FFM Series Flail Mower
FFM-120
48" Farm-Maxx FFM-120 Heavy-Duty 3-Point Flail Mower – Hammer Blades, Side Shift, Roller & Skids
Tame overgrown vegetation with the Farm-Maxx FFM-120 48" flail mower, a compact yet powerful mowing solution built for tractors with 25–60 HP. Designed to clear thick grass, weeds, brush, and overgrowth in areas where flying debris is a concern, this mower is ideal for roadside maintenance, vineyards, orchards, and tight spaces.
Unlike rotary mowers, the FFM-120's horizontal drum with 14 hammer-style flails reduces the risk of thrown objects by deflecting off solid obstacles, making it a safer, more effective choice for work near roads, fences, or buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What size tractor is best for the FFM-120?
The FFM-120 is designed for tractors between 25 and 60 horsepower, with a standard 3-point hitch and 540 RPM PTO.
Can I mow brush and thicker weeds with this flail mower?
Yes. The 14 included hammer-style blades are built for cutting thick grass, brush, and woody weeds up to 1.5 inches in diameter.
What is the benefit of a flail mower over a rotary mower?
Flail mowers are safer in rocky or debris-prone areas. The flails deflect off hard surfaces instead of ejecting debris, reducing the risk of injury or damage.
