Hi All,
Longtime reader, first time poster. I have a B6200 with the 48" MMM, front pto. Something catastrophic happened in the past (before I bought it) to the mower deck, resulting in the mounts bending slightly and the mower lifts catching on the belt shield and bending the 3pt lift arm linkage frequently. I've about had it fixing this every time it happens, and I'm dissatisfied with the mower performance in higher grass (which, let's face it, is all my grass by the time I get to mow it). So, long preamble, short question -- Can I run a 48" flail mower with this machine. Mostly grass mowing, and I don't mind going slow if it's tall. Most flails that size say 20hp, and I've only got a (claimed) 12.5hp at the pto. It's a stout little machine,though, and my gut says it could do it, though I wanted to see if anyone had experience in this sort of situation. Thanks in advance.

I run a 48" mott flail mower under my old Farmal Cub F model... it has Always worked fine, was designed for the Cub F... and that tractor is only rated at 10 HP... KennyV

I was thinking a Caroni, since that seems to be the value. Nothing used close to me I can find. Any Caroni Owners care to chime in with their thoughts on the power recommendations? Thanks.
