I got a MX5400 that was gear drive and last year's model (same as this year's) for about $8k less than the closest dealer (check around) and the same price as the L4802. I love it. I don't mind the gears. It's a great machine.

good to hear that not all of their items are made in China. I know the Frontier-branded ones are, which was disappointing.

I was looking at an L (L4802), but the price difference between the MX5400 and the L4802 was negligible after adding a 3rd function and two rear remotes. I really like how the MX has the bigger front tires and axle. Take a look at the MX. I would also recommend a flail mower instead of a bush...

Maschios are made in China (they have their own factory there). Peruzzo's are very nice. 3-Pt PTO Ditch Bank Flail Mowers, For 20HP-200HP Tractors!

It fits well on mine, but the MX5400 is cat 2. They supplied reducer bushings for cat 2 to cat 1.

The company did send me an email that they are sending 4 bolts to replace all of these type. I think this would be an opportunity to redesign this feature. The mower did a great job and left the pasture looking really good - like better than my yard. Those horses are living the dream.

@WranglerX there are several pics, you need to click on the right side to advance them

Yes, I think so, unfortunately. I couldn't find any close replacements anywhere. They had to ship replacements from the factory in China. This is the first major flaw I've found on the mower. They should have designed the arm with standard bolts.

I received the BCRM175 a few days ago, it took me the better part of a day to put it together because the directions are not very good. The directions need better step-by-step instructions and explanations. Between looking at videos and their online pics, I was able to get it together. I...

No welder, so I ordered a set of Kenny's hooks.

Ugh, wish I would have done that!

I'm not sure how/where to attach these. It is a curved back bucket but has a plate mounted on top between the loader connections. How are others with this bucket adding bucket hooks like Ken's bolt ons?

bumping this up. I think these are the same ones as Ironcraft sells.

The peruzzo line is primo. I just got a Nova tractor ditch flail, the make standard flails as well. I almost got a JD, but their Frontier flail is made in China

Yep, I was ready to buy a tractor and all the implements from them. They didn't negotiate and luckily, I learned that I could drive north to KY the same distance to LSE and get a much better deal on Kubota or JD. If you are in the Nashville area, do yourself a favor and get prices for Agri...

Hi, I'm looking to build a bunch of 3 board fence and I am looking at getting an auger for the FEL. Locally, they have the Eterra line (1500, 2500, 3500), the SKU's correlate to the Ironcraft models - are they the same thing? My tractor has 9.5 gpm of flow (MX5400) so I was thinking about...

Do you happen to know if this is correct? Are these Maschios made in China? I'm considering the Frontier FL1163S, which comes to about $5500 with the equine discount or a Nova Tractor BCRM175 fro $3300. My notes:

Does anyone have the John Deere Frontier FL11S series flail made by Maschio? I believe it's the Giraffa M series by Maschio.

did you happen to look at the John Deere Flails? FL1163S is the one I'm considering. It's comes in around $5500 with the equine discount. It appears to be made by Maschio (Italian) in China. I'm between that and the Nova Update: the equine discount is a joke and only works out to saving...

Sorry Charlie! My sour tone comes from being surrounded by snowbirds trying to be southern rednecks! Apologies!

Thanks for the info. I have been looking hard at the Del Morino's, but the cost difference is almost double and I will likely not be gentle. The Super Centurion quote was $7195 plus shipping, the BCRM Middle Duty Ditch Mower listed price is $3,300.00. I also looked at the Peruzzo Elk Cross...

bumping this as I am considering one of these. @Unwiredone is it still humming along?

Thanks! those look pretty solid. This guy handles some 4" brush with it.

@Torvy - which flail mower do you have? Thanks!

Do you know where they are for sale? Below is an email from Muthing from earlier this morning:

I am also on the hunt for a flail mower. I want a hydraulic offset flail. They are made in Italy, China, or Germany (but German ones are not available in the US yet - brand is MUTHING). It is tough to find one in stock.

Yeah, I was surprised. I was honest and told them about the tractor decision as soon as I came to it. Their prices on Kioti's have risen 20% since October 2022, which seems insane, and they didn't have a tractor that fit my needs exactly - I'm not crazy about getting an NX - knowing that they...

haha, definitely a flail of a deal!

I decided to get the Kubota MX5400DT; it was only $1k more than a L4802 and about the same price as a Kioti NS6010. Now if I could only find a large hydraulic offset flail mower in stock somewhere. The Kioti dealer refused to sell me the implements when I decided not to buy their tractor.

Thanks for all the input. If Kioti had a 50hp NS in manual, I would be done. I also talked to two different Kubota dealers - 30 minutes and $6k apart on the L4802 not including the ldr or anything else. H&R Agri power has much better prices than Coleman. Two of my neighbors bought from there.

@tradosaurus Did that end recently? I can't find much on their website. Thanks

Yes, we do. There is a "5 paw" Kioti dealer within 30 minutes - they say they are the biggest Kioti seller in the US. We also have Kubota, JD, Mahindra etc. close by. I wish Kioti had made a 50hp gear-driven NS. They only make an NS5310 HST, no shuttle shift. The dealer is pricing the...

Hi, I'm currently shopping for my first tractor. I'm looking for something in the 45-60hp range and have been settling in on the Kioti NS or NX line - probably with a shuttle shift. I just saw a comment from a dealer that Kioti officially discontinued the NX line a month ago. I was shopping...
