Baumalight’s SWF580 Boom Mower is a heavy duty ditch mower for Skidsteers. You can now safely mow the grass and long brush in your ditches, roadsides and fence lines. The SWF580 ditch mower has an impressive 14 ft. reach and the boom and stick design that allows the user full control of the desired mowing angle. This model is designed to work with skidsteers with a minimum carrier weight of 8,000 lbs. and is available with several motor options. This ditch mower has a full 48” wide mowing head and features our 200 series flail teeth. The deck height is fully adjustable and the head can cut brush up to 2” in diameter depending on your skidsteer’s GPM. When it’s time to move on to the next project, the boom and stick arm conveniently folds up for safe travel.
SOLD BY EQUIPMENT DEALERS
All Baumalight products are sold through our network of equipment dealers. For you, this means better product support, after-sales service, maintenance and product warranty from your local, trusted dealership Click here to find a local dealer.
Note: For Boom Mower’s on a Skidsteer the dealer should price in about a days worth of time for set-up and fine tuning controls.
This should be doubled if a unit is going on a Bobcat skidsteer as the Bobcat skidsteers can come preprogramed to shut down high flow if the AUX control buttons are activated.
SERVICE AND INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS & RIGHT TO REPAIR
Baumalight offers customers a series of helpful service & instructional videos and supports the right to repair. These videos show you how to perform your own trouble shooting and repairs which can save you a lot of down time because many things can be fixed on the spot by end users.
