224cc 20" Self-Propelled 8.5HP Petrol Flail Mower BM11161

Forestwest BM11161 20" Self-Propelled Petrol Flail Mower cuts and mulches grass in a single pass – no raking, bagging, or secondary cleanup. Powered by a 224cc OHV 4‑stroke engine (5.3 kW / 8.5 HP, 3600 rpm) with recoil start, it delivers reliable performance for orchards, vineyards, large lawns, and paddocks. Cutting width is 50 cm (approx. 20 inches), and stubble height adjusts from 0.5 to 4 cm (0.2 – 1.6 inches) to suit different grass types and ground conditions.

The flail mulching system finely chops clippings and returns them to the soil as natural fertiliser – improving soil health, saving labour, and turning grass waste into a resource. Self‑propelled drive with 2 forward gears, neutral, and 1 reverse (gears: 2,1,0,-1) makes it easy to handle slopes and tight corners. Durable solid tires eliminate flats and provide stable traction on wet or uneven ground. The lightweight design and flexible turning let you manoeuvre around trees, posts, and flowerbeds without effort.

With a 3.9 L fuel tank (approx. 1.0 US gallon) and 0.55 L oil capacity, the BM11161 runs for extended periods on regular unleaded gasoline. Experience one‑pass mowing and mulching that saves time, reduces labour costs, and enriches your land.
