- How fast can a flail mower now? We took the TYM T474 and the Baumalight FMP260 for Torture Test. We are asked all the time in comments. How fast is a flail mower? This is a broad question with so many variables, but we are testing our setup the way we think most people will use the mower.

Nice!
Thank you.
Howboutcha! Hank. Tony's a hoot, ain't he?
I thought it was fun. 🙂 Here's an interesting experiment: Can a flail mower mow 5 foot tall grass? If you could find a patch that high, I think that would for another fun video. 😁 Keep up the great Tony and Tanja!!
This flail mower is rated for up to 3-in trees. I have taken my other flail mower through unbelievable stuff. I can't wait to try this one in the woods.
I wish i had that flail mower 25 yrs ago, when the hay is over ripe, we had to use the field chopper, which is called a flail chopper, had to take off chute, and open the rear door to let the hay out, think it would have done a better job
Sure they can. I’ve seen it done with a Ventrac!
Sorry Tony, it is not the tractor and the flail mower but your driving is the problem the faster you go the worst you drive a straight line!!!! Tractor and Mower are blamed for Tony's bad mowing... Shame on the Farmer!!! Tanya you are holding back, Tony Deserves an F for Mowing 101 Course!!!
i think it was a great experiment for your specific grass and field. YMMV as the car dealer might say
Thank you. I will have the flail mower back in the woods soon. It is rated at 3" mulching. We will see!
Good evening both of you ( fun intro !!! ) 🤣👌👍 OUTSTANDING DEMO SIR and great camera live close up and great precision speed check ( any tractor speed tickets yet Sir ) 🤣👌👍 Keep up both of you OUTSTANDING TEAM WORK Cheers 👍👍👌👌😇😇🍻🍻
I got a speeding ticket coming around the left corner!
Nice mower. I find the fastest you go the rougher the ride and the poorer job the mower does. Have a blessed week.
The field is fairly smooth. I found the job to be accepted for a pasture.
Cool video Tony. I have a finish mower a brush hog and a lawn tractor. I still want a flail mower. My 494 kind of worthless in high range too.
Yeah the old high range is meant for moving from point A to point b ended only does that well on level ground.
Do you know anywhere in us i can get replacement engine fo a 2017 TYM T293. 29 hp mitubishi. Owner cooked the engine bushhogging. Found one over seas but €$2500 in freight????
I would try through a dealer. They may have them in the TYM Wearhouse.
Hey Tony, I don't know if I'm the only one, but, we have 2 samsung 4k tvs that we watch youtube on. I am subscribed to many channels, yours included, of course 😀. I can watch every channel except yours. It will freeze your video after a few minutes, and it never will work again. Works fine on pc and phone. It's strange. It's only your videos.
I upload my videos in 4K Full Ultra High Definition. According to UA-cam, about 27 percent of clost to 1 million people each month watch us on the TV. You are the first to tell me about a problem. I will keep an ear out for others. I do thank you for taking the time to tell me. God, Bless
How do you think it would going up and down hills. I’ve been using a 70 horse with 15 ft batwing going up and down hills and in and out of valleys for 8 to ten hrs a day and tractor started losing power as the progress on. This is why I’m asking. Trying to learn something here. I do enjoy watching y’all videos
I couldn't guess more than what. Have done.
I only mow with my Caroni flail mower or brush hog as fast as my butt and back will take, and that 2-3 MPH. I’m 76; how fast do I need to go?
As fast as you may want to go.
Good job every body had positive comments but non took the trouble to like. I guess that helps. God bless
Thank you. I am glad you like it. 👍
My daughter tells me I am a dork for this but "it was Crazy Fun"
I love working on the tractor. I guess there is a reason that our channel is 95 percent men watching.
I'm going to order one based on your channel. Is there a discount code for viewers?
No discount for this one. It is a monster. I plan on doing a little small tree land clearing soon with this flail more. It's rated as a small mulcher too.
@@TonysTractorAdventure They should give you guys a kick back or something or sponsor your channel if people are going to buy from your influence.
Maybe they will sponsor us at some point. They may not want to after I take this back in the woods. It is rated for light mulching.
Oh well that "Deluxe Heavy Duty" Brand New Flail mower did Great. That light newly planted pasture field was NO match for that mower. Perhaps an over grown two year old real "Brush field" would make a good demontration. In all practicalities a finish mower could of done the same with sharp blades. Want to see that "Baby" put to a Real test someday- like almost what a Forestry mulcer can do. Thank you Sir for the Excelent vidio and happy safe cutting.
I will have it back in the woods soon enough
That was fun Tony. I was just telling the missus I need a Flail Mower. 👍
I am taking it back in the woods soon. Small tree clearing.
Was your pto rpm declining much at the higher speed?
Not at all in the midrange. It dropped in high range.
Awesome fun video thanks Tony and Tanya
We need fun now and again.
Great video you two. I think it gives a good what if for the more typical viewer. Trade offs for all types of mowers and each changes with field types and conditions. Keep on doing what your doing. God bless
God bless you too. I am going to take it back in the woods soon.
Enjoyed this demo video Tony and Tanja. Love that flail mower.
This flail mower is definitely growing on me. It is built to last a lifetime.
Hey Tony, Joe here; posted to one of your video's a few weeks ago asking you about buying the T264 you recommended in previous videos. Got it, love it! Thanks for your videos.
I still love the T264. I think the engine has a little more torque than the T25's Yanmar. Nothing anyone would notice unless they owned both. Congratulations on the new tractor!
Hy Tony I liked all of you’rs video very nice team with Tanja a Hugh from 🇵🇷
Thank you. We had a fun day with no stress.
