BullMach Estia 180 - Tractor-mounted side verge flail mower with Arm - Medium series

The BullMach ESTIA 180 side arm flail mower is a highly-efficient cleaning tool for green maintenance, ditches and hedges.

This side arm flail mower provides a wide range of operation for users who desire high versatility level and customisation in their shredding work.

The ESTIA 180 model provides the highest level of ductility among the other flail mowers available on the market. Its fully hydraulic movement allows both horizontal and vertical movement. The machine's frame is medium-sized and elastic, making it ideal for shredding light prunings, grass and small shrubs.

Its functions include grass cutting, shredding of stalks and prunings, and hedge trimming. It is particularly suitable for working on ditches, riverbanks and sloping terrain.

ESTIA 180 side arm flail mower is equipped with a hydraulic lateral shift, which is controlled by two sturdy pistons mounted on the machine. This system allows easy adjustment of the 3-point hitch's side position, giving the operator greater versatility and ease of use.

Its flexibility, customisation and advanced features make it a reliable tool for a wide range of shredding jobs.

This flail mower is equipped with a CMR gearbox (Costruzioni Meccaniche Reggiane), an extremely important element designed to transfer power to the flail mower's rotating drum.

The CMR gearbox is made of high-quality materials, such as high-strength steel, in order to guarantee the durability and sturdiness required to withstand the load and stresses generated during shredder operation.

The side arm flail mower is equipped with an exceptional hydraulic side and vertical displacement system, which guarantees great versatility and precision while working. This system is controlled by two powerful pistons, which provide the necessary force to move the flail mower.

Thanks to the 4 hoses that are connected to the hydraulic couplings on the tractor, the operator can easily control the movement of the arm flail mower. This hydraulic connection system ensures perfect synchronisation between the chopper and the tractor, allowing smooth and precise operation.

The sturdiness of the displacement system is guaranteed by its structure, consisting of two articulated arms. These arms are designed to handle heavy loads and withstand the stresses incurred while using the flail mower. Furthermore, they are equipped with grease nipples that allow for proper lubrication, ensuring longer system life and reliability.

Thanks to this advanced displacement system, the flail mower can work extremely flexibly. It can reach a vertical inclination of up to 90° upwards, allowing it to tackle difficult soils and overcome obstacles. In addition, it can tilt downwards by up to -40°, allowing accurate shredding even in areas with a significant slope.

The CMR gearbox (made in Italy) is an essential component that transmits power from the tractor engine to the cutting unit of the flail mower itself. It is responsible for adjusting the speed and torque that are transmitted to the cutting unit.

Gearbox in oil bath. The housing is made of cast iron, while the internal gears are made of hardened steel.

This machine is equipped with a freewheel device (or additional joint) built in the gearbox; this ensures a long service life of all the moving parts of the machine, preventing the kickback that would be caused by changing from 540 rpm to 0 rpm and allowing the rotor to turn freely until it stops.

Lateral 3-belt drive with tension adjustment system by means of a practical screw system.

Focus on the side belt protective cover, equipped with several ventilation openings (for regular cooling).

There are 4 slots which allow optimum operation of the belts in parallel.

Focus on the side grease nipple on the transmission side, located at the rear of the machine, which allows optimum greasing action.

ATTENTION!

The gearbox of this machine can contain no more than 1.2L of lubricating oil.

Please carefully read the instructions manual before starting the unit.

Standard 1 3/8” z6 PTO (suitable for all current and recently manufactured tractors): whether you own a particularly old tractor, make sure that it s equipped with the same PTO and with standard clockwise rotation (right-side).
