TYM T5074 · FLAIL MOWERS
WoodMaxx rates its FM-78 flail mowers at 30–65 PTO hp, and the TYM T5074’s 60.2 PTO hp is 4.8 under that ceiling on a Category II hitch. Land Pride FM2572 and FM2584 and Farmry’s HFS87 list Category 2 and run to 80 or 85 hp, which leaves more room.

| Mower | Published requirement | On 60.2 PTO / 71.5 engine hp | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| WoodMaxx FM-78 / FM-78H / FM-78 Y | 30–65 PTO hp; Category 1 and 2 | 4.8 under | Fits |
| Land Pride FM2584 | 49–80 hp, basis unspecified; Category 1 and 2 | Inside on both figures | Fits |
| Land Pride FM2572 | 42–80 hp, basis unspecified; Category 1 and 2 | Inside on both figures | Fits |
| Farmry HFS87 | 30–85 hp, basis unspecified; Category I/II; 87-in. cut | Inside on both figures | Fits on both figures |
| Land Pride FM2560; Farmer-Helper FH-EFGC | Category 1 | Hitch mismatch | Excluded |
| TMG TFM60 / TFMS50 | 30–60 hp table; 50 PTO hp manual cap | Over and hitch mismatch | Excluded |
Land Pride FM2584 (84-inch) and WoodMaxx FM-78 (70-inch) both list Category 2 and fit the T5074. FM-78 stops at 65 PTO hp; FM2584 runs to 80. The comparison below sets them side by side.
TYM lists the T5074 at 81.4 inches wide. FM2584’s 84-inch cut covers that width; FM-78’s 70-inch and FM2572’s 72-inch cuts leave the wheel tracks outside the cut unless the mower is shifted.
TYM lists the Series 5 hitch as Category II. Category 1-only attachments such as Woodland Mills WC88, Land Pride FM2560 and the Farmer-Helper mowers would need bushings or a quick hitch approved in writing; this site screens them out.
TYM’s 2026 brochure lists 3,159 lb 24 inches behind the link ends (4,329 lb at the ends). WoodMaxx FM-78H, the heaviest attachment here at 968 lb, is well under it; check the quoted attachment’s weight with its shaft and the front ballast the dealer recommends.
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 T5074’s 60.2 PTO hp and 71.5 engine hp are both inside that range, so the basis does not change the result. Its published lift at 24 inches, 3,159 lb, carries that weight with 1,860 lb to spare; check front ballast all the same. Farmry rates the gearbox at only 50 hp, below this tractor’s 60.2 PTO hp; ask Farmry how hard it can be driven. 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.
