The FPM 1.8m Vineyard Mulcher F-VM180 is the ideal machine for grass maintenance in vineyards and orchards. This mower is fitted with heavier hammer flails so it is ideal for tougher grass and weed control, as well as mulching prunings up to 5cm in diameter. The resulting mulch decreases the need for artificial fertiliser. Several heavy hammer blades are mounted to the cylindrical rotor in a spiral layout. This action is most efficient and creates finer cuttings. It is also better suited to uneven ground types than conventional rotary and topper mowers. The mower is belt driven, meaning that there are 3 drive belts which give power to the blade rotor shaft. This machine benefits from an adjustable rear roller. This and the skids can be adjusted up or down along with the tractor top link arm to change cutting height between 2cm and 7cm. The rear roller helps to avoid blade scalping on uneven areas. This mulcher has a manual side-offset perfectly designed for awkward to reach areas, making it a very versatile machine. The FPM 1.8m Vineyard Mulcher F-VM180 can be attached to the 3 point linkage of a range of small and compact tractors.
