KIOTI CK4020 · FLAIL MOWERS
The CK4020 has 39.6 gross engine hp and either 34.8 or 33.3 PTO hp. That creates an unusual Farmry LFS question: PTO power falls within its advertised 15–35 hp range while engine power exceeds it. Until the maker states the basis, the answer stays unresolved.

BEST MATCHES FOR THE CK4020
19 of 23 flail mowers we track pass the published power, hitch and speed screen on at least one configuration. Each still has a detail to confirm with the seller.

For LFS45, LFS53 and LFS61, an engine-based 35 hp ceiling would exclude 39.6 engine hp. A PTO-based ceiling would include both documented CK4020 transmissions. Do not silently choose the interpretation that creates a match; get the exact revision’s requirement from Farmry.
Both CK4020 outputs sit within TMG’s generic 30–60 hp range and below the manual’s separate 50 PTO-hp maximum. That does not resolve the advertised-versus-manual width and weight differences. Confirm the operating package before treating TMG’s 650 lb page figure as a planning input.
The CK4020 shares the brochure’s 1,631 lb at-24-inch rating with CK2620 and CK3520. A 61-inch LFS or roughly 60-inch TMG may also cover a different portion of your tire track. Measure your actual wheel setup and confirm load center, ballast and any hydraulic side-shift plumbing separately.
Farmry rates the HFS87 at 30–85 hp without saying whether that is PTO or engine power, lists Category I and II, cuts 87 inches and weighs 1,299 lb with the shaft. The KIOTI CK4020’s 34.8 / 33.3 PTO hp and 39.6 engine hp are both inside that range, so the basis does not change the result. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,631 lb, is only 332 lb more than the mower’s weight, so weigh the complete mower and check ballast first. Its gearbox rating, 50 hp, is not below this tractor’s PTO power. The 87-inch cut is 3 inches wider than Land Pride’s FM2584. Farmry’s page listed it at $4,499 on November 14, 2026.
Farmer-Helper rates its standard-duty FH-EF mowers by PTO power, all to 45 PTO hp with a 45-hp gearbox: the EF95 (37-inch cut) from 15, the EF105 (41-inch) from 16 and the EF125 (48-inch) from 20. They carry Y-blades for grass and light brush. The KIOTI CK4020’s 34.8 / 33.3 PTO hp is inside all three. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,631 lb, carries even the 390-lb EF125 with 1,241 lb to spare. Betstco listed them at $1,462, $1,547 and $1,632 on November 14, 2026, with the PTO shaft included.
