Yes , very very good bits of kit , having said that i have seen them used on a couple sites and unless you have a decent opperator at the controles things can get messy pretty sharpish !!!

Depends very very much on the type of grass, the finish and how often. We have one at work. Not convinced for our use.

 

Vertical flail was the line... Try rotary with swing back blades. Just tends to strip anything woody and leave it standing.

 

The other problem for me is the tracks sit outside the deck unlike conventional flail deck units from other manufacturers. This means it's forever running down uncut grass. Less a problem on very short grass but not ideal on longer grass at all

 

Most deck parts are skag I believe... And the price.... Think this one was 27-29k
