    L2501 HST and Flail Mowers - looking for suggestions

    One more thing on mounting. If using the QH15, you also need to order the quick hitch bushing kit from Woodmaxx for the lower pins.

    L2501 HST and Flail Mowers - looking for suggestions

    Yep - this is what I’ve done for hills...backing up and then mowing forward. The rear top-n-tilt is helpful for this. If the hill grade isn’t too steep I’ve also mowed going up. Also didn’t mention last time. My mowing is for fire suppression in the Sierra foothills — so several times a year...

    L2501 HST and Flail Mowers - looking for suggestions

    Hi Mike, Sorry for the delay responding - haven’t been on OTT lately. Yes, the FM62H arrived and I’ve been using it on the L2501. For my use, it is working well and I am happy. The property is quite hilly — sort of terraced, 150’ or so from bottom to the top; and with lots of granite boulders...

    Hi Chad - Quick question. Was reading some of your prior posts. You've said you bought a Woodmaxx FM62 (H?) but originally had the QH10 quick hitch on your tractor. I'm in a similar situation - have an L2501 and QH10 and an FM62H is on its way across the country to me. Woodmaxx says the QH10 is...

    Update: pulled the trigger on the FM62H for the L2501. Now have to patiently wait as it makes its way across the country through the snow. Thanks again to all for the feedback! Will post back here with first impressions in a few weeks.

    Thanks Oliver for taking the time to write that up - this was very helpful and makes me think I made the right decision. I went with the FM62H (Y blades) and it is on its slow trip from NY to CA. Our usage sounds roughly similar. Plan to mow once or twice a year as fire suppression on meadow...

    Hi there Oliver - been digging around a lot on OTT for information on flail mowers and found a post from you last year that said you are running the L2501 and the Woodmaxx FM62. This is actually the same combination I'm considering (probably with Y blades). Woodmaxx was trying to talk me into...

    Hi Dawson - I see below you mention having drawings for a few L models. Do you make the grill guards for the L2501? Thanks!

    L2501 HST and Flail Mowers - looking for suggestions

    Thanks to all for the feedback. Much appreciated. You're making me think I was headed in the right direction originally. I wasn't too concerned about the FM62 with the L2501 until talking to Woodmaxx. To their credit, they were (are) trying to talk me out of the 62 and wait for the FM54 to be...

    L2501 HST and Flail Mowers - looking for suggestions

    Does anyone have experience with the L2501 HST and the Woodmaxx FM54 or FM62 flail mowers, or have other suggestions? And what sort of brush/ground are you mowing? L2501 PTO hp is 19, and many flails (such as the FM62) are rated for 20hp and above. Wondering what others have done in this...
