DescriptionWhy buy the Winton W‑FB145 Flail Mower?
The W-FB145 is the largest of Winton's three W-FB flail mowers and sits at the top of the range. It's aimed at smallholders with bigger paddocks and a compact tractor with the power to pull a wider cut.
Built for rough pasture, not lawns
24 hammer-style blades ride a cylindrical rotor, chopping brambles, nettles and tussocky grass into finer cuttings that rot down faster. The mower handles uneven ground better than a finish mower or topper, and suits paddocks between livestock rotations or field margins gone wild.
Set the height, keep the scalp off
Twin height-adjustable skids set cutting height between 3 and 8 cm. The rear roller adjusts in the same range and works with the top link to fine-tune the mower's angle across lumpy ground.
Fit and drive
The W-FB145 mounts to a Cat 1 three-point linkage, with a lower linkage width of 49–69 cm. Power runs from the PTO through 3 drive belts to the rotor shaft — worth knowing, as belts are a service item over time.
- 1.45m working width — widest in the W-FB range, more ground per pass
- Matched to 25–40 HP compact tractors
- 24 hammer-style blades on a cylindrical rotor for brambles and tough growth
- Cutting height 3–8 cm via twin adjustable skids
- Adjustable rear roller pairs with the top link to set mower angle
- Belt drive from PTO with 3 drive belts to the rotor shaft
- 290 kg; lower linkage width 49–69 cm — check your tractor's lift capacity

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,
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.
