Tractor Flail Mowers for the John Deere 5500

Built for paddocks, headlands and verges where a topper leaves rows of cut material behind. Hitch it to your John Deere 5500 and the flails chop and mulch brambles, brush and overgrowth as you go.

Tractor Topper Mowers for the John Deere 5500

Hitch a topper to your John Deere 5500 for fast rough-cuts across pasture and paddocks, or a finishing mower for a tidy lawn-style finish on estate grass. Quicker and lighter work than a flail when the grass isn't rank.
