Is there anything available like this , Compact Range of Professional Side arm Flail Mowers, for a B2320, something to trim back blackberry bushes on the side of the driveway and road.
That looks pretty spendy and I'm sure my tractor is too small for anything like that.
thanks

The vineyard attachment on one brand has two and three sickles to prune on all three sides for pruning grape vines in one pass and it may be what you want as it would be capable of trimming and pruning for you.

I can forward some information to you about flail and sickle pruners as I have it stored.

One manufacturer has very small tractor rear mounted boom flails that can do this as well as mow.

send me a PM with your e-mail and I can forward it to you.


Edit 5 august 2010 I totally forgot the Samurai it would be perfect if you have a front end loader to aid in trimming

Most manufacturers have an offset flail mower that mounts on the 3-point but mows past the RH rear wheel a foot or so. When you are talking flail mowers you are talking $thousands. What you buy is a mower that will chew through stumps and 4" logs without burping. For the money, I pull out my chainsaw and do the big stuff myself.

The John Deere 90 was made for tractors up to 50 HP. Not sure about the low end. I'll have to dig out my manual tonight after work and look it up. My tractor is actually a little big for it.

I do have both a front end loader and back hoe connected.
