The FM48 heavy duty flail mower was been introduced to the range of SCH equipment to fulfill the need for a bigger unit for greater horsepower garden tractors (18hp and above). Its improved design means the height adjustable transport wheels are now mounted behind, instead of at the sides, for a close-to-edge cut.
The two main differences between SCH's small unit, the FM42 are firstly that it has a wider cut and secondly it has a centre positioned 13hp Honda engine with electric start. This increase in engine size can more than adequately cope with the increased cutting width.
The transport wheels situated at the rear of the machine are designed to be lifted out of use during operation which reduces the risk of tyre punctures when flailing thorny shrubs.
The 42 cutting flails are free-floating on a chain link to the rotor shaft. The safety of the operator is very much in mind when designing this type of machine. Full skirt guards are provided to stop the operator's feet accidentally being offered to the flail. An emergency stop pull cord is fitted as standard.
The one piece rear roller prevents scalping and the machine is fitted with a 50mm ball hitch as standard.
Suitable for towing behind 18hp+ lawn tractors, ATVs and quads, the tow bar has two operating positions, one in the centre of the machine and the other offset to one side where it is beneficial not to run on the standing growth before cutting.
Optional extras:
- Different hitch type (please specify when ordering)
- Diesel power unit

ABOUT SCH SUPPLIES.....
They say that necessity is the mother of invention – and this is certainly true of the birth of SCH (Supplies) Ltd.
Back in 1986, the late founder and former managing director Andrew Rodwell became frustrated at the lack of suitable lawn care attachments to fit to his garden tractor. Not being one to back away from a challenge, Andrew set about designing and manufacturing the attachments he wanted and started selling them to friends who had encountered the same problem.
SCH Supplies Limited now has over thirty years' experience in the manufacture of quality grounds care machinery and is proud of the fact that 90 per cent of its products are British built. SCH products are robustly made and, in most cases, very simple to use. The company can supply almost everything you could possibly want to tow behind your estate or garden tractor, including a range of lawn care maintenance machines, waterers, sprayers and trailers, as well as specialist equestrian and sports surface machines.
Based in Ipswich, Suffolk, the company has grown to 20 employees who design, manufacture and delivery a vast range of products, not to mention the 'one offs'. If required, SCH will work with a customer to build a bespoke garden machine to agreed specifications.
Please Note: Due to the nature of this specialist equipment, SCH Supplies builds its products to order and prefers to deliver using its own transport, which is why we quote an extended lead time.
