No replacement parts required so far, just regular greasing and blowing it off after every use. Hopefully it will last for many more seasons. — Josh from AL
