Vicon CM216 Disc Mower

Steve HEF · Jul 29, 2011

The place I work has an old Vicon CM216 mower that is in disrepair and I'm selling it off as surplus equipment. I've been trying to do a little research on it to answer questions that might come up from prospective buyers but am coming up empty on a google search. Nearly all the info I do find is from the UK, is this where they were built? I've been told there's a problem with the gearbox on this one, it looks like parts would be available abroad but how about here in the US? Thanks

You can find Vicon dealers in the United states from coast to coast,

The www.kvernelandgroupusa.com Headquarters is in Syracuse, New York 1-315-431-3501

You have a good mower that just needs some work, I would hold onto it and repair it.

Thanks for the lead, I'll give them a call. The link you posted doesn't work.

I started my position in January as head of a municipal maintenance department and inherited this attachment. I've been told the gearbox is shot and I noticed the hoses have been removed from the hydraulic cylinder while it has sat in the weather for a number of years. They had already replaced it with a New Holland 615 and we don't have the need for 2 mowers of this type which is why it's going out for sale.

I haven't been able to locate a website for Vicon, do you know anything about this company?
