We've been talking with the guys at Wessex International over in England for a while now. And finally their mowers have made it here to the states, and I'm happy to stay they're available exclusively (for now) at Good Works Tractors.
Wessex has been around since 1962, and is known in the states for their golf and turf equipment. We're carrying their self-powered cutters and flail mowers for ATV's and UTV's.
Jake Browning is over here to walk through the details of the mower lineup with us.

I just purchased a Wessex AFR Flail Mower and had an issue where the engine was not wanting to initially fire after assembly. It ended up being a flooded engine do to the jostling around in shipping and unloading. After contacting GWT they immediately opened a case with the vendor support and we were able to resolve the issue very quickly. Also wanted to note that this was on a Saturday late afternoon. Support from GWT and Wessex worked with me even into Sunday. I'm confident I'll be going back to them for my next purchase.

@franciscovasquez4555 25 дней назад

Outstanding information

@SuperDriver379 23 дня назад

I could see the selling point of one of these machines, even though I have tractor mounted units, most significant sized farms have an ATV because of they are lightweight and handy, easy to get around. They are much lighter than even a small tractor, if you have tight trails or wet areas, this might give you an option that you won’t have with a 3-4 ton tractor. ATV’s are a much smaller footprint, in both size and weight.

@Fireballsocal 25 дней назад

It's great seeing Wessex products available here in the USA. They had another distributor, in the South if I remember right. They also had Honda engines. I suppose Honda is no longer selling those for the North American market? Flail mowers seem to be a great rough cut option and we have had brands in the past that sold product here and have gone out of business, but their mowers are still kicking right along. It's a great design.

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

@calvincoolidge5545 25 дней назад

Mott made a tow behind flail mower back in the 1960’s and 1970’s that you could pull behind a garden tractor. I would have mounted the wheels behind so it doesn’t mat down the grass.

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

Why? It mows matted grass as well as unmatted grass. This isn't a brush hog. Plus, the weight distribution is much different with the tires behind it vs the side. This was the best way to mow soft, mucky areas with the lowest risk of sinking in.

@Noone-jn3jp 25 дней назад

I cant help but laugh at the Idea that this took multiple takes to film and you just walking from home to home “Can we cut your field?” Americans are definitely missing out on international products. Keep up the good work!

@CYBERCHRIS11 23 дня назад

Question, would this work being pulled by a traditional riding lawn tractor? I have a lawn that gets mowed as needed but a marshy bit that only dries out enough to get a mower back to it after a few months of going on mowed....I was sorta picturing taking off the mower deck and pulling this with the mower?

@Tenesor-w5l 6 дней назад

I'm from EU. I've read the comments, thus this text. And I'm using wessex flail mower (which is the exact copy of french carroy giraudon flail mower, what is btw omitted by the guy from UK) 8th year. Absolutely non-destructable piece of machinery. Extremely well engeneered and tested, sturdy as hell. "Eats" 200cm tall grass with no problem, as well as small trees and bushes up to 2" / 60mm in diameter (at least this with 18-20-23HP engine). Heavy flail 'hammers' (350g per two) require no sharpening as they cut in general by weight x speed (this pto has 6000-8000 rev per min). Questions regarding sharpening are thus neglible. You just don't do it, it's waste of time. The fact is grass will be shattered at the ends, but don't expect golf course after one use of flail mower at 2m tall grassland. It's not designed for it.

@bearcat0551 18 дней назад

I think I will mow more often with my old mower. The price of that is a deal killer

@ColinMill1 13 дней назад

Have Wessex considered making something to compete with the BCS two-wheel tractors. We ended up buying one as it was about the only thing that we could manoeuvre around in our wood as it matured.

@BTarpley805 25 дней назад

Beautiful hardware setup! Are the engines large enough to avoid the California small engine ban?

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

My best recommendation is to stay away from California.

@jvin248 25 дней назад

They need a conversion kit for quick connect bobcat (or loader tractor) hookup like a forestry mulcher. What is the safety shutoff system if a wheel rides up a stump/rock/etc and it flips over?

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

Just hit the kill switch that it comes with.

@hornerhillfarm4017 25 дней назад

I like the rotary mower which could replace my first generation DR tow behind. Two questions. 1. Is it possible to get the rotary mower with swing blades instead of the fixed blade? 2. Are either the rotary or flair mowers able to bust up small trees? If so what diameter? Thanks

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

No swing blades, up to 2" diameter on the AFX

@michaelcoursey2220 23 дня назад

Would love to see a “mow off” in some thick stuff between this HD 5’ model and one of the Funny Tops. Assuming the Funny Top would be the winner??? Is this more for folks that don’t have a tractor, or I could be missing other uses

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

They just bolt on...sharpen like you would a mower blade.

@jtaylor9355 23 дня назад

Depending on the design of the "blades" they are self sharpening on most flails. You only have to replace then if you bend them or break em off

@oglehom6208 25 дней назад

with fuel this high and going up this machine almost doubles the use. although it might still be worth it just for it's usefulness.

Gas prices are the same as they were 14 years ago. www.statista.com/statistics/204740/retail-price-of-gasoline-in-the-united-states-since-1990/ Not bad considering how inflation has severely affected everything else. Tractors and ATV's have probably gone up 30-40% in that same time span.

I've taken both machines through 9 foot tall weeds, grass, and small oaks and other trees in the 1.5" range.

@GoodWorksTractors 24 дня назад

How about you start with spelling the word correctly. Then, watch the video where we are on very soft ground and it doesn't sink because of the flotation tires. Those geniuses came up with a great design.

@captaincobb8146 24 дня назад

@@GoodWorksTractors LOL That's what I get for not proofreading. On my keyboard "O" is right next to "I". Believe it or not, I do know how to spell. But I also wouldn't have gone cheap and would have put the engine in the middle, or offset just a little to balance the load on each tire. Put a scale under each tire. I'll bet 100 bucks that the tire with the engine above it is much heavier. Make a video of that to prove me wrong. If I am. I cannot believe that you made a big deal out of a typo, and tried to defend your design. You know... I'm not even going to go back and fix GENIUS. Because my typo isn't as dumb as putting the engine all off to one side like that. LOL

@GoodWorksTractors 23 дня назад

Who cares man. Watch the full length video coming out soon. Clips of it in this one. Incredibly soft muck I’m mowing in and it doesn’t ever come close to sinking. You’re arguing a point of insignificance.

@captaincobb8146 23 дня назад

@@GoodWorksTractors I'm not arguing. You are. I'm just saying that if I were the engineer, I would have bounced the load equally. I mean... doesn't that make any sense to you at all?
