Description
AGFN takes our AGF mower and adds an openable rear deck for faster mowing when you do not need fine mulching (it is also nice for changing blades) a holder for your hoses when not attached and a floating right side 3-point connection to allow the mower greater flex when following the contours of the ground. AGFN verge flail muchers are super heavy duty mowers designed for Cat-II tractors. They feature very heavy 43 ounce cutting blades that can chop heavy brush including grasses, debris, sticks, vines, branches and other wooded materials up to 4” in Diameter. The mower head is attached to a hydraulic arm allowing you to swing the mulcher beyond your tractors wheels. The head may be pivoted hydraulically up 90 degrees for hedge or hill side work or down 55 degrees for ditch or bank work. Connect it to our optional 4-way hydraulic control valve with a hydraulic float and the mulcher will follow the contours of the terrain.

HP Requirements at PTO: The VL-AGF N160 requires 50 – 85 PTO horsepower.
Cutting Height: The VL-AGF series has a 1/4″ – 6″ Adjustable to meet various height requirements
Housing Material Thickness: The VL-AGF series has a housing of 5/16″ thick.
Side Plate Thickness: The VL-AGF series has a side plate thickness of 5/16″.
Blade Type: The VL-AGF series uses heavy duty hammer blade. Each hammer blade weighs 2lbs 12 oz made of cast steel (cast steel is much more durable than cast iron). The Use the hammer blades for clearing saplings (5″ diameter or less) and for grasses.
Number of Blades: The VL-AGF N160 uses 14 hammer blades.
Precision Blade Overlap: On the VL-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.
Drive Belts: The VL-AGF series uses 4 belts.
Gearbox Rating: Up to 85 hp. Heavy duty proven oil bath gearbox for long life.
Driveline / PTO Shaft: Shear Bolt PTO Shaft for Standard 1-3/8” 6-Spline PTO
