Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners. This Offset Flail Mower has been
designed with care and built by skilled workers using
quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and

satisfactory use from this product.
Application
The OFM36 Series of Offset Flail Mowers are designed
and built to provide excellent cutting and shredding
performance on gently sloping or slightly contoured right-
of ways, roadsides, ditches, pastures, vineyards,
orchards, nurseries, and smaller fields of row crop stalks
and residual agricultural growth.
The OFM36 Series are available in three models
(OFM3678, OFM3690, and OFM3698) with the last two
digits in the model number designating mowing width in
inches. All models are designed with a 540 rpm Cat. 3
main driveline for attaching to tractors with maximum
130 hp rating and Cat. I or Cat. II 3-point hitch.
The Flail Mowers can be offset to the right up to 49"
(125 cm) for a closer cut alongside buildings, fences,
roadsides and around trees with extremely low hanging
branches. The flail head will follow terrain up or down
65 degrees.
All three models are equipped with the hammer blade.
The hammer blade is s
uitable for cutting grass, shrubs, vine
shoots, and for shredding orchard and vineyard trimmings
.
