Who is Farmer-Helper?
Farmer Helper Machinery Co., Ltd (FHM) was established in 2009. The factory area is more than 20,000 square meters and houses 4 Metal laser cutting machines and more than 80 processing machines.
FHM manufactures a full range of high-quality implements for small to medium-sized tractor owners across the world. Farmer’s Helper has become an integral manufacturing premise for agricultural machines. Our team’s priority is customer success and satisfaction. We constantly improve our machines to meet customer demands and expectations.
Experience the power and precision of the Ditch Bank Flail Mower, a heavy-duty solution designed to tackle heavy brush, including grasses, debris, sticks, vines, branches, and other wooded materials up to 4 inches in diameter. The mower head, attached to a hydraulic arm, can pivot up to 90 degrees for hedge or hillside work or down 55 degrees for ditch or bank work, ensuring versatility in various applications.
When connected to the optional 4-way hydraulic control valve with a hydraulic float, this flail mower adapts to the contours of the terrain for a smooth and even cut. Unlike traditional mowers that throw grass, the flail mower cuts finely and leaves the cuttings on the ground, making it an ideal choice for sensitive areas where debris could cause damage. This is why the Ditch Bank Flail Mower is a popular option for highway mowing and park maintenance, as it minimizes the risk of throwing objects during cutting.
Upgrade to the Ditch Bank Flail Mower and discover the difference in power, precision, and versatility for all your landscaping and groundskeeping needs.
FLOAT AND NON-FLOAT CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION: The Float controller serves two functions. First, if your tractor has only one remote hydraulic port (2 hoses) you can use the float control as a splitter. 4 hoses from the machine plug into the controller and the controller is powered by the single port from your tractor. You can mount the control within reach of the tractor’s driver seat. The other function of this controller is you can plug the tilt cylinder into the float port and the mower will follow the contour of uneven ground.
Float controller can do the splitter function and float function.
The non-float controller can only be used for the splitter function.

Details of Ditch Bank Flail Mowers:
Overall Width: The Farmer-Helper AGF series has an overall width of 72.5″ to 88.5″ depending on the size of the unit.
Cutting Width: The Farmer-Helper AGF series has a tilling width of 55″ to 71″ depending on the size of the unit.
Weight: The Farmer-Helper AGF series has a weight of 1318 lbs to 1500 lbs depending on the size of the unit.
HP Requirements at PTO: The Farmer-Helper AGF series requires 45 – 85 PTO horsepower depending on the size of the unit.

Housing Material Thickness: The Farmer-Helper AGF series has a housing of 5mm thick.
Side Plate Thickness: The Farmer-Helper AGF series has a side plate thickness of 5/16″.
Blade Type: The Farmer-Helper AGF series uses a heavy-duty hammer blade. Each hammer blade weighs 2lbs 12 oz made of cast steel (cast steel is much more durable than cast iron). Use the hammer blades for clearing saplings (4″ diameter or less) and for grasses.
Number of Blades: The Farmer-Helper AGF series uses 12 – 16 hammer blades depending on the size of the unit.
Precision Blade Overlap: On the Farmer-Helper AGF series the blades are staggered precisely with no gap in the mowing area. Blade overlap is important to achieve an even cutting result.
Rotor Rotation – Reverse: The rotor spins in the opposite direction as the wheels of the tractor when traveling forward. This allows the blades to shear the material as it is folded forward by the mowers. The material is then thrown up and over the rotor.
Rotor Tube Diameter: 5″ – Heavy-duty steel tubing for long life.
Balanced Rotor Tube: The rotor tube is balanced to reduce vibration and ensures that the mower runs smooth, and reduces wear on the bearings.
Hitch Type: Category 2 standard 3-point.
Pivot Offset From Center Mount: This feature allows for an offset from the center to the right of the tractor. This feature is helpful for mowing around fences, buildings; walkways, etc. From the center of the PTO, the mower extends 68″ to 84″ depending on the size of the unit.
Hydraulic Offset: The hydraulic cylinder permits the carrier frame to be moved under your command. This permits you to control the cutting position of the mower. Designed so that you can get around rows, trees, fence lines, or whatever else is in your path. This is connected to a Remote Hydraulic designed to power the cylinder (also known as a 2-way valve) or the rear remote on your tractor design to power the cylinder. Hydraulic Requirements: Hydraulic sources must be constant flow for powering Control Valve. We recommend the use of Front Loader Style Control Valve with Float Option. Float spool connected to the vertical pivoting cylinder will allow the mower to float and naturally follow the ground contour.
Drive Belts: The Farmer-Helper AGF series uses 4 belts.
Gearbox Rating: Up to 85 hp. Heavy-duty proved oil bath gearbox for long life.
Driveline / PTO Shaft: Shear Bolt PTO Shaft for Standard 1-3/8” 6-Spline PTO
Finish: Baked-on powder coat, powder coat is superior to paint.
