Features
Hammer Blades for a Range of Conditions

The FL10 Series models come standard with hammer blades. These are great all-purpose durable blades, providing aggressive cutting for tougher conditions while also delivering a high-quality cut on maintained fields.
Durability and Versatility

The Frontier™ FL10 Series Flail Mower combines rugged durability for brush cutting with the finesse to leave turf grass looking polished. Its dual-purpose design eliminates the need to switch implements, letting operators tackle everything from ditches to hedgerows efficiently while protecting the tractor by clearing rough material on the first pass.
Roller With Adjustable Cutting Heights

The roller can be adjusted into three different cutting height positions (low, medium, and high). These adjustments can help prevent blades from digging into the soil with changing conditions. Even in rough terrain, the roller can help achieve a smooth performance.
