Suffolk 30 1m Tractor Pasture Topper Mower

Introducing the British-built and "bomb-proof" Suffolk-30 Pasture Topper Mower. The unrivalled choice for tackling overgrown grass, brambles, saplings and light scrub. You'll most frequently see Suffolk toppers used to maintain paddocks and grazing land for horses, sheep, goats or alpacas.

What makes a Suffolk topper mower the unbeatable choice?

The unique design of the Suffolk range overcomes the shortfalls found in conventional topper mowers - saving you significant time and effort while achieving superior results.

The average topper mower runs on two skids, and with skids, you have to sacrifice one of two things: - either you expend unnecessary time and effort to raise and lower the topper mower when turning at every row-end and when reversing, or you sacrifice the aesthetics and health of your grassland, as skids gouge and tear the ground and grass upon turning.

The Suffolk paddock topper lets you have the best of both worlds by utilising the solid, puncture-proof rear wheel to raise the topper mower off the ground and eliminate the need for skids. The cutting height is easily adjusted via the rear wheel, and no spanners or tools are required.

The rear wheel doesn't just eliminate skid damage to grass and the laborious hassle of raising the hitch every time you need to turn or reverse, but it reduces wear on your tractor. As the topper runs on the easy-to-pull rear wheel, the tractor is under much less strain compared to pulling a conventional topper mower like a sledge.

You will also have much more stability when turning, as raising a conventional topper reduces the weight on your front wheels, reducing turning ability. This is why you can use a wider Suffolk topper mower for your tractor's size, compared to alternative toppers - saving you even more time when cutting!

The second issue with the average topper mower is the problem of cut grass collecting along one side of the mower body and being deposited in dense lines. These lines of cut grass are unsightly, and on top of that, it's often recommended that grazing animals avoid eating this clumped grass, as it will sit in a long line and rot.

The Suffolk pasture toppers solve this problem too - instead of the rear of the mower being entirely open, the unique angled rear spreads this grass out across a much wider area. This leaves a beautifully neat and aesthetic finish, as well as peace of mind that your grazing animals aren't eating what they shouldn't!

Lastly, the chain that runs between the top link and the mower chassis is a design called a 'floating linkage,' this allows the mower to glide over contours in the ground for an even cut across undulating terrain, while maintaining the ability to be raised off the ground when required.

Suffolk's British engineers have designed the Suffolk topper mower to be as robust, easy to repair, and as maintenance-free as possible. The direct-drive gearbox is protected by a sheer-bolt PTO shaft (which is included free of charge), to eliminate the need for easily-worn belts that rack up wasted downtime and cost on inferior toppers. There are no specialist tools or equipment needed to maintain these toppers.

There's no need to worry about parts being unavailable or discontinued in future (like with many cheap Chinese imports), as Suffolk toppers are built entirely in Britain and have been since 1999. The engineers who build this topper have been manufacturing agricultural machinery for over 50 years and are happy to provide spare parts for all machines manufactured during this time.

Delivery of these mowers is quick and easy. Due to the large, unwieldy size of topper mowers, anything larger than a 1.1m cutting width typically requires a forklift truck to remove from the delivery vehicle. Suffolk toppers arrive on the manufacturer's specialist vehicles, which are equipped with small cranes to offload for you. In addition, the vehicles are typically 3.5T flatbed vans that can access difficult-to-reach farms that an articulated lorry cannot.

Four sizes are available and are identical in every way other than the cutting width:

• The Suffolk 30 has a 3.2ft (1m) cutting width.
• The Suffolk 40 has a 4ft (1.22m) cutting width.
• The Suffolk 50 has a 5ft (1.52m) cutting width.
• The Suffolk 60 has a 6ft (1.83m) cutting width. 

Since 1999, over 500 Suffolk toppers have been sold entirely through word-of-mouth recommendation. Once you switch to Suffolk, you'll never want to return to a conventional topper - and with the expert craftsmanship, heavy build quality and long life span, you won't have to!
