Demonstration of the front mount ATV UTV Flail Mower from Rammy

Hello From Mark In KY; We had a Alamo flail type mower with the highway department which was a 3 point hitch model unit that did not have the offset. This tractor mounted flail mower was utilized for right of way mowing which worked very well.,The Alamo mower had the standard type cutter knives rather than the hammer style cutters as I will call them. Like any other type of mower, The optimum mowing action is relative to the RPM of the blades not being overwhelmed by excessive speed. As I recall, The main reason that we pulled our Alamo out of service was that it was just so totally worn out and not feasible for any further attempts at repair. I have a 1710 Cub Cadet garden tractor with a bad PTO that would probably handle that mower perfectly. Unlike the ATV, The Cub Cadet has most of its weight distributed more towards the rear of the tractor especially with loaded tires. And Yes,I did like the video and subscribe to your KZfaq channel.

Hey Mark! You nailed it, gotta let the machine do the work. This was with the standard "Y" blades. As for your Cub. Yes if you are creative, the Rammy only needs a means of lifting and transport since it has its own power plant on the cutting end. The Rammy is a very simple platform and easy to customize with some basic fabrication. I had a customer fit a Snow Blower into the bucket of a JD Tractor and it worked awesome. Remember, "If they don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" :)

This cuts very well. I wonder what the speed difference is vs the brush mower.

The feedback that I have received on the brush mower is with grassier material like I am cutting, If you go too fast, it will wrap around the blades and kill the engine. Flail worked great and chopped up the grass well, never had to "untangle" once clearing the entire area

Hello, Was this setup with Y or Hammer blades? I'd guess it was Y but not sure if using different cutters would have made a difference. You're definitely slowed down not due to not having enough power, it was the terrain that's unpredictable as you never know what's lying underneath that growth.

This is with the standard Y blades and yes, I ate dirt a few times. What I was mowing and going through was very uncertain. In a known field or trail maintenance situation, you would be able to keep up a fairly steady pace without issue. Desired "quality of cut" being your limiting factor for travel speed.

@@BensonAceHardwareBensonPOWER Well, if it did that well with the Y blades, I can only imagine what it would be capable of doing with the Hammers. I'm considering getting one myself and your video definitely helps cement that decision. You're absolutely right about that, mowing a familiar terrain vs going into untamed, nomansland is a whole different ball game but most people don't realize that. I'm in Canada and what I see available is this flail mower 120 with 9hp engine not the 14hp so not sure if it would be hammer-blade compatible as that setup is a bit more power hungry. Glad to have stumbled across your channel and thanks for bringing real life footage or this mower :)

Perhaps a typo? I thought they only had one engine configuration on the flail mower... definitely a solid machine for the right application.... thanks for watching

i watch alot of mowing/ brush etc. unless this equipment is very inexpensive, i dont see it having enough power, or cutting ability to be practical for anything other than occasional residential clean up. it seemed to lay those reeds over more than cut them. i cant compare prices, but there are stronger front cut machines out there that do phenomenal jobs for such an occasion.most who would encounter grass that tall, will usually also have brush, and that thing struggled with just clumps of grass. jmo....

What other front mount machines are available for the ATV / UTV market? I would like to check them out

forax, rykov, but not my point. your vid showed your rammy to struggle with that piticular patch. would have been more impressed with a demo of tall grass in an open field. a ventrac would have had that knocked down in minutes. just sayin. @@BensonAceHardwareBensonPOWER

A Ventrac is a $30k+ tractor and their Flail Mower attachment is $8k+, I would hope that it outperforms a $5,000 attachment for an ATV....just sayin:)

The ideal is great but its lacking in engine power. Small job and it would take way to long to complete.

@BensonAceHardwareBensonPOWER 11 ай бұрын

I actually felt like the motor was appropriate. Of course, I wouldn't mind a little more, but this was a "worst-case scenario" for this machine, especially with uneven ground and not knowing what I would find underneath. On the flatter portions, I was able to keep a pretty steady pace. It was definitely the terrain slowing me down and not the machine.

@Paulgotitall 11 ай бұрын

I could see you were hesitant a few times because it made the video appear. You had to drive slow due to the engine lacking power. I'm always seeking cheaper ways to keep property looking good.