Would like to see that same test on pasture of field that hasn't been mowed for a year. That short of growth a good Zero turn mower could handle.
I am not letting my pasture grow up for the test.😁 I have also never seen a zero turn with a loader that can pull a tiller, plow, box blade, etc.
@@TonysTractorAdventure
Not saying that a zero turn can do more than mow just saying that this short grass is not much of a challenge for that machine. I have been interested in a flail mower but I cut off my fields just once or twice a year with my bush hog. I would like to see a flail mower in those conditions in comparison to a bush hog or A.K.A. rotary cutter.
I will do my best
As most always Chief I enjoyed the video. I am glad you took the time to have some fun with the equipment. A BFO observation = every field, every tractor, and every operators ability to hang on will be the determining factor. Bottom line, it will do a fine job if common sense is used. Although they have run out of common sense at my CVS, on back order!
Sir, We are in short supply of common sense here! I put in a request at supply! It was a fun day, but I like that 4-5 mph zone.
You can pull just about any tool as fast as the tractor can until it takes more power then it has to do the job plus the faster you go the harder it is on your butt lol thanks for sharing buddy
I think it's sweet spot is in midrange at about 5 mph. It seems to do very well.
What happened to the flail mower you were using last year when first trying out flail vs brush hog?
Still got it. It only works on the small tractor. I still have the Rotary cutter too. I should do a head to head race with the two mowers.
If you were on flat with no holes in your area fine. I think that if you were near buildings or people slow down.
That seems like common sense. I agree.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Exactly. I think that you know how the land is on your property.
Tony that was another great video! The tractor did really well at those different speeds, as well as the flail mower!!
It was as fun as it looked. I need to slow down and enjoy these things. I have a pretty good life compared to my forefathers.
Great job as usual Tony!!
Thank you my friend
That looked fun
It really was a good day
Yep that baumalite is a stud but it is also being pulled by one of the best if not the best compact tractor s on the market .We went to Paris and talked to a guy up there about buying a t25 and was absolutely impressed.he asked me how I knew so much about tym and I told him I watch Tony's tractor adventure and he smiled ☺️and said yeah i know Tony and his misses .I want a tractor Soo bad but got to find a few acres first.much love from your neighbors in Chester county.god bless .🙏😇
The whole crew at Paris is awesome. God bless you and yours.
Needed that last weekend, when I was mowing 6+ foot tall Johnson grass with my little zero turn mower. Still have about 5-6 acres to go.... Poor little zero turn thought it was going to be a town manicured lawn mower.
I took one of my old small tractors years ago with a 4 ft brush cutter and cut 6 acres of grown up pasture. It was rough as a corn cob full of little trees. It took about 4 hours from start to finish.
Man, realistically it looks a lot more like you're going to be out of practical speed before you run out of capability. The bouncing and rocking is probably going to become excessive from the un-sprung tractor suspension before you actually run out of capability in the mower. I'm darn impressed, I wasn't expecting that!
This pasture is fairly smooth. The tractor has a good seat too.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Fair! Just looked like you were getting some pretty good bouncing around there as you were pushing over 5mph or so. Just interesting to see that the limit is more tractor mobility than power or mower capability.
The ride never crossed my mind, so I guess it was tolerable. I have been in fields that would launch the operator out of the seat.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Must not have been that bad, then! I'm most familiar with the pastures and stuff that'll send you right over the hood if you're not careful. Lol
Well done.
Thank you
Where did you buy the Baumalight Flail mower? I used the dealer location on their website, but when I call the places it recommended does not carrt them?????
You will have to use their dealer locator on their website. I deal directly with the company because of my UA-cam channel.
That looked like a good time. Sometimes you just to scratch that itch and see what happens lol. Have a good one yall.
It was a fun day. I like testing
I have found with my flail mower that if I'm mowing my pasture I can mow faster but if the grass or weeds gets up say 1 to 2 feet or more I can only mow in low range and have to really pay attention to the mower, because I have pulled down my tractor and have spun the belts. Now that I have mine setup correctly in the correct position with the front up some it mows a lot better. Also wet grass and weeds are a lot harder but you just have to slow down.
That is the same for all mowers in my experience.
Tony look into a major mower a cyclone is a very good flail but flails are not your only option now
I don't understand.
@@TonysTractorAdventure sorry tony here in ireland flails are not as big as they were for over grown land now we use major cyclone mowers
I will check it out
@@TonysTractorAdventure do tony with the major u can cut with speed
Ive been thinking about getting a flail, how does it do in the woods? Is it a better option then a brush hog
They do great in the woods. I personally prefer the flail mower.
Can you cut weeds or brush in the woods backing up? does the roller on the back make it harder?
Interesting Tony. Being a Horticulturist over here in England, I don’t have much opportunity for using a flail mower, especially connected to a mini tractor, but what was interesting was that it seemed that the higher the speed the less it cut the grass well. But what was really interesting was that it did cut it wellish across the board whatever speed it went. What would be interesting is how well it would do at different speeds if the grass was either a thicker variety of grass or if the grass was taller in growth and also at what grass height it would become too difficult either to cut or produce a decent cut.
Thank you. It was a fun day. I am impressed with the whole setup.
My comments may be a little late to the party, but I'd not be comfortable running that flail mower at the higher speeds regardless of whether or not the tractor is capable of those speeds. You run the risk of bouncing around in the seat, and overrunning any obstacles in the way: An errant rock, gopher hole, or even a dead animal would be chopped before you could see it and stop. But, I'm retired, so I can afford to take my time........
All valid points.
