Paddock and orchard mowing for 25-50 HP compact tractors
Mow past fence lines and hedge bottoms the tractor can't straddle - offset to one side, this 145 cm Winton W‑FL145 chews through rank paddock growth on hammer flails and still leaves a fine finish on shorter grass behind a compact tractor.

DescriptionWhy buy the Winton W‑FL145 Flail Mower?
The W-FL145 sits as the mid-large option in Winton's W-FL flail range. At 1.45m it clears paddocks and orchard strips in fewer passes than the narrower siblings, without pushing into the upper end of the compact-tractor bracket. The chassis is offset from centre, so the cutting head reaches past hedge bottoms, fence lines, and posts the tractor itself cannot drive over.
Heavy flails, fine finish
Twenty-four heavy hammer blades are mounted in a spiral layout around the cylindrical rotor. That arrangement bites into rank weeds and overgrown grass, but drop the cutting height and the same flails leave a finish tidy enough for lawns and sports field surfaces. One mower covering rough ground in spring and a manageable sward later in the season.
Cut height and ground tracking
The rear roller is height-adjustable and works alongside two adjustable skids to set cut between 3 cm and 8 cm. On uneven going the roller carries the machine over hollows and ridges that would scalp a rigid topper. Power comes off the PTO through three drive belts to the rotor shaft.
- Working width 145 cm — mid-large in the W-FL family, paired to tractors that have the power without the bulk
- Tractor range 25-50 HP on Cat 1 three-point linkage, 60 cm lower linkage width
- 24 hammer flails on a spiral-layout cylindrical rotor

- Offset from centre for mowing past fences, hedge bottoms, and posts
- Belt-driven rotor — three drive belts off the PTO input
- Weight 284 kg; 85 × 160 × 95 cm

FeaturesWinton W‑FL145 Flail Mower features & benefits
High Density Vegetation
Winton flail mowers are designed to power through thick brambles, dense weeds, saplings and long grass. They can also leave a neat finish on regularly cut grass.
Professional Use
Professional-grade machines are built tough and use premium components. In additional to being exceptionally reliable, they achieve great results and are very efficient.
Strong & Simple to Maintain
The chassis is constructed from thick steel and is built to be easy to maintain and repair. They feature higher quality bearings, blades and gearboxes over many rival models.
Heavy Duty Gearbox
Winton gearboxes are heavy-duty and robustly made. They are highly reliable and significantly larger than other machines in their price bracket, allowing more power to be transferred through them.
Heavy Hammer Flails
The heavy hammer blades are arranged spirally for an efficient cut. These blades will smash through dense vegetation and brambles and also give you a neat finish on fine grass when used regularly.
Tractor CompatibilityCheck tractor fit for the Winton WFL series
Compatibility is based on standard tractor specifications, such as a 540RPM clockwise PTO, Type 1 or 2 linkage, and hydraulic spools where required.

Quality product and professional service. Definitely recommend
Flail mower has been excellent
Flail mower has been excellent. We use it all regularly to cut paddocks and to help cut up hedge trimmings. I give it 5/5. I guess I would now buy the version which allows for offset but its not limiting my use.

Thank you for your feedback, Geoff. The hydraulic offset WHF version of your flail mower will give you roughly 30cm more cut on the right-hand side. Fortunately for those with the fixed-position WFL model, it has a built-in offset as standard. This is due to the mower being central behind your tractor while having the belt drive on the left-hand side.
