I Finally Found the Holy Grail of Slope Mowers!

[DanielDD]

I've got a pond slope that is 25 degrees. I had Ventrac come and do a demonstration for me earlier this week. I was not impressed considering the price. Everything is an option on the basic tractor. By the time you buy the wheel kit, the finish mower and the tough cut mower, you're in the $30K range.

I then read with great interest about the Kubota F series 4WD units. I was hopeful this may be the answer for me. I called two of the dealers within 30 minutes of me and neither one had one in stock.

So, I was scouring the internet this morning and I found the ultimate slope mower!

I understand they have a headquarters in Alabama. I don' t know much more than that at the moment. Trying to get some information as to whether they sell in USA or import or even dealer opportunities, but I am definitely impressed!

Company name is Brielmaier. Never seen anything like it, but I'm extremely impressed and interested.

Anybody here know anything about them? I believe they are out of Germany....

Looks pretty cool....but probably will cost more that 30k. Just guessing. I see there popular in germany.

I've seen those before and they really are impressive especially for maintaining a hillside lawn or possibly the bank of a highway. The thing I can't understand is how it's cost effective to cut hay on the side of a mountain.

When you hear the entire story, you will go nuts,,
I have read that the reason those machines exist is to make the area attractice to tourists,,

AND

The machines are operated by people collecting welfare,,

So, they are not harvesting hay, they are beautifying the area for the tourists,,,,,,,,,,,,

Do you have a source for that information? I am curious. . Regardless, it is a beautiful countryside!

Also, keep in mind that the places where you see these machines, are full of hills so they don't really have many flat places to make hay.

Id like to see what they use to bale the hay.
