Versatility and Durability

The Frontier™ FL11 Series Flail Mower combines rugged durability for cutting brush with the finesse to leave turf grass looking polished. Its versatility allows operators to tackle diverse tasks from ditches to hedgerows with a single implement, saving time and protecting equipment by clearing rough material on the first pass.

Side Shift for Hard-to-Reach Areas

The FL11 Series comes standard with mechanical side shift, giving it the ability to slide left of center (11- 33 in. [27.9-83.8 cm]) and right of center. Side shift is ideal for trimming along walls, buildings, trees with low-lying branches, fences, or orchards, making those hard-to-reach areas an easy cut.
