Description for flail mower:
The Farmer-Helper EFGC Series (Heavy Duty) Flail Mower is an option if you are working on grass or brush. Ideal for an orchard, nursery, vineyard, in the greenhouse or for gardening. With its fast blade tip speed and interchangeable blades, it is perfect for your grounds keeping tasks. If you need to maintain more dense areas, install the hammer blades and you will be able to cut and mulch wooded material up to 3 inches in diameter. This model is great for acreage larger than 15 acres.
Flail Mowers are useful for jobs where you are cutting grass on the uneven ground, high grass, weeds, brush, and small saplings. A flail mower doesn’t throw grass, instead, it cuts finely and leaves the cuttings on the ground where it was cut making it an excellent choice for those places where you could cause damage by throwing debris. Highway mowing and park maintenance often use flail mowers because they are less likely to throw objects during cutting.

Blade Type: The Farmer-Helper EFGC series uses a standard hammer blade. Each hammer blade weighs 1 lb. 11 oz made of cast steel (cast steel is much more durable than cast iron). Use the hammer blades for clearing saplings (3″ diameter or less), and for grasses.

Precision Blade Overlap: On the Farmer-Helper EFGC 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.

Just got my mower the other day. So far I have used it about an hour. So far so good. I found it was well packed in the welded steel cage. Fortunately I had a grinder with cutoff wheel. Although I found the videos online and the abundant instructions, it was still difficult to tell how the uprights should be attached to the mower body. I see that some improvements have been made in response to previous comments; the stand now bolts into a threaded reinforced area rather than trying to get the nuts up behind the leading edge guards. And there is a hole in the belt cover to grease the bearing. My biggest complaint about 5ge instructions is not knowing how much gear oil is needed, I found that I needed about 1 liter, not a gallon jug shown in one of the pictures. My most serious complaint is about the black plastic the pto shield. It doesn’t have enough flair for man sized hands to get in there and squeeze the pto lock mechanism. I wish it has a flip up metal cover similar to the tractor. Alternately maybe a pto shaft with collar locks would be easier. Honestly Inthink Inspent more time fighting the pto shaft than mowing. However the mowing I did do was really good. I have pasture that has not been mowed for several years, and is now sprouting Douglas fir and alders along with Scott’s broom and blackberry. So far it’s made easy work of the vegetation. Once I get a hang of the pto shaft, I won’t dread taking to mower off to use another implement.
I have twenty acres or so that have become very heavily overgrown. I bought the EFGC155 with hammer blades to beat the brush into nothingness. I've never had a flail mower before, so I immediately burned up a set of belts. I now always keep a spare set handy. Now that I have the hang of the mower, I have been clearing like a demon! I basically just drive into the brush with my blade down low to push everything over, and the mower grinds it into barkdust. I am very happy with this flail mower. I'm operating it on a 35 hp tractor with no difficulties.
Very impressed so far, i performed a torque audit and a bearing break-in procedure before putting any serious load on the machine, It cut with ease, actually much quieter then i was anticipating, this unit is a beast. With proper maintenance, this unit will outlast me and my son's son/daughter.
Works fantastic, gives a decent finish cut and grinds up everything, brush, branches and bark.
Great price. Fast shipping. Quality workmanship. Very pleased. Highly reccomend.
I was suprised to see how heavy duty this mower is built. Its a very nice machine and will last a very long time. Do not be afraid to buy this product!
