FERRI ZMTE SLOPE MOWER, 55-85 HP

Ferri ZMTE Series of slope mowers are designed for maximum reach to the right of the tractor center line. The mower gearbox is mounted outside the transmission which allows for several more inches of reach.

ZMTE mowers require mounting on a Category 2 three point hitch. Overall tractor weight is critical to maintaining stability when using this machine in a full offset position. Tractors should be fitted with two sets of remotes to power the two cylinders on the unit. One cylinder controls in and out functions, and the other cylinder controls the slope angle of the flail head.

One of the most important features of the Ferri slope mower is that it can mow directly behind the tractor, or offset to the right hand side of the tractor. With the mower in an offset position, the flail head can angle down the slope, or up the slope depending on the contour of the terrain. This feature makes this machine incredibly versatile, and well suited to roadside maintenance.

Because the cutting head is a flail mower design, these machines are very safe to use in roadside applications. These machines are typically fitted with long wearing hammer blades, so they have the ability to handle brush as well as heavy grass. The machines are easy to mount on a tractor three-point hitch, and easy to remove, freeing the tractor up for other duties.
