KIOTI NS6010 flail mowers: Category 2 leaves FM-78, Land Pride and Farmry’s HFS87

With the Category II hitch on KIOTI’s current documents, the NS6010’s flail list shrinks to WoodMaxx FM-78 (Category 1 or 2 with bushings) and Land Pride’s Category I/II FM2572 and FM2584. FM-78 and FM2572 are inside on every figure. FM2584’s 49-hp minimum is 0.7–1.2 above the NS6010’s PTO figures and 8.7 below its engine rating, and Land Pride does not say which it means.

THE DECISION IN NUMBERS

Flail screens on a Category 2 NS6010: 48.3 (synchro) / 47.9 (HST) PTO hp, 57.7 gross engine hp

Tractor reference: KIOTI NS6010 and NS6010H; Category II in the brochure and on the web pages, Category I in the 2021 manual; 67.1 in. minimum width. NS6010H web PTO 47.8. KIOTI’s manual has no flail-mower row.

Which mowers list Category 2

WoodMaxx’s current manual supports FM-78 on Category 1 or 2 with Category 2 bushings, though lower text on its page says Category 1 only. Land Pride lists the FM25 series as Category I/II. The other flails on this site list Category 1. Confirm the bushing set or pins on the order, and the lower-link ends on the tractor.

FM2584 and the basis

Land Pride rates FM2584 at 49–80 tractor hp without naming engine or PTO. The NS6010’s PTO figures are 48.3 (synchro), 47.9 (HST brochure) and 47.8 (HST web): 0.7 to 1.2 short. Its 57.7 gross engine hp is 8.7 over. FM2584 is a choice only if Land Pride confirms an engine basis. FM2572’s 42-hp minimum is cleared on every figure.

Width on a 67.1-inch tractor

The NS6010 is 67.1 inches at minimum width. FM-78 cuts 70 inches (80 overall on its page), FM2572 72 (84 overall) and FM2584 84 (96 overall): all span the rear tires. KIOTI’s manual lists implement limits for loaders, blades, rotary cutters and others, but not for flail mowers. Ask KIOTI which limit applies to an 84-inch flail.

Lift and weight

WoodMaxx lists FM-78 at 880 lb in its manual (710 lb plus a 39-lb shaft on its page). Land Pride lists FM2584 at 1,236 lb with a duckfoot rotor and no complete hammer weight. KIOTI’s manual gives 2,493 lb at 24 inches; the brochure prints 2,940. Ask for complete operating weights and front-ballast advice.

Farmry HFS87: 87-inch cut, Category I and II

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 NS6010’s 48.3 / 47.9 PTO hp and 57.7 engine hp are both inside that range, so the basis does not change the result. Its published lift at 24 inches, 2,493 lb, carries that weight with 1,194 lb to spare; check front ballast all the same. 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.
