Paddock and bramble cutting for 16-35 HP compact tractors
Reclaim overgrown paddocks with hammer flails that knock down brambles and rough grass where a topper bounces. The 1.25m Winton W‑FB125 threads tight gateways on a compact tractor - wide enough to clear ground fast, narrow enough to slip into corners.

DescriptionWhy buy the Winton W‑FB125 Flail Mower?
If you're working a smallholding with a compact tractor in the 16–35 HP band, the W-FB125 hits the sweet spot. It's the mid-width model in Winton's W-FB flail range, sitting between the narrower and wider siblings at 1.25m of cut. Wide enough to clear a paddock without endless passes. Narrow enough to thread between fence lines and gateways.
Built for rough paddock work
A flail earns its keep where a topper struggles. The W-FB125 carries 20 hammer-style blades on a cylindrical rotor, chopping brambles, tough grass and weed growth into a finer mulch rather than leaving long stems behind. Belt drive — 3 belts running to the rotor shaft — takes power from the tractor PTO.
Cut height and ground following
Two height-adjustable skids set the cut between 3 and 8 cm. The rear roller adjusts independently, and combined with the tractor top link it lets you tilt the mower to suit uneven ground. That's what keeps the blades off the dirt on lumpy paddocks where a rigid topper would scalp.
Hitching up
The W-FB125 mounts on a Cat 1 three-point linkage with a lower linkage width of 49–69 cm — standard territory for a smallholding compact. At 260 kg it's a solid lift but well within the 16–35 HP bracket.

Review Your Winton W‑FB125
I would recommend the WFB125 flail mower to anybody, It's a fantastic bit of kit to have and easy to operate.
Has proved very effective cutting my lawn attached to a Ferguson TED20 I would rate it 5 out of 5. No problems as yet.
Excellent bit of kit for the price! Couldn’t have asked for better. Our fields are so uneven so really is needed.
Excellent service and an excellent bit…
Excellent service and an excellent bit of machinery for a fair price. We’re really helpful with the delivery as we had to unload near our track rather than at the property. All in all a seamless service.

Good and easy to deal with but wrong PTO shaft supplied, all sorted amicably.
Great service and a great value flail mower. Good prices and excellent delivery made a very smooth transaction. Flail mower was all set and ready to go so was cutting through thick brambles half an hour after delivery

I have been very pleased with both your level of service and the machine itself
I have been very pleased with both your level of service and the machine itself. It replaced a topper which had rusted out, and although it’s not as fast as that unit, it did cut very well if you went slowly over thick grasses. I would give it 5, as it would be unfair to compare it with a different product!
I've been very pleased with it
I've been very pleased with it. The mower part is excellent but I wonder about the the little stand; have to put a piece of wood under it to stop it sinking in soft ground. The spring on the prop shaft is quite strong and making fitting and detaching prop shaft a bit awkward but I do just have a mini Kubota tractor but all in all I'm happy
Thank you for your constructive feedback, Roderic. The stand is designed to keep the EFG stored at an easy-to-hitch angle when in storage. Usually storage will be in a barn or on hardstand where it works well, but I'm glad you've overcome the difficulties of storing on soft ground.
Great mower
This picture shows 4’ high brambles on the right and the swathe which has just been cut with one pass on the left.
Foton and flail mower earning it’s keep (see height of grass)
I am pleased to say the mower is working very well and I am very pleased with my purchase
Have to say what a cracking bit of kit it is. At first I thought it may be a bit big and heavy for the tractor, but no, picks it up swings it about with no problems, would benefit with a bit of weight on the front of the tractor but not necessary for my use. Very easy on the tractor wasn’t working hard (unlike the old woods rm48 about to be scrapped) leaves a very good finish with the hammers and possibly could rival some finishing mowers if done correctly. I am really pleased with the mower, Excellent quality
Great service
Good price Great delivery
I’ve used this Flail to cut our 6.5 acres a couple of times now, if I leave it too long between cuts then some parts of the field have a type of grass/reed that will wrap around the flail and stall the mower burning out the belts very quickly - so attention when using is required! – I’ve hit multiple rocks and the mower has coped with these no problem. All in all 4 out of 5, very happy price vs. performance, just wish I got a wider one!
I have only used the flail a handful of times since I bought it but so far it seems to work very well. Having said that, it hasn’t been worked hard so time will tell but so far I think it is a good piece of equipment for a reasonable price.
Brad a great machine. I run it behind a vintage MF35X for maintaining our three paddocks and the road verge. Does exactly what it says on the tin!
Works and is easy to use
Very pleased with the purchase. Does what is stays on the tin - very good little mower.

It is very robust and well made
The customer service on this machine has been first rate - informative, communicative, always checking things are okay. The machine itself is excellent and has done everything I had hope it would - it is also very robust and well made.
Tested item tonight and wow that’s going to save me some time :-) Thank you
Just as advertised
Really pleased with the mower – it leaves a really nice clean cut even in heavy grass and we have done quite a few acres now – I think it is those nice heavy flails that give the clean cut and don’t stop at molehills and minor bumps.
I was using on Sunday, only short grass though, about 30-40 minutes, Blazing sun boiling hot and the little iseki never battered and eye, (would normally start to overheat within 30 minutes in half the heat with the woods rm48). Have to add surprisingly quiet and stable, with minimal vibration, very safe too, nothing flying out of it so good for around the greenhouses and polytunnels,
