TYM T474 · FLAIL MOWERS
At 35.9 PTO hp and 48.3 engine hp, the T474 is above the 35-hp ceiling of Farmry’s LFS mowers on both readings. WoodMaxx’s FM-62 and FM-78 families are inside their PTO ranges, and Land Pride’s FM2572 depends on what its 42-hp minimum means. The T474 is also narrow, at 54.5 inches overall, so even a 55-inch mower can cover its wheels.

Farmry rates LFS45, LFS53 and LFS61 at 15–35 hp without naming engine or PTO. The T474’s 48.3 engine hp is well over that, and its 35.9 PTO hp is 0.9 over. TYM’s own kilowatt figure (26.4 kW, about 35.4 hp) is still above 35. On every reading the T474 is outside the LFS range, so the light Farmry mowers are not a fallback here.
Land Pride lists FM2572 at 42–80 tractor hp without saying engine or PTO, and ties the minimum to speed, terrain, material and moisture. The T474 clears it by 6.3 on engine power and misses by 6.1 on PTO power. FM2560 (33–80) is cleared either way, and FM2584 (49–80) is missed either way. Ask a Land Pride dealer which figure the 42 refers to before treating FM2572 as a choice.
TYM lists the T474 at 54.5 inches overall and does not publish rear track. WoodMaxx’s FM-62 cuts 55 inches, FM2560 60 and FM-78 70. On a tractor this narrow, even the 55-inch mower is close to the overall width, but rear track and mower offset decide whether the cut covers the wheel path. Measure the tractor across the outside of the rear tires and ask each seller for the mower’s cut position relative to the centerline.
The Series 3 table gives the T474’s lift at 24 inches as “1764 lb | 673 kg”. The two units differ by about 280 lb: 673 kg is about 1,484 lb. Every retained mower weight here is below both, from LFS61’s 421 lb to FM-78’s 880-lb manual figure, so the conflict does not change a screen. It still matters for ballast. Ask for the operator-manual figure and the complete mower weight with shaft.
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 TYM T474’s 35.9 PTO hp and 48.3 engine hp are both inside that range, so the basis does not change the result. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,764 lb, carries that weight with 465 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.
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 TYM T474’s 35.9 PTO hp is inside all three. Its published lift at 24 inches, 1,764 lb, carries even the 390-lb EF125 with 1,374 lb to spare. This tractor has the power for heavier mowers; the FH-EF line suits grass and light growth, not thick brush. Betstco listed them at $1,462, $1,547 and $1,632 on November 14, 2026, with the PTO shaft included.
