​NOTES:

  • FOR ALL AROUND FLAIL MOWER PURPOSES, WE RECOMMEND THE BCS BLADERUNNER. IT IS THE BEST CHOICE IN MOST CASES. CALL US IF QUESTIONS ON WHY. THIS FEEDBACK BASED UPON LOTS OF IN THE FIELD TESTING AND LOTS OF SALES OF BOTH BRANDS OVER NEARLY 10 YEARS OF TESTING.
  • Minimum 5" x 10" x 20" tires recommended but its even better user experience with 5" x 12" x 22" or larger tires.
  • ​BCS "Bladerunner" model flail mowers will require the optional roller for use on raised beds.
  • ​Debris screen recommended for flail mower applications | $85 ​to fit Honda engine (GX340/GX390) | Installed (no charge) by us when purchased with new tractor.
  • Front bumper weight recommended for certain applications but does depend upon tractor model, flail mower size and operator size.
  • ​In our opinion, the best tractor(s) to run flail mowers with are the following. The ones in red being optimal ( BCS 732/739, 852/853, 749 | Grillo G85D, G107D, G110, G131).
  • ​Berta flail mowers can also be fitted to older model BCS tractors with the spline and or "flat 3 jaw" PTO shaft. Price is the same and we supply the appropriate PTO flange and shaft based upon tractor brand/model.

Flail Mowers - we offer several brands of flail mowers, depending on your needs (see below for flail mower videos and pricing)

 

BCS Flail mowers:(NOTE: BCS has 2 different models of flail mowers, read on...)

The BCS "BladeRunner" flail mower (available is 24", 30" and 35") is the one of the heaviest duty mowing attachments in the BCS fleet. Perfect for mowing cover crops for quick decomposition, the flail mower has 42 vertically rotating "Y" blades that pulverize plant material into a fine pulp that is evenly spread across the mowing width. The front bulkhead is designed for lifting itself depending on the flow of material to be worked, which can be thick brush, vines, and saplings. Like the brush mower, it can mow anything it can bend. A convenient control handle sets the cutting height from 1/2" to 4" in a matter of seconds, and retractable caster wheels allow for easier handling and transport. The mower rides on special side-mounted skids made of boron steel. Caster wheels are standard on the BCS BladeRunner flail mower. This model is our personal favorite for most mowing situations. This due to it being the most flexible/scalable model. Meaning, you are better equipped to handle "all-around" mowing jobs. This model is our best seller by a large amount.

​BCS "RollerBlade" flail mower (available in 30" size): This flail mower is tailored toward the "market gardener". We recommend it only for that purpose, meaning exclusively doing market garden work. It has a super-fast cut height adjustment system (via hand crank) and you can literally adjust the cut height in a matter of seconds. Additionally, it has heavier and thicker blades than the BCS "Bladerunner" model as well as having an extremely durable "swinging" metal guard in the front, similar to the Berta flail mower but more durable than the Berta. The blade thickness and weight on the Rollerblade is the same as the Berta flail mower. Additionally, this model comes stock with the roller AND there is NOT an option for caster wheels on this model. Cut height is .5" to 2.5". This model (BCS RollerBlade) recommended in cases of exclusively doing market garden use. For all-around purposes we recommend the BCS BladeRunner.

Berta Flail mower:

These heavy-duty mowers feature a horizontally-mounted drum with numerous sets of hinged blades mounted to it. The blades "flail" out by centrifugal force (at a drum speed of about 3,000 rpm) to pulverize material. Flail mowers are excellent for reducing mowed material to a very small size for quick incorporation/breakdown into the soil; very popular for cover crops for this reason. A six-foot tall cover crop can be reduced to 2" -- 4" pieces in a single pass and left evenly distributed across the width of the mower. Because of the time and horsepower required to "grind up" the material that is being mowed, the taller and denser the material is, the slower this type of mower typically has to travel (unlike a Cutter [sickle] Bar Mower, which only cuts material off at the bottom and therefore doesn't care how tall it is, or a Brush Mower, which will give a decent cut at higher speeds but just not grind the material up much). However, with the introduction of the Berta (same company that builds the Rotary Plow) brand flail mowers in 2010, this has changed. . .Berta is the first manufacturer to offer flail mowers with an easily removable baffle in the rear of the shredding chamber: If the baffle is removed, the mower discharges the cut material in larger pieces, therefore requiring less power, and the mower can be run at higher ground speeds, essentially allowing the Berta flail mowers to double as an effective and fast Brush Mower. We recommend the Berta ONLY in cases where the ground is extremely rough and rutted out. This due the feature of the mower having some "float/pivot" at the PTO connection point that allows it to ride smoother in extreme conditions. The downside of this mower is the time-consuming process to adjust cut height. Takes about 10 minutes and it's a messy process. Compare that to BCS which takes literally seconds to adjust cut height. So, Berta mower is NOT a good option if user wants flexibility for fast cut height changes. The Berta flail does accept optional caster wheels if conditions dictate. However, the wheels add a bunch of weight to the mower, we do not recommend them in many cases, but in rarer cases they can be helpful to help achieve additional cut height adjustments.

Available sizes are 26", 30" and 34" in the Berta Franco brand.
