BISONTE Flail Mower 60hp - 140hp

The Bisonte Flail Mower is one of the heavy duty models, designed for use on small to medium sized agricultural tractors from 60 to 140hp and is typically used for agricultural and forestry applications.

The Bisonte uses a self contained gearbox with an input speed of 1000rpm, the gearbox cab be rotated through 180˚, allowing the Bisonte to be used as a front or rear mounted flail mower.

The Bisonte Flail Mower is supplied as standard with category II three point hitches to connect to the tractor. The Bisonte has a second category II three point hitch that allows it to be either a front or rear mounted machine.

The Bisonte Flail Mower utilises 5 toothed transmission drive belts to transfer power to the rotor, the toothed drive belts allow slip proof engagement preventing power from the transmission being reduced due to heavy loads or general wear.

The Bisonte Flail Mower comes standard with hammer flails and as an option with fish tail flails, the self sharpening hammer flail leaves a clean and level cut and lifts and mulches while cutting, whereas the fish tail flail is used for cutting dense tougher material. The hammers and blades bolt onto an electronically balanced rotor that minimises machine vibration and stresses on the bearings. 

The Bisonte Flail Mower comes as standard with double counter blades, an internal lower toothed counter blade and one upper counter blade that ensure that the discharged material is mulched into fine pieces. The upper counter blade enables the Bisonte to produce a finer mulch of harder coarser materials.

The Bisonte Flail Mower has a external rear roller position which unloads material in front of the self cleaning roller, the roller scraper can be manually adjusted if required to suit different working conditions, it presses down the crop residue speeding up break down. 

Front chains and rubber guards allow material to enter the cutting chamber but prevent pieces from being thrown out at high speed.

The Bisonte Flail Mower comes as standard with hydraulically adjusted offset. It utilises a hydraulic system to allow the 3 point linkage frame to slide along a front bar to selecting the offset in either a left or right direction.

The Bisonte Flail Mower uses barrel roller bearings, each bearing has a double rail consisting of two rows of spherical or barrel bearings to cope with heavy workloads. All bearings used in Maschio Flail Mowers are produced by SKF. 

Main Advantages:

Long Life (Up to 30% longer life than traditional taper roller bearings)
