Opico has introduced a left-hand version of Maschio’s heavy-duty offset Giraffona flail mower. Designed for medium–sized tractors and already proving popular as a right-hand offset machine, the new left-hand version allow drivers to work safely while moving in the same direction as the traffic.
“The left-hand version of Giraffona joins the existing left-hand Giraffa and provides a safer working environment for the operator by travelling with the flow of the traffic,” Opico’s James Woolway said. “Both are ideal for grass-cutting, and for roadside and hedgerow maintenance.”
The Giraffona mower is available in three working widths – 2.1m, 2.3m and 2.6m – and is suitable for tractors from 120–180hp. All sizes have a floating–head system and double-skin frame that reinforces the main structure of the machine. Hammer flails come as standard, with the option of fishtail flails.
“All Maschio offset flail mowers utilise a hydraulic system allowing the machine to work either directly behind the tractor or to the side,” Mr Woolway added. “This allows the operator to reach far beyond the tractor profile and also work on vertical or steeply sloping surfaces.
“We are confident that the new left-hand Giraffona flail mower will prove an attractive version of an already popular model.”
Prices range from £10,530+VAT for the 2.1m model, up to £11,190+VAT for the 2.6m version (prices correct as of May 2013).
