HM Economy Disc Mowers
FAST MOWING SPEEDS AT A PRICE THAT GOES EASY ON THE WALLET
The HM Series disc mowers deliver smooth, fast cutting speeds at a price that fits any budget. Available in three sizes — with cutting widths from 5 feet, 6 inches to 7 feet, 11 inches — these durable machines can mow through tough crops and rough field conditions.
RELIABLE DESIGN
CLEAN, HIGH SPEED CUTTING
Slice through thick crops, even gopher mounds, at high speed with the HM Series disc mowers. Depending on the model, four, five or six low-profile, oval cutting discs use two knives per disc to slice through the wet grasses. Knives, made of high-quality steel, are reversible for twice the cutting life.
CONVENIENT TO USE
EASY OPERATION
The simple design of HM Series disc mowers make them easy to use. A single-acting hydraulic cylinder makes it easy to lift the cutterbar at the end of each pass. Right-side swath divider wheel separates each cut path.
