How to choose
- Narrow access (gates under 1.4m wide) with steep banks: the FB550 is the smallest crawler that still climbs 70%.
- Ground that is soft, wet or stony: crawler tracks spread the load better than wheels.
- More than about 1 hectare per shift: choose the 900mm or 1200mm deck to cut passes.
Frequently asked questions
Is the FB550 a flail or a flat blade mower?
A flat blade (rotary) mower. It cuts cleanly and lays the grass down; for shredding reeds and brush choose the FL flail series.
Can it work on wet ground?
Yes - the rubber crawler tracks spread the machine weight and the 340kg chassis stays stable on soft or wet grass.
What is the narrowest gate it fits through?
The body is 1300*1400*650mm, so plan for an opening of about 1.4m. For tighter access the 550mm wheeled RM550 is smaller.
