Technology: T-flail machine ideal machine for heavy-duty cuts

Farm machinery manufacturer McConnel has looked closely at flails, and come up with what they claim is the first heavy-duty T-flail which is equally adept at grass mowing, hedge-cutting, or maintenance of mature three-year hedge growth.

According to the company, the standard T-Flail design has proved efficient, reliable and cost effective for most jobs for years.

But heavy-duty cutting has always demanded larger, more powerful machines equipped with heavier, more costly flails.
