30EX Excavator Flail Mower

The 30EX Excavator Flail Mower is a tough, lightweight, and highly versatile attachment designed to safely cut and mulch grass, brush, vines, and small trees. Built for compact excavators and backhoes, this powerful mower quickly converts your machine into a long-reach boom mower, allowing operators to clear overgrown areas, fence lines, ditches, and tree lines with precision.

Weighing only 792 lbs, the 30EX delivers exceptional cutting performance while maintaining efficiency on smaller machines. It utilizes the same rugged cutter drum design found on the larger 40EX Hammer-Head, providing professional-grade durability and mulching capability in a compact package. With a 30-inch cutting width and a combination of 18 slicer knives and 9 center knives, the mower delivers aggressive cutting power to tackle dense vegetation and brush up to 3.5 inches in diameter.

Designed for excavators in the 8,000–13,000 lb class, the 30EX operates on hydraulic flows between 15–38 GPM, making it compatible with a wide range of compact equipment without sacrificing performance.
