The new AS 1040 Yak 4WD ride-on flail mower from AS-Motor Germany GmbH & Co. KG combines the cutting performance of a flail mower with the climbing ability and comfort of an AS 4WD ride-on mower. The professional AS 1040 Yak mulches dense growth on demanding terrain.
At just 335 kilograms, the AS 1040 Yak 4WD's compact design provides stability on slopes and difficult terrain, while flail mowing technology delivers incredible cutting force and clean mowing results at high work rates. An asymmetrically-placed flail mower deck allows flush, close-to-the-edge mowing with particular ease.
The low centre of gravity and optimal weight distribution characteristic of AS ride-on mowers qualify the AS 1040 Yak 4WD for use on steep terrain. Permanent 4WD and aggressive tread tyres provide excellent traction while pendulum bearing support on the front axle ensures continuous ground contact. A robust flail mower deck reliably shreds growth up to 1.5 metres high to a fine mulch. All of these characteristics prove advantageous on difficult terrain such as steep road embankments, which are often mown just a few times per year.
The AS 1040 Yak's 56 Y-flails ride up and over obstacles and concealed objects, protecting both the engine and the operator while the surfing mower deck also gives way upward to avoid damage. A laterally offset mower deck facilitates mowing under crash barriers and along road boundary posts and similar traffic elements.

It takes just ten minutes to set up the system, bolt the rake together, lay out gather rope to far shore and attach the winch to a suitable tree or ground anchor.
The rake is sat on the float and the float is pulled to any area of any sized water body, it is easily deployed by pulling on both gather rope and winch rope, the rake slides off the float and lands on the lake floor. The winch is then used to haul the rake across the lake floor.
The off-set tines of the rake force weed to zig zag up through the rake and jam, weeds are up rooted and cropped at their base, the rake also gathers detritus and sludge.
