POWER & PERFORMANCE
Chapman use industry-leading 21hp Honda GX630 V-Twin Engines, which offer unparalleled power and performance. All machines are fitted with a heavy-duty rear roller to prevent scalping.
The compact design of the FM Series self-powered flail topper keeps the mass low to the ground for stability and allows cutting easily beneath trees and overhanging branches.

CLEAN & RELIABLE
The FM Series are fitted as standard with a centrifugal clutch, allowing for safe & efficient operation from the towing machine.
The centrifugal clutch gives automatic drive engagement and disengagement, and combined with the automatic tensioning assembly reduces maintenance by compensating for belt wear and belt loading.

UNIQUE ROTOR DESIGN
Chapman's innovative rotor design incorporates a solid 40mm diameter drive shaft right through the centre of the rotor with a structural grade 90mm diameter outer tube, onto which the flail lugs are welded in a spiral pattern.
This unique design transfers cutting power more efficiently from the engine to the cutting heads, giving a cleaner cut and better performance in tough situations. Furthermore the rotor incorporates dedicated bearing guards designed to prevent string and wire damaging the bearings.

CLASS LEADING
The FM Series feature heavy duty steel ‘Y’ flails for a clean and effective cut whatever your scenario.
Simple height adjustment for ease of use and heavy duty & robust B Section drive belts for low maintenance ownership, complete the package for this class leading ATV Flail Mower.

Optional Extras:
FRONT BREAK BAR
Tubular fender bar to protect wheels and feed tall material (eg. bracken, reeds) into the mower smoothly

CUTTER BAR
Fixed cutter bar within the deck to increase mulching and reduce chop size, for faster cut material de-composition.

TWIN BOGIE AXLE
Replaces standard axle assembly with rocking beam axle with two wheels (per side), for smoother travel over rough terrain. Can only be used with the wheels to the side, cannot be used with wheels trailing.

FORGED HAMMER FLAILS
Forged hammer flails are considerably heavier, harder and give a better finish when cutting tough material eg. reeds, bracken. Higher rotational mass improves mower performance when encountering heavy clumps of material.
