Flail Mowers For Cutting Heavier Grass And Scrub
What a lawn mower can’t handle, a flail mower does. A flail mower is an ideal compact tractor attachment and if you have a large garden with heavy grass or scrub then it’s an essential piece of garden machinery.

As the drum rotates, hundreds of flails thresh at the stubborn grass and scrub, making quick work of what would normally be a difficult job.
