THE SHORT ANSWER

Is FH-EFGC125 · Hammer blades worth a closer look?

The 48-inch cut and two mounting positions make this a compact-width hammer option. Its advertised blade interchangeability is a different buying choice from WoodMaxx’s configuration-specific rotors, but first resolve the contradictory installed-blade listing and power limits.

The seller confirms the exact setup, current price and delivery. No field test or manufacturer-confirmed pairing is claimed.

THE BUYING PERSPECTIVE

Know before you order.

  • This guide covers FH-EFGC125 with hammer blades and without the optional hydraulic-offset kit. The listed SKU is FH-EFGC125; no distinct hammer-only SKU was found.
  • 22–65 PTO hp on current page. The current product details explicitly label the range as PTO horsepower. The currently linked manual is Revision 12-12-17 despite its /2025/05/ upload path: p23 has a minimum-HP footnote that changes basis to engine horsepower for hydrostatic tractors, while p16 states an 80 PTO hp ceiling. These sources do not establish one reconciled limit for the delivered machine.
  • 48 inches is working/cutting width; 54 inches is overall width. Neither is derived from the model number.
  • Description, specification table, Details and linked manual p23 specify 20 hammers, but Additional information says 40 Y blades are installed and hammers optional. The order form offers a hammer-to-grass swap. This guide evaluates the requested hammer configuration; the delivered default is not independently settled.
  • Current page lists 576 lb product weight and 624 lb crated weight; manual p23 instead lists 600 and 635 lb. No reviewed source verifies a complete shaft/oil-inclusive operating load, so complete operating weight remains unverified.
  • The page and manual p23 list 23.5 or 27.75 inches right of the center mount and two mounting positions. These are not a verified cutting-edge reach or hydraulic travel measurement. Manual p23 documents two hitch mounting positions; p20 instead describes side-to-side adjustment by a handle. Confirm which mechanism and reference dimensions apply to the delivered fixed model. No powered adjustment is assumed.
  • PTO input is 540 rpm (manual pp16,19). Included shear-bolt driveline still requires tractor-specific sizing and setup.
  • The separate hydraulic-offset kit is optional. The base mower does not include its rear-remote, flow, pressure or hose requirements.
  • The page’s 3-inch wooded-material statement is a manufacturer claim without species, moisture or power conditions; it is not a demonstrated capacity or a reason to skip the delivered manual’s operating limits.
  • The current-linked PDF retains Revision 12-12-17. Upload-directory year is not a manual revision or evidence of a newly tested configuration.

Unit weight
Complete operating weight is unverified. Current page: 576 lb “Weight” and 624 lb “Crated Weight.” Linked Rev 12-12-17 manual p23: 600 lb “Weight” and 635 lb crated. Product-weight shaft/oil/assembly inclusions are unstated. Keep these separate; do not use crate weight or silently choose one product figure as an operating load.
Hydraulics
Standard fixed/nonhydraulic offset configuration; no tractor rear-remote circuit is required for an offset cylinder because the hydraulic kit is excluded. The tractor three-point lift is still required. A separate hydraulic-offset kit is offered, but its flow/pressure, valve, couplers and exact installed configuration require a separate check.
Accessories & setup
Page lists an included shear-bolt PTO driveline for standard 1-3/8-inch six-spline input. Main table and manual identify Series 4; confirm exact delivered shaft and sizing. Optional hydraulic-offset kit, blade-swap choice, spare belts/blades and liftgate service are separate order decisions. Assembly and lubrication checks remain required; photo is not evidence of supplied parts.

Specifications are manufacturer-published, not measured by Acreage Equipment. A shipping weight is not treated as operating weight.
