FLO SPEED 6HO - HONDA GCVx 170 Rough cut mower

The FLO SPEED petrol rough cut mower 6HO model is capable of destroying huge masses of any diameter, height and size, shredding them finely.

It shreds tall grass, undergrowth and brambles, even on slopes, thanks to the large front opening of the cutting deck. This product is therefore suitable for cutting operations on overgrown weeds in orchards, vineyards, olive tree groves (especially for the grassing process) or for plant nurseries, green area maintenance operators and managing authorities who can use this tool to clear uncultivated areas. It is not to be confused with a lawn mower, which is more suitable for lawns and gardens.

It is equipped with a 3 speed gears and powered by a HondaGCVx 170 engine 166cc - 5.5 HP rated power.

The hourly working capacity is 4/5 times higher than that of a standard brush cutter while the results are more consistent and tidier.

The line head is included.

Rated Power: 5.5 HP
The correct term would be "Commercial” Power, meaning the classic standard of definition of power officially used until a few years ago by all leading engine manufacturers.

* This figure is even more widespread and advertised in the leading commercial channels, although it is a matter that it is higher than the actual power.

Effective power: 4.8 HP (a rotation speed of 3000 rpm)
It corresponds to the real power expressed motor shaft. This is the power indicated as official in the manual or in the technical data of the motor’s manufacturer.

* This technical data may vary for the same engine model depending on the rotational speed supplied by the engine applied to the equipment.

Belt drive disc transmission

It stands out from almost all other machines of its category on the market (with the disc mounted directly on the drive shaft) because of its belt-driven transmission between the engine and disc. It is therefore more protected against accidental bumps and rocks. The disc is assembled on a shaft made of sturdy steel. The drive belt has a friction effect: in case of collision it tends to slip, avoiding most of the inconveniences. The engine is thus always 100% protected.

Therefore, an outstanding advantage consists of the disc engage/disengage lever. This innovating tool allows activating the disc only when necessary. Thus, the Operator can move the machine using the self-propelled drive while the disc remains disengaged. The wheels feature an oil-bath gear drive unit that can keep up with very difficult tasks.
Transmission to the drive unit is possible thanks to a transmission chain.

Steel line head and 3-speed gearbox

The line head is completely made of steel. This sturdy and thick head is durable and does not take damage from heavy shocks. This unit is suitable for several types of weeds and the cutting capacity exceeds that of a heavy-duty brush cutter - strimmer.

The cutting width is approx. 65 cm! Particularly suitable for final touches and cutting tasks around trees, walls, fencings, fences etc...

It has to be used a line of considerable thickness (we suggest 4 mm diameter) so as to easily cut through even tall weeds with very little wear and tear. The replacement of the FLO petrol rough cut mower line is very easy and requires only a few seconds.

New 3-speed gearbox

Thanks to the new 3-speed gearbox, the versatility of use of the machine is unmatched.

The first speed is used for cutting weeds 1 m higher (shredding and disposing efficiently them preventing the machine from clogging).
Reaching difficult areas with steep climbs or where there are many obstacles such as trees.
With the third gear, you can use the machine on flat terrain with low weeds and carrying out the cutting operations quickly.

Shaped protective cover that protects the Operator from objects (for example stones) that could be eventually thrown away by the machine.
