AS MOTOR AS 701 SM Walk-Behind Flail Mower

Tackle Tough Grass with Confidence

The AS 701 SM Flail Mower is engineered to handle demanding terrain and high vegetation with absolute confidence. Built for performance, it handles steep slopes, dense undergrowth, and tall grass up to 100 cm. Powered by a robust Briggs & Stratton Series 3 engine, this machine delivers the force needed for reliable cutting. Its mechanical traction system and clever engineering help you cover large areas quickly and efficiently.

Reliable Engine with High Torque Output

At its core is a 344 cm³ single-cylinder four-stroke engine that produces up to 13 horsepower at 3300 rpm. This engine offers both fuel and oil pump integration, allowing it to operate reliably on uneven or sloped ground. With 7.6 kW rated power, the mower pushes through thick growth without hesitation. You can count on consistent performance, even in the most challenging mowing environments.

Five-Speed Manual Transmission with Reverse

The AS 701 SM includes a mechanical five-speed gearbox, offering forward speeds from 1.1 to 3.6 km/h. A reverse gear is included for better handling in tight or difficult spaces. The power is delivered directly to the wheels through a permanently locked limited-slip differential. This feature ensures superior traction and stability, especially while mowing on steep inclines or uneven surfaces.

Built to Perform on Slopes

The flail mower’s low centre of gravity improves balance when working across sloped or hilly terrain. The vertical engine position helps optimise weight distribution for better handling and safer operation. Combined with the differential lock and added oil pump, it remains stable and effective while cutting on inclined ground. This design minimises the risk of tipping and reduces strain on the operator.

Cutting System Designed for Efficiency

Equipped with 20 pairs of Y-shaped flails, the mower achieves exceptional mulching results across varied vegetation types. These flails are double-sided and mounted on a pendulum-bearing supported unit, which allows them to follow ground contours closely. This results in consistent cutting, even on bumpy or uneven ground. The closed mower deck protects both the engine and operator from flying debris during operation.

Adjustable Cutting Height for Precision Control

The cutting height can be adjusted across six positions between 10 mm and 100 mm using a simple lever mechanism. Whether you’re maintaining fine turf or clearing rough brush, you’ll have full control over cutting results. This flexibility is especially valuable when moving between different vegetation types or working across varied terrain.

Convenient Controls and Safety Features

Four intuitive control levers offer full command over direction, braking, and mowing engagement. The steering and brake clutch system allows independent wheel control for tight turns and gentle steering. Releasing the drive lever immediately activates the automatic parking brake, which ensures the mower halts safely, regardless of slope or ground conditions. This feature is ideal for working in stop-start patterns on complex lawns or hillsides.

Comfortable Handling for Extended Use

Weighing 196 kg, this mower feels balanced and manageable across extended sessions. The handlebar is adjustable in both height and angle to suit the user’s build and preference. Stainless steel Bowden cables are coated with Teflon, reducing the force needed to operate controls. This ensures a smoother experience that’s easier on the hands, especially during longer working days.

Fuel Efficiency and Easy Maintenance

The five-litre transparent fuel tank makes it simple to check levels and refill when needed. This helps avoid unexpected interruptions and boosts productivity across large mowing jobs. With minimal electronic components and robust mechanical parts, the AS 701 SM is built for durability and ease of maintenance.

Built for Professionals, Trusted by Experts

Whether you’re managing overgrown fields, sloped land, or difficult terrain, the AS 701 SM delivers the results you need. Its combination of power, control, and comfort makes it a go-to choice for professionals seeking maximum performance without compromise.
