Introduction

Table of Contents

Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners.

This AFM40 All-Flex Grooming Mower has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The 11, 14, and 16 foot All-Flex Mowers are designed and built by Land Pride to provide excellent cutting quality and performance on lush type turf grasses that are located on expansive and well manicured areas such as sports fields, theme parks, fairways, turf farms, and large estates.

The AFM4011 requires attachment to a 30-65 hp turf tractor while the AFM4014 and AFM4016 will deliver excellent performance when attached to 40-70 hp tractors. All AFM models are adapted for attachment to 540 rpm pull-type draw bar. They can be ordered with slip-clutch or conventional wing driveline configurations.

The mower offers independent deck flotation and zero turning radius due to the sleek frame design. When you need to transport one of these mowers from one mowing site to another on a public street or right-of-way the hydraulic wing cylinders will easily lift up the wing decks for a 5’-6" transport width on the AFM4011 or 6’-8" transport width on the AFM4014 and AFM4016 mowers.The contour following capability, highly productive cutting widths, and rear discharge design of the floating cutting decks will greatly reduce wide-area cutting times and still deliver finely groomed surfaces at mowing speeds from 2-6 mph.

See “Section 6: Specifications & Capacities” and

“Section 7: Features & Benefits” for additional information and performance enhancing options.
