HelloThis is not a replay but could find not find where to start just asking questions. Does anyone know what a Rhino-Ag RF-60 Flail Mower weighs? I bought a manual from Rhino and the specifications section includes everything except the weight of the flail mower. go figure...
I would say 550 - 650 lbs. looking at other 60" flail mowers.

FWIW ~ My cheap HD Bestco hammer knife mower has been sturdy and reliable

hey everyone! I'm new to this forum, so please forgive me if my questions have been answered previously. I live in western north carolina and I own a mountainous property up to the ridge line. I'd like to maintain my logging roads for trails, but I also have about 30 acres of pasture that id like to be able to keep up with as necessary. Ive been considering a flail mower to keep the forest at bay as well as for use on the farm. Id use it to mulch cover crop too.

Anyway I have a Kubota mx5200, and id like a flail mower that atleast has side shift. preferably id like to be able to mow embankments so i think that it would be best if i could get a mower that i could easily change the angle of the cut to fit a hillside. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Similar terrain and wants in East Tennessee. Woods maintenance is challenging. Impossible to have one attachment that can do it all. Hard to beat a quality 6’ rotary cutter for toughness and economy. Did get a used an Alamo SHD74 flail last year that has rear wheels. Helps follow rough ground better. Been nice keeping cleared areas mowed. Do lots of back and forth to keep banks, creek, pond, wooded boundaries mowed instead of driving along. Got to be careful with hillside work.

5’ Brown tree cutter, tele-tree clipper, hydraulic polesaw help manage wooded trails.

I run a Woodmaxx FM62 with grass knives on my 2002 BX2200 with 16.7 PTO HP. Lifts and turns it just fine. I can tell it is heavy, but the machine has no problems with it.

I've mowed 4' tall grasses with 1/2" saplings, and it does a great job mowing my lawn.

It is also a very safe implement to operate in terms of hitting hidden objects and wood chippings. Hence why municipalities and states use them along side the roads.

In terms of longevity, I've had my flail since 2017 and zero issues with it. Just a little bit of grease on the bearings and it's a happy machine.
