looking at geting a 5ft finishing mower for cutting larger areas have a 20hp tractor to put it on.

ideal looking for one with rollers on front and back. or are the 4 wheel ones as good.

what makes can any one recomend. looked at wessex mixed thoughts on there stuff

any help or veiws aprciated can not afford a larger ride on have looked but can not warrent the outlay even for a second hand unit.

PS the finish has to be good with no rows left behind.

Trimax do a decent range, we have had 3 of there biggest procut mowers but the last one was a let down build quality wise, they are pricey compared to wessex though

 

thanks for info there ezemow looks good on the vids, be interested in trying one, have sent them a email see if i can have a demo.

concerned with flails it will leave tram lines if a bit long.

looking at a fleming as well they do them with mulching blades.

will let you know how it goes.

Can't help you I'm afraid, but be interested to see the suggestions. Is it possible to get one PTO powered mower that will do a reasonably neat job on a lawn but will also tackle rides, thistles, brambles, small saplings etc?

 

Flail mower is what your after. I had a demo of one last year it had a roller on so you could get a nice striped finish. You could adjust the roller position to adjust the cut height. Did ok on courser material such as bracken and bramble.

 

I'd of had two sets of flails though one for neat grass cutting and one for doing rides as its very easy to hit a log and chip a boot flail.

Major grass care do what you're looking for although not sure 20hp will lift one with rollers and they will tackle any kind of material and dice it up fine or try spear head for a variety of finish cut flails

I had a wessex once. Never again. It ate belts like no tomorrow, kept losing pins on the height adjusters and wessex never had either in stock. I brought a port agric which was direct drive, but they have now gone bust. Trimax are good, but not used one myself
