CHAPMAN ATV FLAIL MOWER RANGE

The Chapman ATV mower range are heavy-duty farm and woodland flail mowers. This type of flail mower is favoured by smallholders, equestrian and large estate landowners when the land is not suitable for farm tractors due to wet, boggy ground conditions where the fields could get damaged.

It is also the ideal mower for cutting down overgrown brambles in woodland areas and for fire break mowing, where heather and saplings need to be cut down.These machines are powered by a commercial-grade Honda GXV630cc/21HP V-Twin engine.
​The ATV flail mower PRO is the newest ATV mower model with a 23HP fuel injection engine, the most powerful engine available on any ATV flail mower in today's marketplace offering a 3-year manufacturers' warranty. The Chapman FM quad mowers are available with "Y" blades or hammer blades for much heavier duties, whilst the PRO model is fitted with hammer flails.

ATV FLAIL MOWER OPTIONS

Front Break Bar - Full width round bar with tapered ends fitted to the front of the ATV flail mower. This bar acts as a protection for the mower against damage from obstacles, such as bricks, boulders, etc,.This bar also helps guide the vegetation such as brambles, bracken, reeds and other materials into the flail mower for a more controlled cut.
Mulching Cutter Bar - This serrated strip of metal fits on the underside of the quad flail mower and is positioned in such a way that allows the cutting blades to mulch the grass to a fine finish, speeding up the decomposition process.
Engine Auto Idle - This feature is a Honda upgrade. It is a simple toggle switch that is fitted to the same control box that houses the safety kill button. This control box has an extension cable which mounts onto the rear rack of the quad bike or similar vehicle. The function of the switch is to allow the operator to change the engine speed from full revs to idle and vice versa to avoid getting on and off the ATV constantly. This is a useful feature for mowing fire-breaks on moorlands.
Twin Wheel Axle - When the ground is very wet and boggy the twin "walking beam" axle of this ATV flail mower is an absolute 'must'. These conditions are typically encountered when mowing reeds.
Centre Mounted Engine - When the ATV flail mower is being used on steep, sloping fields and paddocks, the centre mount position of the engine balances the machine ensuring greater stability and therefore safety for the operator.
​Forged Hammer Flails or Blades - The upgrade to hammer flails is normally required when the mowing duties are tougher, for example woodland mowing of dense brambles, heather and saplings and other heavy vegetation. These hammer flails also give a cleaner cut when paddock topping grass. The design structure of the forged hammer blades is considerably more substantial and heavier, therefore giving a superior cut when compared to 'Y' flails. The increased weight improves the performance of the ATV flail mower when cutting through thick clumps of vegetation.
