From top to flail

Rain, warmth and sunshine have combined to promote rapid grass growth and now there's the job of choosing how to cut it. The Wessex Country range offers probably the widest choice with toppers, finishing and flail mowers designed to work with an ATV/UTV or compact tractor. For the needs of the smallholder, private estate owners and groundscare contractors there is a solution on hand.

The Wessex Country AT110 ATV topper gets you off to a good start if you're working on a budget. Designed specifically for the ATV/utility vehicle user it offers a 1.1m working width and Briggs & Stratton engine.

For a more formal lawn the Wessex Country FM finishing mowers feature 4 wheels for a premium finish, with overlapping rotors eliminating uncut strips. There are four working widths to choose from and the mowers are well suited to compact tractors from 12hp. The belt adjustment is simple as is the cut height and the mower is fully guarded to HSE specifications.

Where you have dense vegetation, long grass and woodland rides the Country FL series flail mower has a reputation as a tough performer. It features heavy hammer flails to pulverise tough material while the rear roller helps to maintain an even cutting height. Suited to compact tractors from 15hp the machine can be used in-line or offset. Just the job for the discerning smallholder.
