We use industry-leading 21hp Honda GX630 V-Twin Engines, which offer unparalleled power and performance. All machines are fitted with a heavy-duty rear roller to prevent scalping.
The compact design of the FM Series self-powered flail topper keeps the mass low to the ground for stability and allows cutting easily beneath trees and overhanging branches.
The FM Series are fitted as standard with a centrifugal clutch, allowing for safe & efficient operation from the towing machine.
The centrifugal clutch gives automatic drive engagement and disengagement, and combined with the automatic tensioning assembly reduces maintenance by compensating for belt wear and belt loading.
Our innovative rotor design incorporates a solid 40mm diameter drive shaft right through the centre of the rotor with a structural grade 90mm diameter outer tube, onto which the flail lugs are welded in a spiral pattern.
This unique design transfers cutting power more efficiently from the engine to the cutting heads, giving a cleaner cut and better performance in tough situations. Furthermore the rotor incorporates dedicated bearing guards designed to prevent string and wire damaging the bearings.
The FM Series feature heavy duty steel ‘Y’ flails for a clean and effective cut whatever your scenario.
Simple height adjustment for ease of use and heavy duty & robust B Section drive belts for low maintenance ownership, complete the package for this class leading ATV Flail Mower.
Simple cutting height adjustment, large wheels and easy-to-use design along with the ability to fit on a variety of vehicles such as ATV, UTVs and 4x4s make these machines a pleasure to use. This versatility ensures that you can use the flail mower with multiple vehicles, making it a practical and cost-effective solution for your agricultural or landscaping needs. It’s incredibly quick and easy to hitch up and get mowing, perfect for those small maintenance tasks and keeping on top of weeds and other vegetation.
Our ATV flail mowers are durable and reliable machines, made in Britain to last.

ATV flail mowers are a key piece of agricultural equipment which have been designed to attach to a range of vehicles such as an ATV, 4×4 or UTV.
