Received yesterday afternoon, took a floor jack to hold the peaces up while bolting everything together, 1 hole i had to drill out the paint as the bolt would not go in. Super powerful, awesome at cutting. Much quieter than I expected. Recorded a video but it will not let me post it.

I just received my new 57 bank flail mower. Loving it! Ok, it took nearly 4. hours to put together. It's definitely a 2 person job. Super heavy. I was hoping to run it on my Kubota 2501, but it is way too heavy for it. I could BARELY get it off the truck. Ok, now all of the great things about it. We own about 40 acres and and about 25 of it is pasture, and I created a gold/shooting range on one of them. It is about 300 yards deep, and about 200 yards wide. I have been using a bush hog (rotary mover) and it has been a mission trying to get it all done. It always leaves these HUGE lumps of grass and when you go to cut it again, you have to cut the grass AND the lumps left behind. I received by flail at 2 pm and at about 630 I was out cutting. MAN!!! It is JUST like my zero turn. IT is absolutely fantastic and leaves a BEAUTIFUL cut! I wished I had gotten this a long, long time ago!

Got it hooked up on a Saturday morning and by lunch the farm looked like a different place. The mower just chewed through briars I’ve been ignoring for years. My dog kept following behind, probably wondering where his jungle went.

Was able to reach the sales staff to answer all of my questions and also reach the shipping staff to check the status of where my order was during shipment. Purchased the VLF57 Offset Flail Ditch Bank Mower. Was more than satisfied with the price and how well constructed the unit is. Tested it out and on day one was impressed on how well it holds up as I put it through well overgrown area.

57" Cutting System with Forged Hammer Blades

With a 57-inch cutting width, the VLF57 provides efficient coverage while remaining maneuverable for compact tractors. The rotor is equipped with 24 forged hammer blades designed to handle grass, weeds, and light woody material commonly found along ditch banks and property edges.

Fixed internal shredding blades improve mulching performance, producing a finer cut and reducing debris size.

The 50 HP-rated cast-iron gearbox includes flywheel protection to absorb torque surges during heavy mowing. A three-belt drive system transfers PTO power smoothly while protecting internal components from shock load.

This configuration ensures reliable performance and reduced maintenance over years of operation.
