In option, each deck on the FM4012 can received up to three anti-scalping rollers specific for highly uneven terrain.
Deck baffling around the blade ensures optimum cut quality
The FM4012 deck depth with baffling around the blades ensures exceptional material distribution and a higher quality of cut.
6-year gearbox warranty
Each of the FM4012 gearboxes include a 6-year warranty.
Wing deck lift cylinder
The FM4012 has hydraulic lifts for the wing and rear decks to automatically lock them in the up position for transport. The lift and lower for the wings and deck are operated together through the same hydraulic supply with single acting cylinder, requiring only 1 tractor rear SCV.
Optional hydraulic release
To unfold the wings and rear deck from transport position to working position, the FM4012 has a standard rope-pull latch release. An optional hydraulic-wings latch release kit allows the operator to release the decks from transport lock position using a 2nd rear SCV.
FM4012 Sheaves & spindle
For longer belt life, FM4012 comes with cast iron blade sheaves, and also includes ductile iron spindles that have a 1-year warranty and are lubed for life.
The FM4012 has a transport width of 2.31 m (7.58 ft), height of 1.82m (5.96 ft) and length of 3.43m (11.25 ft) to fit in standard size garage.
Mower blades
High blade-tip speed and precise blade overlap work together to ensure exceptional, performance, and cut quality. With a speed of 91.44 m/s (18,000 fpm) blade tip speeds, the cut quality stays intact at mowing speeds up to 8 km/h (5 mph).
Easy shield removal
The shields, protecting the drive belt, are easy to remove without the need of a tool. This ensures easy access to the sheaves, belt, and spring-loaded idler.
Rear chains
Rear chain shields are optional.
This optional hydraulic wing latch release kit is available for the FM4012.
