Wessex 3-Point WFE Flail Mower Description
Control dense grass and vegetation, even small saplings with the Wessex WFE Flail Mower. The WFE series comes in three widths, connects to your tractor’s Category I or II 3-point hitch, or your Category I Quick Hitch. This is great news as very few flail mowers on the market are quick hitch compatible, and if you don’t know quick hitches making connecting to rear attachment way easier.
Compared to their WFM counterparts, the WFE series require less horsepower, are lighter, and cost less.
Heavy Duty Hammer Blades pulverize tough material, but will do a fine job cuting grass too. A full width adjustable rear roller maintains an even cutting height.
Three tailgate settings let you optimize the style of cutting you want to do:
- Close the tailgate all the way, and mulch your material
- Open it part way and eject your cuttings behind you
- Open it fully and move fast and free without worrying about anything than moving fast
One of the greatest advantages of a flail mower is that they often offset, so you can mow out past your tractor’s foot print. The WFE series all manually offset 12 inches, to mow along fencelines or anything you can’t or shouldn’t drive right up against.
A hydraulic upgrade is available to control your mower’s offset while you drive, right from the seat. If you have the hydraulic ports on your tractor, we strongly recommend this option so you can be way more efficient and keep mowing while adjusting to the needs of the land.
