Kubota BX2380 · FLAIL MOWERS

Flail mowers for the Kubota BX2380

On the BX2380, a mower that is slightly wider than the tractor can still leave a tire track outside the cut because its cutting position is asymmetric. Compare the LFS diagrams with the actual tractor, then review complete operating load against the 680 lb lift reference at 24 inches. The documented tractor has 17.7 PTO hp; its 21.6 engine hp cannot clear a PTO-specific 20-hp minimum.

THE DECISION IN NUMBERS

Cutting width and cutting position are different checks

Kubota’s BX2380 brochure gives 45.1 inches of overall width. The differences below are arithmetic references, not measured overlap or fit approval. Farmry’s left/right figures come from the working-width diagram; WoodMaxx’s separate offset figures do not establish the cutting edges.

Scroll the table sideways on smaller screens.

MowerCut versus 45.1-in tractor referencePosition or weight evidenceWhat still needs an answer
Farmry LFS4545.3 in; only 0.2 in wider overallDiagram: 20.4 in left / 24.9 in right; 355 lb with shaftMeasure both tire edges from the hitch centerline; a total-width comparison alone is insufficient
Farmry LFS5353.1 in; 8.0 in wider overallDiagram: 20.4 in left / 32.8 in right; 395 lb with shaftThe extra width is to the right in the depicted position, not evenly added to both sides

Sources for this decision table (10)

Widening from LFS45 to LFS53 does not add reach equally

The Rev 1.7 diagram keeps the listed left-side dimension at 20.4 inches while the right-side figure changes from 24.9 to 32.8. Its rounded dimensions should not be treated as an installation drawing for your tractor, but they reveal why total cut width is an incomplete test. Measure each outside tire edge relative to the hitch centerline and ask the seller to locate the cutting edges in the permitted mounting position. LFS53’s larger total width does not, by itself, answer a left-track coverage problem.

A hammer selection can change the power result

FM-54 Y-blades use a 15–25 PTO-hp range, which includes the BX2380’s 17.7. The same manual gives 20–25 for the hammer configuration, which 17.7 does not reach. WoodMaxx also says the equipped blade configurations are not interchangeable. Specify Y-blades on the quote and matching manual rather than assuming the page’s general 15-hp headline covers every option. Farmry’s LFS range remains 15–35 hp without an engine/PTO label; both BX2380 figures are inside the numbers, but the basis still needs confirmation.

Compare the exact mass basis before asking about transport

LFS45 and LFS53 differ by 40 lb on the manual’s shaft-inclusive basis: 355 versus 395. FM-54 lists 408 lb product weight in its manual, while the page gives 410 lb mower-only plus a 39 lb shaft. Those conflicting definitions prevent a clean operating-mass ranking. Kubota’s 680 lb at 24 inches is a lift measurement, not a generic attachment allowance. Obtain the actual load center, ballast requirement and permitted lift travel; do not subtract a mower figure from 680 to claim spare capacity.

Set the cutting-height requirement before accepting the quote

FM-54’s current manual gives a 3/4–3-1/2-inch cutting-height range; the page gives 3/4–2-1/2 inches. That discrepancy matters if the intended finish lies above the page’s upper value. Ask which adjustment range applies to the delivered Y-blade mower. Also have the installer check the rear roller, skids, PTO guards and shaft through the BX’s permitted working and transport positions. Category I identifies the hitch category; it does not settle usable lift height or clearance.

Farmer-Helper FH-EF standard-duty mowers

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 Kubota BX2380’s 17.7 PTO hp is inside the EF95 / EF105 but short of the EF125’s 20-hp minimum. Its published lift at 24 inches, 680 lb, carries even the 347-lb EF105 with 333 lb to spare. Betstco listed them at $1,462 and $1,547 on November 14, 2026, with the PTO shaft included.
